How to get to Hon Thom Cable Car

  • Method 1: Riding a motorbike

You can rent a motorbike for about 150,000 VND/day for a manual motorbike and 200,000 VND/day for an automatic motorbike. The distance from Phu Quoc city center to An Thoi station is about 20km, which takes about 20 minutes to ride. This method is suitable for those who want to enjoy the scenery of Phu Quoc while riding and also conveniently stop by other places such as Bai Sau, Ho Quoc Pagoda, fish sauce factories, etc.

  • Method 2: Taking a taxi or renting a tourist car

Taking a taxi or tourist car is more comfortable than riding a motorbike, but this method is quite expensive. The taxi fare is around 800,000 VND/round trip. The price of renting a tourist car ranges from 700,000 VND to 900,000 VND/day.

  • Method 3: Taking the bus

Bus number 11 runs to Hon Thom Cable Car on the Duong Dong – An Thoi route with a ticket price of about 40,000 VND/way/person. Usually, the bus operates every 30 minutes and the last trip ends at 5pm. This method is reasonable in cost, but from November 15, 2023, the bus service will be temporarily suspended for adjustment and there is no schedule to resume operation yet.

Those are the 4 detailed ways to get around if you want to experience Phu Quoc tourism on your own.
