Arriving in Hanoi by bus at or near Gia Lam Bus Station and looking for a motorbike to continue your trip? Nguyen Ha’s published rental shop is at Ngo 5 Nguyen Van Cu, Bo De, Long Bien, in the area near Gia Lam Bus Station. You can enquire about a semi-automatic motorbike, an automatic scooter or other available options and arrange a collection time. The shop is not advertised as a counter inside the bus station. This page explains how to plan the rental itself rather than assuming your coach drops you outside the shop.
For an actual quote, share the bike you need and your intended dates. You can request a rental quote or call +84 334 699 969. The published figures are a starting point: a booking, delivery and available vehicle are confirmed only when the shop agrees to them.
What to plan when arriving by coach
Different bus operators can use different stops or arrival points, so check the address where your specific coach actually drops passengers. Save the shop’s map location before you travel. The words ‘near Gia Lam Bus Station’ do not guarantee that your bus will arrive at the same gate, or that a rental bike will be waiting without a prior booking.
If you are carrying a suitcase or a large backpack, consider how you will get your luggage from the bus stop to your accommodation. A rental motorbike is not a substitute for safe luggage transport. You should only carry what can be secured without obstructing the controls, lights, number plate or your ability to steer.
Coach journeys can arrive late. Nguyen Ha publishes shop hours of 09:00–21:00 daily, and the actual bike and staff availability need confirmation. Send your intended arrival time before departing, update the shop if your journey is delayed and avoid making plans that depend on an unconfirmed after-hours handover.
Available bike types, rental periods and prices
Nguyen Ha’s published rental information covers semi-automatic bikes such as Honda Wave, automatic scooters including Honda Vision and Honda Air Blade, and some 50cc or electric options. Reference daily prices on the site’s Vietnamese price list include Honda Wave at VND 150,000 and Vision or Air Blade at VND 200,000. These examples are not a real-time inventory or a guaranteed quote for every date. Confirm the exact vehicle, weekly or monthly price, deposit and any extra services before paying.
- For a short Hanoi visit, compare a daily rental with your actual arrival and departure times.
- If you can confidently operate foot gears, ask about the Honda Wave and other semi-automatic options.
- If you prefer automatic controls, enquire about the specific scooter models currently available.
- For a multi-week stay, ask for a weekly or monthly quote, including the return and deposit terms.
Browse automatic scooter options and semi-automatic motorbikes to understand the differences. If you need the vehicle for an extended stay, use the monthly rental enquiry page rather than assuming that an advertised daily rate applies to a whole month.
Collecting a bike at the Long Bien shop
Nguyen Ha’s stated address is Ngo 5 Nguyen Van Cu, Bo De, Long Bien, Hanoi. Use a current map to navigate from your arrival stop; do not rely on a guessed walking distance or an unverified station entrance. Ask the shop to confirm that the model you want can be prepared at the agreed time.
At collection, verify the correct bike, rental dates, total charge, deposit and identification or licence requirements. Test the lights, horn, brakes, tyres, locks and fuel or battery level. Take photos of existing damage, ask how to contact the shop and keep the agreement accessible during the rental.
If you intend to ride straight to your hotel, check your route and parking options before leaving the shop. Hanoi roads include busy junctions and unfamiliar turning rules for visitors, so avoid rushing simply because you have just completed a long bus journey.
For general pickup and return rules, see motorbike pickup, return and delivery arrangements. A requested delivery address is not a confirmed booking. If your plans depend on a particular handover time, get the shop’s response in writing before arranging onward travel.
The shop itself is in Bo De ward, Long Bien. For the shop address, opening hours and what to expect when you collect there, see motorbike rental in Long Bien.
Documents, deposit and handover checklist
- Tell the shop which bike type you want, the exact pickup and return dates and where you would prefer to receive the vehicle.
- Ask which identification and driving licence documents are required for that particular motorbike. Your eligibility depends on the vehicle classification and applicable rules.
- Confirm the rental fee, any refundable deposit, how the deposit is returned, and any delivery or extension charges. The deposit is separate from rental income.
- Check brakes, tyres, lights, indicators, horn, mirrors, lock, bodywork, fuel or battery level and accessories at the handover. Keep dated photographs if needed.
- Agree on the return location and who to contact if you need to extend your rental or the motorbike develops a fault. Never assume an altered pickup or return location is accepted without confirmation.
Read how to book a motorbike with Nguyen Ha before transferring a deposit. Choose a motorcycle only if you have the appropriate riding experience and legal entitlement; a 50cc or electric option does not remove the need to verify the specific rules.
