Full-Day Sightseeing Car Rental
Explore — Experience — Unwind
Hoi An and its surrounding areas have such a high concentration of attractions that many tourists often miss hidden gems simply because they lack flexible transportation. From the sacred site of My Son, the majestic Hai Van Pass, An Bang Beach to Tra Que vegetable village – each destination requires a carefully planned journey to make the most of your precious travel time.
Faifo Express’s day tour car rental service is designed to solve exactly that problem: you choose the destinations, we handle the entire route – with local knowledgeable drivers, well-maintained vehicles, and flexible itineraries tailored to each group’s actual needs.
[!NOTE] The prices below are for reference only and may change during peak seasons, depending on the number of stops or special requests. Official quotes will be confirmed via message after you provide your specific itinerary.

Included: Driver fee, fuel, main route tolls, complimentary drinks. Not Included: Entrance fees, parking fees at destinations, meals.

When your itinerary needs flexible breaks without being bound by group tour schedules. A private car allows you to adjust the schedule according to your family’s pace – spend more time at places your children enjoy, skip those that don’t suit everyone.
Instead of relying on fixed group tour schedules, you can completely design your own itinerary and only need a reliable vehicle with a trustworthy driver to execute it.
When you need to move between meetings in Da Nang and still want to visit Hoi An’s ancient town in the afternoon – a day tour car is a much more professional choice than ride-sharing apps.
Faifo Express drivers can communicate basic English and understand local attractions well, helping you avoid getting lost both literally and figuratively.
Lantern festivals, late-night art performances in Hoi An – car rental service ensures you have safe transportation home no matter what time you finish.
Send your information to Faifo Express via hotline, Zalo, or the booking form on our website. Provide: travel date, number of guests, pickup location, places you want to visit, and expected end time.
Within 30 minutes (during business hours), our team will send you a detailed quote with an optimized route suggestion. Once both parties agree, you pay a deposit to secure the vehicle and confirm your trip.
The driver will arrive at the pickup location at least 10 minutes before the scheduled time. You’ll receive driver information (name, phone number, license plate) before departure to stay in touch.
Throughout the journey, you can adjust the itinerary if needed. When you arrive at the drop-off point, pay the remaining balance and provide feedback on the service quality so Faifo Express can continue improving.
All vehicles in our fleet are maintained regularly according to manufacturer schedules. Before each trip, drivers perform basic checks (tires, lights, air conditioning, fuel). If a vehicle encounters technical issues during the journey, Faifo Express will arrange a replacement vehicle as soon as possible.
All drivers have appropriate licenses for their vehicle type, experience driving Central Vietnam routes, and are trained in service etiquette. Drivers are not permitted to smoke on the vehicle or suggest shopping stops outside the itinerary that you haven’t requested.
| Cancellation Time | Policy |
|---|---|
| Before 48 hours | Full deposit refund |
| Before 24 hours | 50% deposit refund |
| Within 24 hours | No refund (except force majeure with confirmation) |
| Cancelled by Faifo Express | 100% refund and assistance finding alternative |
If the driver is more than 15 minutes late without valid reason, you have the right to report directly for handling and appropriate fee adjustment.

Each guest receives at least 1 bottle of 500ml mineral water for the journey. For longer day trips or hot weather, additional water can be provided upon request.
MPV 7-seat and Limousine 9-seat vehicles are equipped with mobile WiFi hotspots, suitable for guests who need to work or share photos while traveling.
Most Faifo Express drivers are locals or have long-term connections to the Hoi An – Da Nang area. They can recommend good restaurants, best times to visit attractions with fewer crowds, and “secret” spots that guidebooks don’t mention.
Child safety seats (baby seat / booster seat) can be prepared upon request when booking. Please inform us of your child’s age and weight so we can provide the appropriate seat.
The driver waits free of charge while you visit attractions on your agreed itinerary – no hourly waiting fees like regular taxis.
[!NOTE] Central Vietnam rainy season (September – December): The Hoi An, Da Nang areas and coastal routes may be affected by heavy rain and local flooding. Faifo Express will proactively contact customers if weather forecasts affect your route and suggest appropriate adjustments.
[!TIP] Hai Van Pass route: It’s best to depart before 8 AM to avoid fog and ensure good visibility for photos. Late afternoons often have strong winds, especially in winter.
[!TIP] Hoi An Ancient Town: Cars are not allowed in the old town core during certain hours. The driver will take you to the nearest parking area and wait there – this is a local regulation, not a service inconvenience.
[!NOTE] Hoi An – My Son route: The road from km 15 to km 22 has some narrow and steep sections. With larger groups, 16-seat vehicles can still travel this route but journey time may be 10–15 minutes longer than expected.
