I didn't get your email about the cancellation of the flight and had to wait 8 hours in the airport untill the next flight. On top of that, the new flight was an hour late and we had to wail in the heat for the bus to pick us up to the plain

We understand delays but we arrived 12 hours later then expected. We had to wait all these time in the train. Communication in English was limited and not understandable. We appreciated the additional food.

Beds were very hard and thin. Not comfortable for sleeping. Luckily we had the cabin to ourselves. DeLuxe cabin turned out to be standard cabin. The host Cee Kay was very friendly and helpful.

Tipping taxi drivers in Da Nang is not a common practice, but it is appreciated. Most fares include the cost of the ride, and drivers don’t expect additional tips. However, rounding up to the nearest 10,000 VND or leaving small change is seen as courteous, especially for good service. Some taxi companies, such as Mai Linh or Vinasun, have consistent pricing and reliable drivers. If you receive exceptional service, such as help with heavy luggage or efficient route navigation, a modest tip is a kind gesture. Keep in mind that cash is preferred since digital tipping options may not be available.

Standard tipping: Rounding up the fare.
Cash tips are most appreciated.
Helpful for exceptional service but not required.

Offering a tip is entirely at your discretion but shows gratitude in a way drivers understand.

Da Nang, a coastal city, provides a more relaxed lifestyle with clean beaches, modern infrastructure, and a warmer, tropical climate. It’s popular among expats seeking a balance between work and leisure, especially with its proximity to UNESCO sites like Hoi An and My Son.

Hanoi: Capital, cultural hub, cooler climate.
Da Nang: Coastal, relaxed, warmer weather.
Key factors: career, climate, lifestyle.

Both cities offer distinct advantages, so evaluate personal priorities when choosing.

For tourist attractions, such as the Marble Mountains or the Dragon Bridge, visits typically end by 6 PM or after the evening light shows.

Restaurants: Close by 9–10 PM.
Malls: Typically close around 9:30 PM.
