Phong Nha is a relatively new destination and because of this there isn’t as much transport infrastructure as in other areas of Vietnam. Expect to pay a bit more to get around that you do in the touristy places.
Planes, trains and many buses drop you off at DONG HOI. This is our nearest major urban area, 45km away. We can arrange a private car to pick you up from/take you to Dong Hoi, and the cost of this is shared by the number of people arriving/leaving. The transfer takes about 45 minutes.
The price of transfer, between Dong Hoi and Phong Nha, per person is:
|
Passengers |
1 |
2 |
3 |
4 or more |
|
Price per person (VND) |
500,000 |
250,000 |
170,000 |
125,000 |
We always try to get more people in the car if arriving at the same time to make it cheaper. We need to know how and when you arrive to arrange transport from Dong Hoi to Phong Nha. Please confirm with us once you have bought your tickets.
There is also a local bus that leaves from outside the Bus Station (1.3 km from the train station) The local bus goes approximately every hour to 90 minutes with the last bus at about 5.30pm. It is pretty cheap but takes about 90 minutes to get to Easy Tiger. At the time of writing the bus times are 05:15 06:15 07:15 09:00 10:00 10:45 13:15 14:45 16:00 and 17:00
