Getting Around in Da Nang
- Da Nang is spread along the coast, so motorbike rental (VND 100k–150k/day) is the most practical way to get around. Traffic is calmer than Hanoi or Saigon
- Grab works excellently for motorbike (GrabBike) and car rides. Short trips: VND 15k–30k. Airport to city: VND 80k–120k. Much cheaper than taxis
- Walking is feasible along the beach and in the city centre but distances between attractions (Marble Mountains, Son Tra) require wheels
