A Ho Chi Minh City to Ba Den Mountain car rental is one of the most popular day trips in the south, and for Car Rental Vietnam it is the group route we run most on full-moon days, the first day of the lunar month and early-year festivals. Since 1 July 2025, Tay Ninh and Long An have merged into the new Tay Ninh province, and Ba Den Mountain is now in Binh Minh ward. Tay Ninh welcomed about 7.45 million visitors in the first 9 months of 2026, up 18.8% year on year. The new cable car schedule and ticket prices below will help you plan.
According to Sun World Ba Den Mountain's official notice, from 28 September 2026 the schedule is:
Hours may change with the weather; check sunworld.vn before you go.
| Ticket (28/9 – 31/12/2026) | Adult | Child |
|---|---|---|
| Site entrance | 10,000 VND | 5,000 VND |
| Van Son summit cable car | 450,000 VND | 350,000 VND |
| Chua Hang cable car (return) | 250,000 VND | 150,000 VND |
| Combo Van Son + Chua Hang | 650,000 VND | 500,000 VND |
| Combo Van Son + Chua Hang after 5 pm | 400,000 VND | 300,000 VND |
Sun World says child tickets apply to children from 1 m to under 1.4 m tall; under 1 m is free. Visitors aged 80 or over and monks and nuns with valid papers are also free. The summit is 986 m high, with the Tay Bo Da Son Buddha statue.
After the merger, Tay Ninh province also includes Dong Thap Muoi wetlands such as Tan Lap floating village and Lang Sen wetland reserve. River tourism routes around Tan An, Khanh Hau and Thu Thua are also being surveyed. With 2 days, you can combine Ba Den Mountain with the melaleuca forests of former Long An.
The Cao Dai Holy See is right on the way to the mountain. Check the ceremony times beforehand and dress respectfully. Dau Tieng Lake suits travellers who like wide, quiet landscapes.
Tay Ninh is famous for Trang Bang noodle soup (banh canh) and dew-dried rice paper. There are many Trang Bang banh canh shops along National Road 22 from Ho Chi Minh City, making it the most sensible breakfast stop for a group.
| Place | Main dish | Address / area | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Banh canh Trang Bang Nam Dung | Banh canh, dew-dried rice paper | 90 Nguyen Van Rop, Trang Bang area | Per Foody and business registration data |
| Banh canh Trang Bang Hoang Minh | Banh canh, rice paper rolls | On National Road 22, Trang Bang area | Spacious, handy for large groups |
We have no reliable price source, so we do not list prices. Dew-dried rice paper and shrimp salt make good souvenirs.
Usual route: from central Ho Chi Minh City head towards Cu Chi, follow National Road 22 through Trang Bang, then provincial roads to the Holy See and Ba Den Mountain, about 100 km.
| Leg | Typical time | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Ho Chi Minh City – Ba Den Mountain | About 2 h 30 min – 3 h | Getting out of the north-west gateway takes the longest |
| Holy See – Ba Den Mountain | About 20 – 30 min | Provincial roads |
Yes. Leave early and you will have time for both cable cars and the Holy See, back in Ho Chi Minh City by evening.
A 29-seat coach fits well; groups over 30 should take a 45-seat coach. For full-moon and first-of-month days, book at least a week ahead.
According to Sun World's price list, the after-5 pm ticket is cheaper and you can watch sunset from the summit, but you will get back late, so a car with driver is less tiring.
