Frontier - Lots of people have come to love the motorcycle tour – a form of travel in Vietnam that has just been famous recently. If you are planning on hiring a motorbike for a trip in Vietnam, here are the tips that you should remember.
Cheap motorbikes are not always good
Nowadays, there are tons of motorbike renting services in Vietnam, resulting in the rental service providers also have different prices, sometimes only 10.000 VND, sometimes up to 20.000 per hour. Normally, the average rental car price is now around 80.000 – 110.000 VND per day, while scooter rental is 120.000 – 150.000 per day. During periods of high demand, such as New Year's or long holidays, the prices may increase slightly.
It is better to focus on the quality rather than the price of the motorbike
According to the experience of some backpackers or travelers that usually use motorcycles, the reason for this difference is due to the vehicle status. There are many young people like the cheap price, so they often choose low-quality motorcycles to hire. They always think that those rides are good because of the flashy appearance.
Not all cheap motorbikes are good-quality
When you rent a cheap motorbike, it may save you some money right now but later on the trip, you may encounter tons of troubles such as the ride break down, making the journey no longer complete and fun. Therefore, it is best to consult rental properties that are reputable even though the price may be slightly higher.

Check your motorbike before renting
If your travel itinerary is short, just around the city then it will be simpler because you can easily find a repairing place in the event of a ride breakdown. However, it will be a big nuisance when renting a motorbike if you are about to travel more than 100 kilometers, such as traveling across areas or going upland and mountainous areas.
At this time, the long-distance requires the motorbike to operate well and without damage to avoid having to walk long distances without finding a repair place.
Remember to check your ride carefully before renting
Therefore, you have to check your motorbike carefully, in order to avoid the ride being damaged before renting. Things you need to check carefully include the rearview mirror, the headlights to avoid having trouble with the traffic police, the brake, turn signals, horn to ensure the engine is still okay. It is best to test the ride before hiring. And do not forget to include the agreement if the vehicle has a problem, you have the right to change another motorbike and in case there is no other motorbike that fits, the rental service must give you a refund.
Keep your rent contract carefully
This may be a small detail, but extremely important to follow in the rental procedure. Any time when renting a motorbike you need to ask for a motorbike rental receipt. The receipt must include the following information: your license plate number, the date of rental and return, the type of documentation they hold. Nowadays fraud occurs quite often, some bad guys stole motorcycles and then subleased. Therefore, to avoid getting involved in the above incidents, please keep papers and daily rental receipts to protect yourself.
The receipt/contract of renting is really important
