There\u2019s also an incredible amount of history and culture on offer.

While taxis are not impossible to find, they may take a while to get to you. This is particularly the case when you are returning from the golf course to your hotel. Going\u00a0 with a ground operator specializing in golf helps, so that all the nuances typical to golf are taken care of.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To get around in Danang, you can use Grab ( the Southeast Asia equivalent of Uber) or one of the organized taxi services. If you are staying in Hoi An, getting around is easy as it is quite compact. You should be able to make your way on foot or bicycle to most places. In any case motorised vehicles are not allowed in the ancient town.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><b>8.

While Central Vietnam has its own cuisines and flavours to offer, the seafood here is absolutely cracking. That\u2019s not to say that it is not like the rest of Vietnam in respect of street stalls and unassuming eating establishments that serve the most delicious food.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And of course, inexpensive as well. Again, that\u2019s not to say there are no fine dining options in Danang and Hoi An.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Of the two, Danang has a more local taste bud orientation than Hoi An. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.2foodtrippers.com\/hoi-an-food-favorites\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hoi An which finds more appeal to the Western<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> as opposed to the Asian traveler offers a bigger variety. So choose what suits your palette.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The beer is cheap as anywhere else in Vietnam. In Hoi An, you can add on the experience of local draught beer, perched on tiny stools on the kerbside at \u201cBia Hois\u201d. For other watering holes &#8211; in Danang, check out Bamboo 2 on the waterfront very popular with golfers in Danang. There are a bunch of other bars as well in its vicinity, so you can crawl from one to another. Other bars include Sky 36 on the Novotel rooftop and Golden Pine which goes on into the wee hours.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><b>9.

There are other bars in its vicinity as well, which you can head to. Phuong Dong and New Phuong Dong are the best nightclubs in town that go into the wee hours with electronic dance music. They are usually busy with locals, Koreans and Japanese and feature hostesses and exotic Eastern European dancers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And, if you are so inclined, there are plenty of karaoke joints spread across, where your money is easily parted.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is a continuation to the article, 10 Tips for Planning a Danang Golf Tour (Part 1),\u00a0 which included the following &#8211; About Danang &amp; Getting There\u00a0 When to Go on a Danang Golf Tour Where to Stay on a Hoi An Golf Tour Which of the Danang Golf Courses should you play ?
