How long does it take to travel from Da Nang to Ho Chi Minh City by bus?

The bus journey from Da Nang to Ho Chi Minh City takes approximately 14-16 hours. These are overnight trips that depart from Da Nang in the evening (usually between 6:00 PM and 10:00 PM) and arrive in Ho Chi Minh City the next morning.

This format allows you not to waste daytime on travel and save on one night in a hotel. However, it is important to understand that this is the longest and least comfortable of all the main options. The road is bumpy, and in a regular sleeper bus, there is very little personal space.

What to take with you on the road:

• Warm clothing or a blanket (the air conditioning in buses works strongly).
• Earplugs or headphones.
• An eye mask for sleeping.
• A bottle of water and a light snack.

If you are ready for such conditions for significant savings (tickets start from 500,000 dong), then this option is for you. For more details on bus types, carriers, and nuances of ticket purchase, see our detailed guide: How to get from Da Nang to Ho Chi Minh City.
