How Much Does It Cost to Rent a Motorbike in Phu Quoc?

By Alex Nguyen · Updated October 2026 · 7 min read

How much does it cost to rent a motorbike in Phu Quoc per day? For a normal automatic scooter, plan on 120,000–150,000 VND per day. Manual bikes often sit at 120,000–130,000 VND, while newer or stronger models can reach 150,000–200,000 VND. The quote changes with the season, rental length, bike condition, and delivery point.

I repair the bikes after guests return them, so I look at the parts behind the price. A cheap quote is not useful if the tyres are worn, the brakes pull to one side, or the shop adds a deposit and delivery charge at handover. This guide uses typical 2025–2026 market ranges; rates change, especially around public holidays. For the models we keep available, see the GoBike fleet.

Daily Phu Quoc Motorbike Rental Prices by Bike Type

The everyday benchmark is 120,000–150,000 VND for a standard automatic scooter. A manual Honda Wave or Yamaha Sirius is often 120,000–130,000 VND per day, while larger, newer, or better-equipped bikes may cost 150,000–200,000 VND. Those ranges are for the bike only unless the quote clearly says otherwise.

Bike or rental plan	Typical price	What to check
Standard automatic scooter	120,000–150,000 VND/day	Tyres, brakes, lights, storage
Manual Honda Wave or Yamaha Sirius	120,000–130,000 VND/day	Clutch feel and gear changes
Newer or stronger model	150,000–200,000 VND/day	Engine response and damage record
Honda Vision 110	$5–7/day; $30–40/week; $80–120/month	Exact model year and rental term

The Honda Vision 110 is commonly advertised at $5–7 per day, $30–40 per week, and $80–120 per month. Do not compare that foreign-currency listing with a VND quote until you know if both include the same number of days, delivery, helmets, and deposit terms.

A low-powered moped can start around 120,000 VND for one day, but “from” prices usually describe limited stock or a basic model. If you need a two-up scooter for the north island roads, ask for the actual registration and engine size rather than assuming the cheapest bike will suit two riders. The current pricing page is the sensible place to check before booking.

How Rental Length Changes the Daily Rate

One day is normally the expensive way to rent. Weekly discounts of about 15–20% are common, and some longer-rental offers reduce the daily cost by roughly 30–40%. The difference depends on the shop and model, so compare the full total for seven or thirty days rather than multiplying a headline daily price.

For a short stay, a 120,000–150,000 VND daily rate is the practical planning figure for a standard automatic. For a week, ask whether the quoted total includes every calendar day, late return, replacement after a breakdown, and delivery back to your hotel. A “weekly” price that excludes one of those items is not a real comparison.

Monthly deals commonly reduce the daily equivalent by 25–35%. I prefer writing the return date on the handover form; it avoids the argument I once had at 8:10 p.m. when a guest counted seven nights and the rental shop counted seven 24-hour periods. If you plan a longer stay, compare with long-term rental options.

Does Season or Pickup Location Affect the Price?

Yes. Peak travel periods and public holidays can push rates higher because the available bikes go first. A dated quote is more useful than a generic website price, particularly for Christmas, New Year, Tet, and busy beach weekends. In quieter periods, shops may have more flexibility on a weekly booking.

Delivery around Duong Dong and Phu Quoc Airport is usually free. Bai Vong pier and Grand World commonly add 50,000–100,000 VND per trip. Phu Quoc Airport is about 9–10 km by road from Duong Dong, while Bai Vong to Duong Dong is about 27 km by road, so the extra delivery charge is not mysterious; it pays for the rider’s time and fuel.

Tell the shop your hotel name, not only “near the beach.” Long Beach, Duong Dong, Ong Lang, and the northern resorts are different delivery runs. If your flight lands late, confirm the handover time in writing through the delivery information page rather than assuming a daytime promise covers midnight.

What Is Normally Included?

A normal rental package usually covers the motorcycle for the agreed period and one or two helmets. Fuel is not included: the bike should be returned with the agreed fuel level. Ask about delivery, pickup, a rain poncho, phone holder, and roadside help because these small items differ between shops and can change the useful price by 50,000–100,000 VND.

A reputable handover should include a quick brake, tyre, light, horn, mirror, and indicator check. Photograph scratches, cracked panels, the odometer, and the fuel gauge before leaving. I mark deep panel damage with the guest present; it takes two minutes and saves a bad conversation later. The rental policies page should explain damage and late-return rules.

Insurance needs separate attention. Rental pricing does not automatically provide comprehensive personal cover. Ask what happens after a crash, whether third-party liability is excluded, and who pays towing or medical costs. Read the policy before riding, especially if you are unfamiliar with Vietnamese traffic. Our Vietnam motorbike insurance guide covers the questions I tell guests to ask.

Deposits, Passport Copies, and Extra Charges

Many reputable shops require no cash deposit. Others ask for 1,000,000–2,000,000 VND or a photocopy of your passport. Never hand over your original passport as security. If a shop asks for a cash deposit, get the amount, refund timing, and deductions written on the agreement before taking the keys.

Possible extras include delivery outside the usual zone, fuel shortfall, damage, a lost key, a late return, or a replacement helmet. None should appear only after you have parked at the hotel. Ask for the total in VND, the deposit requirement, and what happens if the scooter develops a mechanical fault.

A breakdown caused by normal mechanical failure is different from damage caused by a collision or careless riding. Keep the rental phone number in your phone and stop riding if the brakes feel wrong or the engine overheats. The scooter safety guide is worth reading before taking a night ride outside Duong Dong.

How to Compare a Cheap Quote Properly

Start with the same question to every shop: “What is the total price in VND for this exact bike, for these exact dates, delivered to this hotel?” Then ask about the deposit, insurance wording, fuel, helmets, late return, and help after a breakdown. A 100,000 VND headline rate can become more expensive once those terms are added.

Look at the machine before paying. The front tyre should have visible tread, both brakes should work without grinding, the headlight and indicators should function, and the steering should not feel loose. Check the registration details match the bike. If the shop refuses a damage photo, choose another one; this is a small warning, not a bargaining point.

For a first day on the island, I would rather pay the normal 120,000–150,000 VND automatic-scooter range for a mechanically sound bike than save 20,000 VND and spend an afternoon waiting for a repair. If you are unsure about local traffic, read the Vietnam traffic rules guide before collecting the scooter.
