Traveling from Hue to Hoi An by classic Jeep is an unforgettable adventure that cars or motorbikes simply can’t match!
This Hai Van Pass jeep tour offers a unique and thrilling way to explore Vietnam’s natural and cultural wonders. You will visit remarkable destinations such as the ornate Ghost City, Tu Hien Bridge, Lap An Lagoon, and the refreshing Mo Waterfall. There’s also the chance to marvel at the stunning beauty of Lang Co Bay and discover the ancient Champa relic of Bang An Tower, all before arriving in the lantern-lit Hoi An.
Once you book a tour with Vietnam Backpacker Hostels and jump into the classic jeep Hai Van Pass, we will set off on a road trip through Vietnam’s most stunning landscapes:
The day begins as your Jeep pulls up at your accommodation in Hue. The early morning air is crisp, and as you settle into your seat, the bustling streets of Hue fade into the distance, replaced by the peaceful beauty of Vietnam’s countryside.
Your first stop is the Ghost City, a sprawling “city” of ornate mausoleums known locally as the “City of Tombs.”
Indeed, the tombs here are elaborate and sometimes even grander than the homes of the living. When walking among such intricate structures, you will feel the weight of the thousands of years of Vietnamese custom, a way of honoring their ancestors with enduring tributes.
The Hai Van Pass jeep tour from Hue continues as the Jeep rolls onto Tu Hien Bridge, a picturesque spot where nature’s quiet beauty takes all the spotlight. The river flows gently beneath the bridge, reflecting the surrounding greenery in its still waters while the Fishermen drift by in their wooden boats. Why not take this peaceful moment to stretch your legs or capture the scenery with your camera?
As we drive past the Lap An Lagoon, you will be struck by its lovely, almost poetic beauty. The lagoon’s still waters mirror the sky and the encircling mountains perfectly, which creates such a surreal landscape that you cannot help but feel like stepping into a painting.
Soon, you arrive at Mo Waterfall, where the gentle roar of cascading water invites you closer. The crystal-clear spring beckons you for a refreshing dip, a chance to cool off and relax in nature’s embrace. Accompanied by the lush surroundings and soothing ambiance, you will have the best, most idyllic retreat of your lifetime.
Next, the Hai Van Pass jeep tour from Hue brings you to the stunning Lang Co Bay, one of the most beautiful bays in the world, surrounded by the majestic Truong Son mountains and the vast ocean. You can take time to wander along its pristine beaches, feel the soft sand beneath your feet, and observe the daily life of local fishermen.
At a nearby seafood restaurant, we will stop a little to savor a delicious lunch of fresh, locally caught seafood. The grilled fish and succulent prawns truly reflect the flavors of the region, served with views of the sparkling bay.
After lunch, the Jeep begins its ascent of the Hai Van Pass (also known as the “Pass of the Ocean Clouds”), a road as legendary as it is beautiful. This winding mountain route offers jaw-dropping views at every turn. On one side, the jungle-clad mountains rise steeply, while on the other, the coastline stretches endlessly into the horizon.
At the summit of Hai Van Pass, you stop at Turtle Stone Coffee, a cozy café nestled high above the world. Here, you will sip on freshly brewed Vietnamese coffee while taking in the panoramic views of the coastline below. The cool mountain air and stunning vistas make this a perfect spot to pause and reflect on the journey so far.
The landscape descends from the Hai Van pass and shifts to rich green rice fields that sway gently in the afternoon breeze.
The Jeep brings you to Bang An Tower, a 1,000-year-old relic of the Champa Kingdom. This ancient Hindu temple is built in red brick, with intricate carvings that tell the story of the architectural and spiritual devotion of the Champa people. There’s no better place to immerse yourself in the rich history and culture of the region.
As the sun dips lower in the sky, the Jeep rolls into the lantern-lit streets of Hoi An town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. You’re dropped off at your accommodation, ready to explore this beautiful town at your leisure with the day’s memories still fresh.

To make the most of your adventure and ensure a smooth, enjoyable experience, here’s a list of what you should bring:
This tour involves both walking and sitting for extended periods, so you should opt for breathable, lightweight clothing that keeps you cool. We suggest a good pair of sturdy, closed-toe shoes or comfortable sandals to navigate the sandy beaches and rocky paths at Mo Waterfall.
Don’t miss out on the chance to cool off at the pristine Mo Waterfall! Bring a swimsuit to enjoy a refreshing dip in the crystal-clear spring, plus a quick-dry towel for drying off comfortably before you continue your journey.
Iconic spots like Hai Van Pass, Lap An Lagoon, and the Ghost City are a photographer’s dream. Both DSLR cameras and smartphones work fine, but make sure you have enough memory and battery to capture the stunning scenery and unforgettable moments along the way.
Of course, don’t forget to carry a small bag with items you might need during the tour, such as medications, a reusable water bottle to stay hydrated, and snacks to keep your energy up during the ride. A portable power bank for your phone or camera can also be handy.
As mentioned, though major expenses like entrance fees and lunch are included, it’s always wise to have some local currency on hand. After all, you might want to buy souvenirs, grab an extra drink, or tip your guide and driver for their dedication.
1. The weather in Central Vietnam can be unpredictable, especially in the mountains, so check the forecast ahead of time and consider bringing a lightweight raincoat or poncho. And since the Jeep is open-air, being prepared for a sudden drizzle will keep the ride enjoyable.
2. Your English-speaking guide will handle most interactions. Still, learning a few basic Vietnamese phrases like “Xin chào” (hello) or “Cảm ơn” (thank you) will make your experience even more enjoyable when interacting with locals.
3. When visiting sites like Bang An Tower, it’s a good idea to dress modestly as a sign of respect. This is especially appreciated at cultural and religious landmarks.
