Is Da Nang cheaper than Bali or Phuket?

Cash or card in Da Nang?
Cash (Vietnamese dong or USD) is preferred everywhere. Cards work in hotels and larger restaurants. Use Grab (cashless ride-hailing) for transit. Withdraw dong from ATMs — USD is accepted but you'll get better rates in dong.

Flights and accommodation dominate. Ba Na Hills theme park ($35 entry + $15 transport) is the priciest single activity. Hoi An tailoring can add up if you order custom clothes.
