Hai Van Pass private tour from Hoi An
The famous Top Gear pass — but in your own car, with a driver who knows where to pull over for the photo nobody else gets.
Why a private tour, not a group one
Most Hai Van Pass tours sold out of Hoi An are 16-seat minibuses with 12 strangers, a guide on a microphone, and a forty-minute lunch you didn't pick. A private tour with your own driver costs more, but it's a different day: you stop when you want, eat where the driver eats, and the car is yours from 8am to 5pm. We've driven this pass eight hundred times. We know which curve has the bay view nobody photographs and which snack stand actually makes its own bánh mì.
