The general rental price for motorbikes in Hue ranges from 90,000 to 100,000 VND for manual bikes and from 100,000 to 150,000 VND per person per day for automatic bikes, depending on the type and condition of the vehicle. Longer rentals typically cost from 500,000 to 700,000 VND per week.

Motorbikes can be rented through the hotel reception or at other locations in the city, then delivered directly to the hotel. The rental includes a helmet and a small amount of fuel; customers will refuel as needed.

According to a motorbike rental agency on Le Loi Street in the center of Hue City, when renting a motorbike, tourists will deposit between 200,000 and 300,000 VND depending on the type of motorbike, and the shop does not keep the tourists' personal documents. However, depending on the shop, you may still have to leave your Citizen Identification Card or some other document.

Car

If you're traveling in a large group or don't want to ride motorbikes, renting a car is a good option. According to a car rental agency in Hue, if you're only visiting one or two places, book a car per visit. However, if you're visiting many places, it's better to rent a car by the day, as the driver will be more willing to wait for you at various attractions, sightseeing spots, or restaurants.

Car rental also includes self-drive options. In addition to renting from the aforementioned agencies, tourists can also refer to two popular travel apps: mioto or chungxe.

Car rental prices in Hue City range from 800,000 VND to 1,000,000 VND per car per day. The rental period is typically from 7 AM to 7 PM. Whether you choose a self-drive or chauffeur-driven option, the price difference is not significant, depending on whether you require privacy and more control.

Besides renting a car through agencies, tourists can also choose taxis or ride-hailing services and pay according to the meter. It's important to choose reputable taxi companies.

Rickshaws and bicycles

These are two ideal modes of transportation for travelers with plenty of time, who don't mind the sun, and who only want to travel within the city center. Traveling by cyclo or bicycle allows travelers to leisurely admire the scenery or easily stop at places they like.

According to the Thua Thien Hue Department of Tourism, Hue city currently has over 2,000 cyclos belonging to various companies, including privately owned ones. Cyclos operate on fixed routes or according to the specific needs of each tourist. Fixed routes typically include: around the Imperial Citadel, Dong Ba Market - Dang Thai Than Street - Quang Duc Gate, Hien Nhon Gate - Doan Thi Diem Street - Dang Thai Than Street - Yet Kieu Street - Van Xuan Bridge - Phu Mong - Thien Mu Pagoda... with fares ranging from 40,000 to 100,000 VND per trip.

Taking photos with a cyclo (rickshaw) in the Trang Tien Bridge area or outside the Imperial Citadel is suitable for tourists who prefer a traditional style. Remember to ask for the price before using a cyclo as a means of transportation.

For bicycle rentals, guests should proactively ask the hotel reception as not all places offer this service. Bicycle rentals cost between 30,000 and 50,000 VND per day.
