    Transport
    • Old Quarter TravelOperatorWritten June 2024

      Yes I can arrange transfer to Danang airport form Hue on last day of this trip. But it's $45 extra. You can pay for the extra later.

      Tom

      TravelerWritten June 2024

      How long does it take to get there? We have a flight at 10 am to Hong Kong. If we need to, we can go to Da Nang, and spend the night before the flight the next day.

    • Old Quarter TravelOperatorWritten June 2024

      It takes about 2 hours from Hue to Danang airport. So you need to leave Hue at around 5.30am. I can arrange a car to Danang and hotel in Danang for last day if needed.
