🚖 Transportation
We only used Grab once, from the airport to the hotel on the first day. 💡
Then, we happened to meet a very nice driver, so we decided to add him on Line. After that, we always called him via Line, and he charged us a little cheaper than on the app. Plus, they were so friendly and chatty! 🥰
This is a great little trick that saved me a lot on travel costs.

🏨 Accommodation
We chose a hotel for around 3,000 baht for 3 nights (splitting it with friends wasn't expensive at all).
The accommodation was clean, the bed was comfortable, and it was easy to get to. Most importantly, it was close to food and cafes, and the atmosphere was chill.
⸻
🍜 Food
The entire trip cost us 3,054 baht per person.
👉 What I liked was that Vietnamese food wasn't expensive at all. There was a wide variety, including pho, noodles, Vietnamese bread (Bánh mì), and strong, sweet Vietnamese coffee.
We ate everything from savory dishes to desserts and cafes, but the prices were incredibly reasonable! 🥹

🛍 Souvenirs
• Prices in Vietnam aren't too high at all. There are so many cute food and souvenirs.
• But be mindful of yourself 😂 because when you're shopping at markets or souvenir shops, you'll end up over budget without realizing it.

📖 Day-by-Day Review
🛬 Day 1: Bangkok → Da Nang
• Traveled with AirAsia, a short flight of about 1.5 hours, arriving in Da Nang in the afternoon.
• Used Grab from the airport to the hotel. The driver was super nice, so I secretly added him on Line 🥰. Since then, I've been calling him everywhere, and it's a little cheaper than using Grab.
• Checked in at the hotel (approximately 3,000 baht for 3 nights). The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable, and it was close to restaurants and cafes.
• This evening, I went for a walk along the Han River. The atmosphere was nice, the breeze was cool, and I saw the Dragon Bridge. 🌉 The lights were beautiful at night.
• For my first meal, I tried authentic Vietnamese Pho and Bánh Mì. Priced in the tens, but packed with flavor! 🍜🥖

🌊 Day 2: Bana Hills – Golden Bridge
• In the morning, head up Bana Hills, the highlight of Da Nang 🎉
• Ride the long, high cable car for panoramic mountain and forest views. 🌿

🏮 Day 3: Hoi An Ancient Town
• Take a drive to Hoi An, a beautiful World Heritage Site. 🏮
• During the day, stroll around the ancient wooden houses. Souvenir shops and cafes offer a slow-paced atmosphere.
• As night falls, the entire city lights up with colorful lanterns, incredibly romantic! ✨
• You can also try floating lanterns on the river. 🕯️ Make a silent wish and let them float away. It's so beautiful you'll want to freeze time.
• In the evening, grab some easy-to-eat food like Cao Lầu (Hoi An's chewy noodles). It's a unique but delicious taste.

🛍️ Day 4: Souvenir Shopping – Return Home
