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!
