How does Huongdanviendulich.vn work with motorbikes?
Huongdanviendulich.vn does not rent out vehicles directly. The platform connects two sides:
- Renters: post a vehicle rental request (select “Self-drive motorbike,” pickup date, return date, and pickup location), then receive quotes from multiple shops; or visit the available vehicles page to view and filter the motorbikes and bicycles listed by providers.
- Providers: motorbike and bicycle rental shops register an account, list their vehicles, and send quotes for suitable requests to build a steady customer base.

Benefits of Finding Motorbikes on Huongdanviendulich.vn
- Receive multiple quotes and choose the best price: your request is viewed and quoted by multiple rental shops, allowing you to compare prices, vehicle models, and terms before choosing.
- Transparent rental conditions: the deposit, documents to be held, number of helmets, and vehicle delivery and pickup fees are clearly stated before confirmation.
- Filter for the right vehicle: the available vehicles page includes filters for motorbikes, bicycles, delivery service, no retention of original documents, deposits under VND 1 million, 2023 or newer vehicles, and 5-star rental shops.
- Verified providers: shops have profiles on the platform and receive reviews from previous renters.
- Free for customers: posting a request is free, and you are not required to choose any option if none of the quotes meets your needs.
- Avoid on-the-spot solicitation: confirm the price and terms before arriving, so you do not have to bargain at the bus station or in front of your hotel.
- Bicycles and other options are also available: in addition to self-drive motorbikes, you can also find bicycles, self-drive cars, cars with drivers, and shared rides when needed.
Things to Note When Searching for a Vehicle Online
For the best experience, you should be aware of the following limitations:
- Quotes may take some time: quotes come from rental shops, so they are not instant like booking a ride; you should post your request 1–2 days in advance, or as early as possible during peak seasons. If you need a vehicle urgently, check the available vehicles page.
- The number of shops varies by location: large cities and popular tourist destinations have more providers, while smaller destinations may receive fewer quotes.
- The cheapest price is not necessarily the best: compare the vehicle model year, condition, deposit, documents that must be left with the shop, and the policy in case the vehicle breaks down.
- You still need to inspect the vehicle upon pickup: take photos and videos around the vehicle, test the brakes, lights, and horn, check the tires and fuel level, and agree on how scratches will be assessed.
- You are responsible for driving: the platform helps you find and compare vehicles; having a valid driving licence and complying with traffic laws are the renter’s responsibility.
- Bicycles: the current request form offers the “Self-drive motorbike” category; to rent a bicycle, check the bicycle section on the available vehicles page or clearly write “bicycle” in the notes.
Documents Required to Rent and Ride a Motorbike
- Vietnamese citizens: motorbikes up to 125cc require an A1 licence, while those over 125cc require an A licence (under the 2024 Law on Road Traffic Order and Safety).
- Foreign visitors: an International Driving Permit (IDP) under the 1968 Vienna Convention together with a national driving licence, or a Vietnamese driving licence.
- Rental shops usually keep copies of documents or a deposit; avoid leaving your original passport whenever possible. You can filter for vehicles with “no retention of original documents” on the available vehicles page.
- Always wear a helmet with the strap fastened and carry the vehicle documents provided by the rental shop.
How to Post a Motorbike Rental Request
- Go to the motorbike rental request page and select “Self-drive motorbike”.
- Enter the pickup location, pickup date, return date, number of vehicles, and preferred type (manual, automatic, or clutch).
- Add any special requests: delivery to your hotel, extra helmets, no original documents left with the shop, and so on.
- Wait for quotes from the rental shops, compare them, and choose the most suitable option.
- Track other requests at the rental request list.
