Exploring Chan May, Vietnam
Simplest approach
Choose one destination: Hue for the imperial citadel, or the Da Nang/Hoi An direction for an old-town visit. Keep the stops within that chosen route and return with the arranged driver. Independent travel requires a reliable vehicle for both directions.
Practical notes
Accessibility
Confirm the pickup vehicle and port exit access. Heritage visits can involve steps and uneven surfaces; agree a route suited to your group.
