Route and Travel Time from Can Tho to Tran De Port

The Can Tho to Tran De Port private car trip covers about 85 to 95 km and takes about 2 hours. The road follows the Hau River, passes Soc Trang city, and ends at Tran De Port by the river mouth.

Your driver chooses the best route on the day, based on traffic and road conditions. For the 8:00 AM ferry, the car collects you in Can Tho at about 5:00 AM and reaches the port at about 7:00 AM. You get a full hour to check in and board.

Early in the morning the roads are empty, and the car runs smoothly and on time. Rest stops need to be agreed when you book, so the driver can plan the timing against your ferry.

Pickup at Your Hotel or Address in Can Tho

Most pickups happen at a hotel in central Can Tho early in the morning, before the ferry. Book the car with your pickup address and the departure time on your ferry ticket. The driver comes to your address at the agreed 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 you come down a little late, 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

If your flight landed the night before and you stay near the airport, the car collects you at the airport early the next morning. Book the car for the time you want to leave and send us your ferry time. 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 Tran De Port.

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

The car leaves Can Tho while it is still dark. The road runs along the Hau River, through towns that are still asleep.

The sky lightens as the car reaches Soc Trang city. From there the road runs straight to the river mouth, past salt fields and low mangrove lines.

At Tran De Port, the car stops right at the gate of your operator’s terminal. The driver helps you unload your luggage. You check the car together, so nothing stays behind, then you head to the check-in counter.

Suggested Itinerary: From Tran De Port to Con Dao

You reach the port at about 7:00 AM, check in, and board the 8:00 AM sailing. The crossing to Con Dao takes about 2 hours 15 minutes to 2 hours 30 minutes.

The ferry docks at Ben Dam Port late in the morning. From Ben Dam, take your hotel shuttle or a taxi into Con Son town, check in, and eat a seafood lunch.

On your first afternoon on the island, walk through Con Dao Market in the town, then swim at the beach near town. The water on Con Dao is clear and the beaches are quiet.

At the end of the day, ride the coast road out to Mui Ca Map, Shark Cape, for the sunset. It is the best sea view on the south of the island, and where islanders come for the evening breeze.

Are ferry tickets to Con Dao included in the car price?
No. The car price covers the road trip from Can Tho to Tran De Port only. Ferry tickets are booked directly with Superdong or Phu Quoc Express, with adult fares from about 363,000 VND one way.

Can the car collect us at the port when the ferry returns from Con Dao?
