How to get from Da Nang Airport to Hue?

From Da Nang Airport to Hue, it is most convenient to travel by taxi or a pre-booked transfer. The trip will take about 2 hours (distance approximately 100 km) and will cost from 1,000,000 Vietnamese dong (about 40-45 dollars).

Hue has its own airport, but there are few flights there, so often flying into Da Nang and then getting to Hue by ground transport turns out to be more convenient and cheaper. Here are your main options:

• Taxi / App (Grab, Xanh SM): The most direct and comfortable way. The trip will take ~2 hours. The price in apps is fixed and will be approximately 1,000,000 – 1,500,000 dong. You can order it right at the airport using free Wi-Fi.
• Pre-booked transfer: Ideal for a family or group. The driver will meet you with a sign, help with luggage. The price is known in advance, you can book on sites like Kiwitaxi.
• Taxi to the bus station + intercity bus: A more budget-friendly but troublesome option. You need to take a taxi (about 100,000 dong) to Da Nang bus station, buy a ticket for a bus to Hue (another about 80,000 – 120,000 dong). Total travel time with waiting can be 3+ hours.
• Train: A scenic but not the most practical route from the airport. First, you need to get by taxi to Da Nang railway station (15 min.), then take a train to Hue (2.5-3 hours on the way). The schedule may not match your arrival.

Recommendation: If you are not on a tight budget and are traveling with luggage, choose a taxi via app or transfer. You will save time and energy, which is better spent on sightseeing in Hue.
