Hue to Da Nang Destination Reviews

Tour operator was communicative throughout, and let me know there would be a delay (15 mins, which was understandable as visible traffic). The only thing that prevented this from being a comfortable journey was that the gentleman in front of me had his seat reclined so far back, there was barely any room for my legs. Had to sit sideways with legs up. As was sitting in the back row, no option to recline for more space. Left feeling a little cramped during the two hour journey. While this is not the operators fault, there should be some rule in place if the bus is at capacity to ensure comfort for all passengers.

The bus reeked of cigarettes and body odour. There was leftover garbage from previous guests in the seats, and none of the massage chair functions worked. The only saving grace was that the driver got us to our return destination ahead of schedule. It’s too bad it was so unpleasant and uncomfortable.

Joar, booked a trip from Hue to Danang in the morning. The tour was due to start at 11am. On Whatapp I was told that there was a problem and the tour wouldn't start until 2pm ... Not so cool. But otherwise the trip was good.

The operator immediately informed me of my reservation error, which made me feel at ease. We would also like to thank you for contacting us regarding the refund.
But
The driver was very scary. He was speeding too much, honking his horn and passing other cars one after another to the right and then to the left. We said we were scared, but our words could not be understood, so we braced ourselves for an accident.

Really good trip in a comfortable vehicle, dropped us off at our hotel in da nang. However the bus did leave 40 minutes earlier than scheduled, this was fine for us as didn’t affect our plans and they arranged it the day before but worth thinking about when booking.
Bus travel remains one of the most affordable and convenient ways to travel between many destinations. Getting from Hue to Da Nang by bus may not be the fastest way of travel, yet many travellers prefer to rely on the bus on this route; with easy online booking and tickets of different classes for all tastes and budgets available, the bus from Hue to Da Nang a conscious and budget-friendly option.
Check the timetable before you book your ticket and read other travellers’ reviews to choose the trip that suits you best. Note that there may be several bus terminals at your departure or arrival point – always double-check where you are leaving from and arriving to. It may prove crucial if you have connecting trips.
Here is the list of operators serving the route: .
How far is Hue from Da Nang?
If travelling by bus, you will cover the distance of 75 km between Hue and Da Nang.
How long does it take to get from Hue to Da Nang by bus?
Buses normally need between 1h 30m and 3h 15m hours to get to Da Nang from Hue. Note that the travel time is for your reference only and can depend on different factors such as traffic and weather conditions. Heavy rainfalls almost inevitably make the trip longer due to poor visibility or floods. Road and surface repairs which happen quite often, result in detours and longer travel times. Major national holidays, long weekends, or peak season periods may cause delays both in departures and arrivals – plan accordingly to avoid disappointment, especially if you have further connections and a tight schedule.
On this route, Huong Giang Limousine offers the fastest service. Queen Cafe Bus buses usually take the longest time to complete the journey.
Remember, though, that tickets offering the shortest travel time are normally the most expensive ones. Yet it pays to spend a bit more to ensure your bus goes direct without additional stops and uses highways instead of local roads.
How much does it cost to get from Hue to Da Nang by bus?
The price of your bus ticket will depend not only on the distance you need to cover but on the class of your coach. E.g. expect to shell out more for VIP or sleeper buses while ordinary buses though being the cheapest option, often are a compromise on comfort and travel time. Of course, they do their job, too, and can be the only option if you hop on/off in the middle of the route.
Anyway, travelling by bus between Hue and Da Nang remains an affordable option. The cheapest ticket is offered by Huong Giang Limousine and costs USD 6.51. A Duc Duong Bus's ticket will set you back USD 6.51 on average.
Travelling by bus essentials
If you are planning to travel during the high season, weekends, or national holidays, booking your bus tickets in advance is highly recommended. The demand is at its highest, yet very often, the number of coaches serving the route remains the same. The earlier you reserve your seat, the better. On some routes, you need to secure your ticket more than a month in advance; on others, a couple-of-days advanced booking is enough. During such periods, try to book online beforehand whenever possible, as showing up at the bus station without a ticket may result in many-hours of waiting in the queue or leave you downright stranded.
VIP, 1st, Gold, and similar bus tickets are the most expensive option, but they provide a higher level of comfort. Normally the price of such tickets will include wide soft reclining seats, blankets, water and snacks or lunch, and sometimes some toiletries. Upper-class buses travel faster, make fewer stops during the route, and normally provide more spacious seating to their passengers and a better travel experience.
Not all buses have an on-board toilet, but generally, for all trips longer than three hours, all operators schedule a bathroom and/or a lunch stop. While operators definitely do their best to keep on-board toilets clean, the smell may be an issue sometimes. For longer trips, booking a seat a bit farther from the toilet may be a good idea. Also, using bathroom stops for your toilet needs is always better than trying to find your balance in an on-board toilet on the run.
If you travel by an air-con bus, make sure to pack layers. A hoodie, a warm scarf, or a beanie hat may prove a good idea. Air-conditioning on buses tends to be excessive, and running nose and sore throats abound after even not the longest bus rides.
Always use the security belts even if your bus ride attendant or driver does not insist on it. Your safety comes first – for you, for sure. All buses normally are equipped with security belts, but they may be fixed behind your seat. Take time to find the belt and fix it appropriately.
To avoid being disturbed by overhead lights, switched on during stops even at night, and too loud music or sound from the on-board entertainment system, have earplugs and a sleeping mask at hand.
As a courtesy to other passengers, avoid using strong perfumes or smelly foods. Some foods like cheeses or durians are forbidden to take on-board – check in advance. Alcohol is also prohibited on the majority of buses.
Note that if the bus requires refuelling en-route, passengers will be asked to get off the bus. Operators are not allowed to refuel with passengers on board due to safety reasons. Usually, it takes from 5 to 10 minutes and is often combined with a toilet/lunch stop.
If not stated otherwise in your tickets, arrive at the bus station 20-30 minutes before departure. It will give you enough time to find the departure platform and check-in. For international trips, you may need more time for check-in and border formalities.
