Hoi An Ancient Town Ticket Price From Da Nang

At the entrance counters you choose between a VND 80,000 and a VND 120,000 old-town ticket; budget VND 120,000 for the fuller tier. The city's VND 20,000 per-structure rate applies from 10 August 2026, but the counter notice still lists only the two tiers. From Da Nang a taxi takes about 45 minutes and bus 02 about 90.

The ticket is the entry to the old town itself, not only to its buildings, because the VND 80,000 ticket covers the shared public scenery as well as sites. You buy it at counters at the entrances on Tran Phu, Nguyen Thai Hoc and Le Loi. How strictly street entry is checked is not confirmed.

We recommend the VND 120,000 ticket if you want broader access to historic homes and museums. In November 2026 the heritage centre’s ticket notice still sells just these two tickets. The city’s VND 20,000 per-structure fee from 10 August 2026 has not replaced them, so bring VND 80,000 or VND 120,000 per person.

Hoi An old town ticket price

The standard ticket costs VND 80,000, and it covers the town scenery, a heritage site like Chua Cau, plus 2 cultural buildings. If you also want museums, the expanded VND 120,000 ticket covers the same scenery and adds 3 cultural buildings.

City regulations also set an individual structure rate of VND 20,000 per person from 10 August 2026, though the counter notice still lists only the two tiers. Foreign travelers and local visitors pay the same fee.

Who Hoi An old town suits (and who should skip it)

We recommend Hoi An to anyone who loves exploring picturesque streets on foot. Walking or cycling works best because motorized vehicles are restricted for many hours of the day, and if you want a peaceful stroll without motorbike traffic, head out in the early morning.

Dress respectfully inside pagodas and assembly halls, and don’t bring food or drinks into heritage sites.

Do not smoke, touch ancient artifacts, or make loud noise inside heritage properties.

How to get to Hoi An from Da Nang

Hoi An sits about 30 km from Da Nang, so a direct taxi ride takes about 45 minutes. A GrabCar ride from Da Nang starts at about VND 280,000, cheaper than the airport’s fixed taxi fare of about VND 400,000.

If you want to save money, city bus route 02 runs from Da Nang Central Bus Station. It is slower, about 90 minutes for the whole run, and it runs 5:15 AM to 5:50 PM every day, so plan your return around the 5:50 PM last bus.

The bus drops you directly at the Hai Ba Trung parking area in Hoi An. Single fares cost up to VND 30,000 depending on distance, while students always pay a flat VND 8,000. See Da Nang Public Bus: Routes, Fares and Hours for the rest of the network. Once you arrive, pick up your ticket at the entrance counters along Tran Phu, Nguyen Thai Hoc, or Le Loi.

When to go

We recommend visiting between February and April for pleasant spring temperatures and gentle sunshine. The rainy season runs from September through January, so expect frequent showers, and the old town can even flood in October and November.

Plan your walk around the vehicle restrictions, which begin at 09:00. They run until 21:00 during winter, and in summer pedestrian hours last until 21:30.

Nearby and how to combine it

You can pair your trip with Marble Mountains, whose management board office is at 81 Huyen Tran Cong Chua Street. Another cultural stop is the Museum of Cham Sculpture at 02 2 Thang 9 Street, Da Nang. Two other single-day routes from Da Nang: the Ba Na Hills ticket price and how to get there, and the Hai Van Pass route from Da Nang to Hue.

Before you go

Hold onto your ticket stub after visiting sites so you can re-enter the town without hassle. Your ticket remains valid for up to 3 days throughout your stay, and tour groups buying 8 or more tickets receive a free guide.

Pack sunscreen and a hat during the hot summer months, and bring an umbrella if you visit during the rainy season. Never drop litter on the streets or touch ancient artifacts inside heritage properties.
