Where is Mad Monkey Hoi An?

Located perfectly between the historical UNESCO old town and some of Vietnam’s most incredible beaches, the hostel sits on a peaceful bend of the main road connecting the two areas. It overlooks the river and is surrounded by rice paddies and palm trees.

Mad Monkey Hoi An is fully equipped to cater to most of your backpacking needs, however, the local neighbourhood is also full of small convenience stores. Anything more that you’re looking for can be found within a leisurely cycle or short taxi trip.

 

How to get to Mad Monkey Hoi An from Da Nang Airport

 

Private Pickup:
The easiest and quickest way to get directly to our hostel is to book a private car through us, which will cost around $20. Just let us know your details in advance so we can have someone ready and waiting on your arrival.

By Taxi / Grab:
Your second option is to get a taxi or use the Southeast Asian equivalent to Uber, Grab. Prices can vary depending on the time you are travelling and also the weather. Generally a taxi / Grab will cost you around $25-30.

We highly recommend calling a taxi from the desk inside of the airport as taxi scams are known to happen and will often overcharge you. Agree on a price beforehand and be prepared to put your bartering skills to good use!
