    Hai Van Pass

    Had an amazing day doing the Hai Van Pass from Hoi An to Hue. Quinn & Hung both made us feel very comfortable and Quinn was extremely knowledgeable. The food was good (I am vegetarian and was catered for). We saw some beautiful views and had a really fun day. This has been a Vietnam highlight for me!

    Totally recommended

    We had to go to Hue from Hoi An and as bus is boring we asked if we can do it by moto. They sent the big backpacks by bus in Hue. We did some backroads in the delta close to Hoi An, and then headed for the Hai Van pass. Awesome views with the jungle and the ocean! At some point we went off road in the jungle. Rocky and muddy surface, much fun! We continued to a lagoon were we had delicious seafood. Totally enjoyed this ride!

    UNFORGETTABLE! MUST GO!

    No words to describe the level of Service provided! Simply one of the 3 best experiences of my life. Actually, I have to say the Hai Van Pass was not the best part, but the places and stories shared along the way. Thank you very much to guide Ai for being so kind, helpful and for sharing your experiences, as well as serving carefully at the wheel. No words can describe the level of custom service provided! Simply a top 3 experience of my life. Actually, I must say that the Hai Van Pass was not the best part, but the places and stories shared along the path. Thanks to the guide a Ai for being only kind, helpful and for sharing his experiences and also for being only carefully while riding the motorbike.

    Top Gear: Hoian - Hai van pass loop: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Hoi An.

    How much does Top Gear: Hoian - Hai van pass loop cost?

    +

    Prices start at $74 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Hoi An usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Top Gear: Hoian - Hai van pass loop take?

    +

    Plan for about 24 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Hoi An is not rushed.

    Is Top Gear: Hoian - Hai van pass loop worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 68 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 8 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Hoi An, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Top Gear: Hoian - Hai van pass loop?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Top Gear: Hoian - Hai van pass loop suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 24-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Top Gear: Hoian - Hai van pass loop?

    +

    Around 3 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Hoi An can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Hoi An and add a light layer if any part of the 24-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Top Gear: Hoian - Hai van pass loop start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Hoi An within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Hoi An?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Hoi An experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Hoi An Ancient Town Walking Tour with a Local, Cooking Class Hoi An:Local Market, Basket Boat, Fishing & Cooking, Hoi An Cooking Class(Local Market, Basket Boat,Fishing &Cooking). The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Hoi An?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Hoi An?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Top Gear: Hoian - Hai van pass loop?

    +

    Included: Lunch. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Top Gear: Hoian - Hai van pass loop include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered, or you can meet at the start point instead from 292 listed pickup locations in and around Hoi An. Be ready about 10 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is Top Gear: Hoian - Hai van pass loop offered in?

    +

    It is offered in English and French. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Top Gear: Hoian - Hai van pass loop?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    Is Top Gear: Hoian - Hai van pass loop wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Not recommended for pregnant travelers. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

    What happens to Top Gear: Hoian - Hai van pass loop if the weather is bad?

    +

    This experience depends on good weather. If it is canceled because of poor weather, you are offered a different date or a full refund.
