Can Tho to Ben Tre Private Car
Mui Ne Private Car's private car service takes you straight from Can Tho to Ben Tre. The car collects you at your hotel, a private address, Ninh Kieu Wharf, or anywhere else in the city, Can Tho Airport included. It drops you at the place you booked in Ben Tre, from a homestay inside a coconut garden to a hotel in the city centre.
Coaches on this route run only a few trips a day, the earliest at 8:00 in the morning, and you must reach the bus station before departure. A coach takes three and a half hours to reach Ben Tre bus station, then you find your own way onward to your stay. The private car leaves at the hour you choose and drives straight to your door.
Our private car service offers fixed prices starting at $55 per vehicle, depending on the vehicle type you choose. No deposit is required – simply pay after your trip. We operate daily with our own vehicles and experienced local drivers.

Route and Travel Time
The Can Tho to Ben Tre private car trip covers about 110 to 120 km and takes about 2 to 2.5 hours. Two road routes serve this trip. One runs through Vinh Long and over Ham Luong Bridge. The other runs through My Tho and over Rach Mieu Bridge.
Your driver chooses the best route on the day, based on traffic and road conditions. Rach Mieu 2 Bridge opened in August 2025. The long queues on the old Rach Mieu Bridge have eased since then.
Pickup at Your Hotel or Ninh Kieu Wharf in Can Tho
Most pickups happen at a hotel in central Can Tho or at Ninh Kieu Wharf after a floating market tour. Book the car with your pickup address and the time you want to leave. The driver comes to your address at that time. The driver helps you load your luggage, and the car leaves when you are ready.
The price includes 30 minutes of free waiting at pickup. If your plans move a little, message us on WhatsApp and the driver waits. If you cannot see the driver outside, call +84 976 694 384. The driver will come to where you are standing.
Pickup at Can Tho Airport
Book the car for your landing time and send us your flight number. We track your flight. Your driver waits at the arrivals exit holding a board with your name on it. You walk out, meet your driver, and the car leaves for Ben Tre.
If your flight is delayed or lands early, your driver still waits for the actual landing time. If you cannot find your driver at the exit, call +84 976 694 384. The driver will come to where you are standing.
What the Journey Is Like
Leaving right after the floating market suits this Can Tho to Ben Tre private car trip best. You reach Ben Tre before lunch, check in, and eat lunch inside a coconut garden.
Out of Can Tho, the car runs on flat, straight delta roads. Canals and rice fields line both sides of the road.
Further on, the car crosses a large river bridge. Past the bridge, coconut country begins. The roads narrow, and coconut palms shade both sides.
In Ben Tre, the driver takes you to the door of your accommodation. The driver helps you unload your luggage. You check the car together, so nothing stays behind.
Suggested Itinerary
You reach Ben Tre before lunch, check in, and eat at your homestay. Lunch here often means clay-pot fish and sour soup cooked garden style.
In the afternoon, take a small boat along the canals under the coconut palms. The boat stops at a family coconut candy workshop in the village. You watch the candy cooked and wrapped by hand, then taste it warm.

If time allows, ride the boat to Con Phung islet. The islet sits mid-river, and the boat crossing takes a few minutes each way.

The next morning, visit Vien Minh Pagoda in Ben Tre city. Then walk the Ben Tre riverside market before you leave. Both sit near the centre, so the morning stays easy.

Why Choose Us for This Trip
Our cars are modern, clean, and checked before every long trip. Our drivers are local and drive the Mekong Delta routes every day.
They know which station area clogs at which hour and which road is running slowly. We support you 24/7 on WhatsApp, from the moment you book until you are back in Can Tho. The price we confirm before the trip is the final price, with nothing added on the road.
What the Price Covers
The price covers your private car, your driver, fuel, and all road tolls for the Can Tho to Ben Tre private car trip, one way. It covers pickup at your address in Can Tho and drop-off at the door of your accommodation in Ben Tre. It includes 30 minutes of free waiting at pickup. Cancellation is free before departure.
The price does not cover entry tickets or canal boat hire in Ben Tre.
It does not cover your meals or your room in Ben Tre. Sightseeing stops along the way need to be agreed when you book. That way the driver can plan the timing well.
Important Notes
On public holidays and at Tet, traffic builds on both the Ham Luong and Rach Mieu bridge routes. Book your car and your room one to two weeks ahead at those times.
The rainy season runs from May to October. The canals fill in the rains, so boat trips look their best. Garden roads in Ben Tre turn slippery, though, so your driver goes slower.
Since July 2025, Ben Tre has belonged to Vinh Long Province after the province mergers. Local people still call the area Ben Tre in daily life.
Most stays in Ben Tre are garden homestays, with few large hotels. Some homestays sit on river islets, where the last stretch runs by boat. Send us the address when you book, and we confirm exactly where the car drops you before the trip.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can the car pick us up straight after the Cai Rang floating market tour?
Yes. Market boats usually dock between 8:00 and 9:00 in the morning. Set the pickup at your hotel or at Ninh Kieu Wharf when you book. The driver waits there, and the car leaves for Ben Tre as soon as you board.
Our homestay sits on an islet. Can the car reach its door?
Most Ben Tre stays sit on roads the car reaches to the door. Islet stays, such as Con Phung, end with a short boat ride from a small wharf. Send us the address when you book, and we confirm exactly where the car drops you before the trip.
We want lunch in My Tho on the way. Does that change the price?
No, when you agree the stop at booking. The driver then takes the My Tho route on the day if that road runs well. The lunch stop time is also agreed in advance, so the trip stays on schedule.
We land at Can Tho Airport at noon. Can we go straight to Ben Tre?
Yes. Book the car with your flight number. The driver collects you at the arrivals exit, and the car drives straight to Ben Tre. You arrive in the middle of the afternoon.
Can the car take us back to Can Tho the same evening?
Yes. Book the return leg together with the trip out. The return is priced as its own one-way trip at the same rates. The pickup time in Ben Tre is yours to choose.
