Top 5 best quad bike (ATV) rentals in Hanoi

Picture weaving past the motorbike swarm around Hoan Kiem Lake not on two wheels but four, steady and planted, while the Old Quarter's tangle of 36 Streets opens up around you. An hour later you're climbing out of the city toward the pine-scented air of Ba Vi, or crossing the Red River to watch potters at work in Bat Trang. Renting a quad in Hanoi turns a chaotic capital into a launchpad for exactly this kind of day.

Hanoi's traffic is famously relentless — a river of scooters that doesn't really stop, even at red lights. A quad bike sits you higher and wider than a scooter, which makes you easier for other drivers to spot and gives you far more stability if you're not used to riding local-style. It's also the better choice once you leave the city: the day-trip routes to Ba Vi, Duong Lam and Tam Dao mix paved roads with rougher tracks, and a quad handles that combination, and the extra distance, more comfortably than a small scooter would. If you're travelling as a family or a small group, it also means you can ride together instead of splitting across several bikes.

What do you need to rent a quad bike in Hanoi?

Quad bikes aren't treated as ordinary road vehicles in Vietnam — they're mostly used on tracks, dunes and countryside routes through rental operators, who tend to supervise riders rather than check for a formal licence. Even so, we recommend bringing a valid driving licence and, if you have one, a 1968-convention International Driving Permit, since requirements can vary by operator. Most rental points set a minimum age of 18 and will ask for a cash deposit or your passport held as security; the amount depends on the shop and the model you choose.

How much does it cost to rent a quad bike in Hanoi?

Expect to pay around 400,000 VND per day in low season, rising to roughly 600,000–750,000 VND per day in high season. Larger or newer ATV and UTV models can run 800,000 VND to over 1,000,000 VND per day.

• Prices climb from December through February, when cool, dry weather brings the most visitors.
• Tet, the lunar new year holiday around January or February, can push prices even higher for about a week, with fewer bikes available.
• June to August is the cheapest and quietest stretch, alongside the April–May shoulder season.

When to book a rental quad bike in Hanoi?

Book ahead if you're coming between December and February — this is when Hanoi sees its biggest wave of international visitors and rental fleets thin out fastest, especially around Tet. For lower prices and easier availability, aim for the June to August low season or the April–May shoulder months, though be ready for Hanoi's summer heat and afternoon downpours. A few days' notice is usually enough outside peak weeks, but book a week or more ahead if your trip falls around the lunar new year.

Local traffic rules in Hanoi

Vietnam drives on the right. Helmets are compulsory for every rider and passenger on a motorised vehicle, and checks are routine, so keep yours on at all times. There's a zero-alcohol limit for anyone riding or driving — even one drink can mean a fine at a roadside checkpoint. Speed limits are lower inside built-up areas than on open roads and are always signposted, so read the signs as you go rather than assuming a fixed number. Headlights are required after dark, and motorbikes and quads are barred from expressways and a handful of major bridges and tunnels, so plan routes that stick to town and countryside roads.
