Hoi An eSIM

Which eSIM should I buy for Hoi An?

Choose the AloOui Vietnam eSIM. It starts at $5.49 for 1GB over 7 days and runs on Viettel and VinaPhone (4G/5G), MobiFone and Vietnamobile (4G). Install it before you fly and you're online the moment you land at Da Nang International Airport (DAD), about 45 minutes away. The same eSIM works across Vietnam, so Da Nang, Hue and the Hai Van Pass are included.

Getting to Hoi An

Hoi An has no airport of its own. Most visitors fly into Da Nang International Airport (DAD) and take a Grab car, taxi or hotel transfer south along the coast, which takes around 45 minutes.

Data tip: turn on AloOui as you land in Da Nang and book your Grab before you leave arrivals, so you can see the fare up front.

The Ancient Town

Hoi An's Ancient Town is a UNESCO World Heritage site of old merchant houses, assembly halls and the Japanese Covered Bridge. An entrance ticket covers a set number of historic sites. In the evening the streets are closed to traffic and lit by hundreds of silk lanterns, and boats on the Thu Bon River carry floating candles.

Data tip: the narrow lanes all look alike after dark, so drop a pin at your hotel before you head out.

Where you'll use your data in Hoi An

• Tailor shops: custom clothes made in a day or two, with fittings you'll want to schedule on your phone
• An Bang and Cua Dai beaches: a short bike or Grab ride from town
• Tra Que village: an organic vegetable village with cooking classes
• Cam Thanh coconut forest: spinning basket-boat rides through the water palms

My Son and the countryside

The ruins of My Son Sanctuary, a group of Cham temples and another UNESCO site, are about an hour inland. Many visitors also cycle through the rice paddies around town.

Data tip: download offline maps before cycling into the countryside, and keep your tour pickup details on your phone.

Rain and flood season

The heaviest rain usually falls from around September to December, and the riverside streets can flood. Check the forecast before you book activities. Heading north? See our Da Nang and Hue guides, or fly on to Hanoi.
