Route and Travel Time from Can Tho to Vung Tau
Getting to Vung Tau from Can Tho means covering about 250 to 260 km, and the trip takes about 5 to 5.5 hours. The car leaves the delta heading east, skirts the southern edge of Ho Chi Minh City, and drops down to the coast.
Your driver chooses the best route on the day, based on traffic and road conditions. The slowest stretch is the Saigon outskirts at peak hour and on weekend afternoons when beach traffic builds, and your pickup time should allow for it.

What the Journey Is Like
One straight run is the big difference on this route. You board in Can Tho, stop for breaks as agreed at booking, and step out in Vung Tau. No intermediate bus station, no hauling luggage between vehicles, and no hours lost waiting for a connection in Saigon.
The driver advises your expected arrival time once the car clears the city outskirts, so you can update your hotel or whoever meets you at the Vung Tau end.
Suggested Itinerary: Arriving in Vung Tau, What Next
Back Beach. The long hotel and resort strip along Thuy Van street is where most guests stay. The car drops you at the lobby, and after check-in the beach is right there.

Front Beach. The bay on the city's west side suits a sunset hour and a seafood dinner along Quang Trung street. Guests staying in the centre are dropped at their hotel door as usual.

Christ the King and the White Palace. The city's two best-known sights stand on the same side of Small Mountain. Arriving by midday leaves time for a short round in the first afternoon before dark.

Can Tho to Vung Tau Private Car FAQs
How do I get from Can Tho to Vung Tau?
You have two main ways. A private car takes about 5 to 5.5 hours over about 250 to 260 km, collects you in Can Tho and drops you at your address in Vung Tau, at prices by vehicle from $112 for the Sedan. Intercity coaches usually run this trip in legs: you ride from Can Tho to Mien Tay Bus Station in Saigon, change vehicles, and continue down to Vung Tau, about 7 to 9 hours in total before connection waits. With only a weekend at the beach, the private car is the way that protects your time there.
How far is Vung Tau from Can Tho?
Vung Tau is about 250 to 260 km from Can Tho by road. A private car covers the distance in about 5 to 5.5 hours and drops you at your hotel door at the Vung Tau end.
If we leave early in the morning, can we be at the beach by lunch?
Yes. Leaving around 6:00 AM puts you in Vung Tau at about 11:00 to 11:30, in time for a seafood lunch and check-in. Weekend traffic runs heavier, and the driver will advise a slightly earlier start when you book.
Can you drop us at a hotel on Back Beach, or only in the centre?
The car drops you at any address in Vung Tau, including hotels and resorts along Thuy Van street on Back Beach, the Front Beach area and private homes. Just name your hotel when you book.
Can we stop in Long Hai or Ba Ria on the way?
Yes, when the stop is agreed at booking. Ba Ria lies on the road into Vung Tau, and Long Hai is a short branch off it. Stop time is built into the day plan from the start.
Can we ride in the morning and return to Can Tho the same evening?
Yes. Book both legs in one message and the driver waits in Vung Tau or collects you again at the time agreed. The combined price for the two legs is confirmed when you book.
Is Vung Tau part of Ho Chi Minh City now?
Yes. Since July 2025, the former Ba Ria Vung Tau province sits inside Ho Chi Minh City, and the old Vung Tau city is now a group of wards. A Back Beach hotel address may read Vung Tau Ward, Ho Chi Minh City, and addresses towards the 3 Thang 2 end may read Tam Thang Ward. It is the same city, the same beaches and the same drop-off: send us the hotel name from your booking and the driver takes you to its door.
