Frequently Asked Question
Is $237 really the total price?
Yes — $237 is the flat price for the whole 9-seat minibus from Phnom Penh to Ho Chi Minh City, one way. That's exactly what the nine individual seats add up to, so you don't pay a premium for having the vehicle to yourselves. No hidden fees.
Can you pick us up from our hotel in Phnom Penh?
Yes. On a charter we can collect you door-to-door from your Phnom Penh hotel or address instead of leaving from our office. The added cost depends on your pickup location, so message us on Telegram or Zalo and we'll quote it before you book.
What time do we leave, and can we choose?
Charters from Phnom Penh run at 6:00am and 2:00pm. Because the vehicle is yours, we can shift the departure a little around those times to suit you — message us with your preferred time and we'll confirm what's possible. The journey takes around 5–6 hours, arriving in Ho Chi Minh City early afternoon or evening depending on your departure.
Do you help at the border?
Yes. A guide travels with you and handles the paperwork on both sides of the Bavet–Moc Bai crossing — typically 20–30 minutes. You stay in the same minibus the whole way; there's no changing vehicles after the border.
How many people can the charter carry?
Up to nine passengers in the Hyundai Solati minibus, with space for luggage — ideal for families, small groups, or business travelers heading from Phnom Penh to Saigon who'd rather keep to themselves.
Is there a bus from Phnom Penh to Ho Chi Minh, or only charter?
Both. This page is for private charter — the whole minibus for your group. If you'd rather book individual seats on our shared minibus, see our Phnom Penh to Ho Chi Minh seats page. Either way it's the same comfortable 9-seat vehicle, not a large coach.
