[!NOTE] Pricing Note for International Tourists The prices listed are inclusive of a 20% tax and service fee applied to foreign tourists. Estimated USD rates are based on current exchange rates and may slightly vary.

A 3-day 2-night tour of Quang Binh Phong Nha – Quang Tri DMZ combines two of Central Vietnam’s most historically profound and naturally magnificent regions. On one end lies Quang Tri with historic 17th Parallel landmarks; on the other, Quang Binh with UNESCO World Natural Heritage caves at Phong Nha Ke Bang.

This guide provides an hour-by-hour itinerary, all-inclusive private transport rates, and practical travel tips.

Why Visit Quang Binh – Quang Tri by Private Car?

The 300km road northward from Da Nang passes numerous DMZ historic sites along Highway 1A. Public buses make it difficult to stop at Truong Son Cemetery or Vinh Moc Tunnels, and require extra local taxis to cave entrances. Booking an intercity private car package with Faifo Express ensures your driver accompanies you throughout the entire 3D2N expedition.

Our drivers pace the long drive safely while recommending meaningful stops along the way. See our Da Nang to Phong Nha Quang Binh route guide for segment details.
