🚕 Right after arriving at Da Nang Airport, where should you go?

Hello 😊

Once you get off the plane and make it through immigration, the very first question on your mind is: "How do I get to my hotel?" 🤔

Da Nang Airport is very close to the city center, so getting around isn't difficult in itself, but each mode of transportation definitely has its own pros and cons.

Today, I'll compare pickup services, taxis, and ride-hailing apps for you!

✈️ Basic information that's helpful to know in advance

✔️ International flights depart from Terminal 2 (T2), and domestic flights depart from Terminal 1.

✔️ It's about 3–5 km from the airport to the city center, so you can get there in just 10–15 minutes by car.

✔️ The taxi stand and the pickup spot for ride-hailing apps are in different places, so be sure to check the signs!

🚐 1. Pickup Vehicle – The Most Convenient Choice

If you book in advance, the driver will be waiting for you at the arrivals hall holding a sign with your name on it.

👍 Best for late-night arrivals, traveling with kids or parents, and when you have lots of luggage

👍 Go straight to your hotel's front door with no haggling

👎 The fare tends to be a bit higher than booking through the app

🚖 2. Airport Taxi – When You Want to Ride Right Away

You can take a taxi at the taxi stand right in front after exiting the arrivals hall.

👍 Board right away without an app

👍 Taxis from large companies like Mai Linh (green) and Vinasun (white with green stripes) are safe

👎 Make sure to check that the meter is turned on! Avoid private drivers who solicit customers ⚠️

📱 3. Ride-Hailing Apps – Best Value for Money

Grab and the electric taxi Green SM (formerly Xanh SM) are the most popular options.

👍 The destination and fare are set in advance, so there's no need to worry about being overcharged

👍 Register your card and you can pay without cash

👎 During peak hours or on rainy days, fares may go up or wait times may be longer ☔

✅ Things to check before departure

📶 Get your SIM·eSIM ready → Call a ride on the app as soon as you arrive

📲 Install the Grab app & register your card in advance while you're still in Korea!

🏨 Save a screenshot of your hotel address in English and Vietnamese

💵 At the airport, exchange only enough for transportation and a light meal

🕙 If you're arriving late at night, we recommend booking a pickup vehicle
