Hoi An Getting there & around

Getting around

Anywhere within town can be reached on foot. To go further afield, rent a bicycle from 10, 000d per day – check with your hotel as it may provide them free. Cross the An Hoi Footbridge for a pleasant walk or ride through attractive rural countryside. A motorbike without/with a driver will cost around US$6/10 per day. Hire places are located all over town.

A taxi to the beach costs a couple of dollars.

Boat

A boat trip on the Thu Bon River can be a fascinating experience. A simple rowing boat, complete with rower, costs something like US$2 per hour, and one hour is probably long enough for most travellers. Some My Son tours offer part of the journey by boat – a lovely but lengthy voyage.

Boats that carry up to five people can be hired to visit handicraft and fishing villages in the area; expect to pay around US$4 per hour. Look for the boats near the dock close to the market.
