Hanoi to Da Nang Destination Reviews

Booked a cabin of 6 beds for 5 people at the same time thinking that it would put us all in the same cabin. Only to find out that we were all separated it would have been good to advise us at the time of the booking. Ended up paying one of the employees on the train USD $90 to get a least 4 of us together in separate cabins

Definitely ordered a vip cabin bus but a limousine bus came instead. Not the worst but not what I paid for. Seats were not too uncomfortable and the curtains each side were useful.

We waited 1h for the driver to have his 3 ice creams, 2 coffees just to stop 5 min after to fil l the tank. The bus is very filthy and old. The bathroom stank of urine, everyone was going in there without slippers and stepping in the filth just to drag it across the bus. My journey was from Hanoi to Danang, they woke us up by screaming at us at 7AM in Hue, they made us change buses, carry our luggage all by screaming and shouting at us. This company is a total joke. Staff is very rude, they don't speak english they just shout and point to things. Book with any other operator if you have some self respect

Very professional company, but still feels personal and easy to deal with. The team was responsive on WhatsApp and kept me updated the whole time. Pickup was on time, the bus was clean and comfortable, and everything went pretty smoothly. Overall, a reliable option if you want a stress-free trip.

Should I tip taxi in Da Nang?

Tipping taxi drivers in Da Nang is not a common practice, but it is appreciated. Most fares include the cost of the ride, and drivers don’t expect additional tips. However, rounding up to the nearest 10,000 VND or leaving small change is seen as courteous, especially for good service. Some taxi companies, such as Mai Linh or Vinasun, have consistent pricing and reliable drivers. If you receive exceptional service, such as help with heavy luggage or efficient route navigation, a modest tip is a kind gesture. Keep in mind that cash is preferred since digital tipping options may not be available.
  • Standard tipping: Rounding up the fare.
  • Cash tips are most appreciated.
  • Helpful for exceptional service but not required.
Offering a tip is entirely at your discretion but shows gratitude in a way drivers understand.

Is it better to live in Hanoi or Da Nang?

The decision depends on lifestyle preferences, work, and climate. Hanoi, Vietnam’s capital, offers rich history, cultural landmarks, and a larger urban economy, making it ideal for career opportunities and experiencing northern traditions. However, its traffic congestion and cooler winters may deter some. Da Nang, a coastal city, provides a more relaxed lifestyle with clean beaches, modern infrastructure, and a warmer, tropical climate. It’s popular among expats seeking a balance between work and leisure, especially with its proximity to UNESCO sites like Hoi An and My Son.
  • Hanoi: Capital, cultural hub, cooler climate.
  • Da Nang: Coastal, relaxed, warmer weather.
  • Key factors: career, climate, lifestyle.
Both cities offer distinct advantages, so evaluate personal priorities when choosing.
