Question
How many days should I spend in Da Nang city.
Answer
We recommend at least 4-5 days (including wedding day). It is a beautiful beach town with many beautiful and fun places to visit and great local cuisine to explore.
Question
What are the options for flying into Da Nang (DAD)?
Answer
There are no direct flights to Da Nang from California, so you have a couple of options: 1. You can fly directly to Ho Chi Minh (SGN) then take another short flight to Da Nang (DAD). If you choose this option we would recommend to visit Ho Chi Minh for a couple days to explore the biggest city of Vietnam. 2. You can have a stop over in another country (typically Taiwan, South Korea, or Japan), then fly to Da Nang (DAD). This is recommended if you would like to visit one of the above countries, we love this option because if you have a long layover it allows you to explore for a bit.
