GoVietStay • Central Vietnam Cruise Support
Private shore days built around one question: what can you realistically see and still return to your ship safely?
Cruise port
Best for Hue, Lang Co and Hai Van Pass
Driving times are planning estimates and can change with traffic, weather, road works and port exit procedures.
Cruise port
Best for Da Nang, Marble Mountains and Hoi An
Driving times are planning estimates and can change with traffic, weather, road works and port exit procedures.
Cruise schedule watch
These passenger-cruise calls are taken from the published Chan May Port vessel plan. Times are port ETA/ETD, not your personal all-aboard deadline. Operational changes are possible.

Source checked 12 Sep 2026: Chan May Port official “Kế hoạch tàu vào cảng”. Always reconfirm with your cruise line before leaving the ship.
Official Chan May Port vessel plan ↗These published Da Nang-region calls help us prepare drivers and guides early. They do not prove the final berth is Tien Sa. Some cruise listings use “Da Nang” for the wider destination while the actual berth may be Chan May, Tien Sa or another permitted berth.

Planning reference cross-checked against public cruise calendars. Final berth, pickup permission and meeting point are reconfirmed for the specific ship call.
These examples assume the usable time ashore starts after guests clear the ship and port procedures. We shorten or expand the route based on your exact call.
About 5 hours ashore
Port → Lang Co viewpoint / lagoon → Hai Van Pass photo stop → return to Chan May Port.
Best when the ship has a short call. We do not recommend forcing Hue into a very short window.
About 7 hours ashore
Port → Hue → Imperial City or selected royal tomb → Thien Mu Pagoda → local lunch if time allows → port.
A strong first-time option. The exact number of stops depends on ship arrival, port exit time and all-aboard time.
About 9 hours ashore
Port → Hue → Imperial City → Thien Mu Pagoda → selected royal tomb → local lunch → return to ship.
This gives a more complete Hue experience while preserving a return buffer.
About 5 hours ashore
Port → Son Tra / Linh Ung Pagoda → My Khe viewpoint → Marble Mountains if time allows → port.
A compact route with minimal road risk and more sightseeing time.
About 7 hours ashore
Port → Marble Mountains → Hoi An Ancient Town → local lunch or coffee → return to Tien Sa Port.
One of the best-balanced cruise routes from Tien Sa.
About 9 hours ashore
Choose Hoi An + Cam Thanh Coconut Forest, or Ba Na Hills as the main destination. We normally avoid combining too many distant attractions in one port day.
Private routing is adjusted to mobility, queue conditions and all-aboard time.
We would rather remove one attraction than create an unsafe return. Your itinerary is planned backward from all aboard, with a practical buffer for road and port conditions.
Real local coordination
GoVietStay is a Vietnam travel support company coordinating private tours, transfers and local assistance in Central Vietnam. Our Da Nang coordination office is Room 106, Vicoland Building, 01 Le Thanh Nghi, Hoa Cuong Ward, Da Nang, Vietnam.
The Da Nang office is our coordination office, not a cruise terminal. The exact port meeting point is confirmed separately for your ship call.
When port access is authorized, we coordinate the required vehicle and passenger information for the permitted pickup area. The exact meeting point can vary by ship, berth and port security rules, so we confirm it before arrival rather than promising a fixed point in advance.
We plan backward from the ship's all-aboard time, not only from the published departure time. A practical safety buffer is normally built in and may be increased for traffic, weather, large-ship days or port procedures.
Yes. Send the ship name, date, docking time, all-aboard time, number of guests, mobility needs and preferred guide language. We will suggest only the stops that are realistic for that call.
Yes, Russian-speaking guidance can be requested in advance, subject to availability. English-speaking guides and private driver-only options can also be arranged.

No need to choose a tour first. Send the port call details and we will build the safest realistic route for your time ashore.
