How to rent a motorbike in Tra Vinh step by step
Tra Vinh motorbike rental is quick, cheap and low-hassle once you know the routine. Here is how to do it right:
- Book ahead in festival season. Around the Khmer festivals of Chôl Chnăm Thmây and Ok Om Bok the town fills up, so message a shop or your host a day or two early.
- Bring your papers. Carry your passport, home driving licence and an International Driving Permit. Most shops take a passport photo or a cash deposit rather than the original.
- Inspect the bike. Test the brakes, lights, horn and mirrors, and photograph any scratches before you ride off so the deposit dispute never happens.
- Agree the deposit. Expect a passport copy or 1–3 million₫. Get the daily rate, the fuel policy and the return time written down or sent over Zalo.
- Check fuel & helmets. Bikes often leave nearly empty — fill up at the first station in town. Insist on two decent helmets, not thin plastic shells.
- Save the shop’s Zalo. A quick Zalo message is the fastest way to sort a flat tyre, a breakdown or a late return anywhere in the province.
Licence & law for foreigners
Ride legally — the delta highways and the coastal road to Ba Động are regularly policed.
The best motorbike routes around Tra Vinh
Ao Bà Om & Chùa Âng
The province’s icon — a sacred rectangular pond ringed by centuries-old trees with dramatic exposed roots, beside the ancient Chùa Âng pagoda and the Khmer Culture Museum.
Chùa Hang (Kompong Chrây)
A serene Khmer pagoda in Châu Thành famous for its wood-carving workshop and the storks and herons that roost in its shady grove at dusk.
Chùa Vàm Ray
The largest Khmer pagoda in the delta, a breathtaking gold-and-orange Angkor-style temple in Trà Cú with a giant reclining Buddha — well worth the ride south.
Ba Động beach & Duyên Hải
Follow flat coastal roads to the long, quiet sands of Ba Động, passing the spinning turbines of the Duyên Hải wind farm where the delta meets the sea.
Cồn Chim & Cồn Hô
Little river islets reached by short ferry, where villagers run gentle community eco-tourism — organic gardens, home cooking and a wonderfully slow pace.
Đền thờ Bác Hồ (Long Đức)
A peaceful memorial temple to President Hồ Chí Minh set in gardens on the city’s edge, a quiet and much-visited local landmark.
Safety & riding tips
- Treat QL53 and QL54 with respect. The main highways carry fast trucks and buses — keep right, signal early and avoid them after dark where a smaller road exists.
- Mind the ferries. To reach Cồn Chim and the islets you cross by small boat; board slowly and walk the bike over wet ramps.
- Watch for sand near the coast. The road out to Ba Động can carry wind-blown sand, so ease off your speed on exposed stretches.
- Carry rain gear. The delta gets sudden downpours in the wet season — a cheap poncho lives easily under the seat.
- Fuel up in town. Stations are plentiful in Trà Vinh city but thin out toward the coast and Trà Cú, so top up before you head off.

How much is motorbike rental in Tra Vinh in 2026?
Around 80,000–130,000₫ (about $3–5) a day for a scooter or manual bike, and up to 180,000₫ for a newer sport bike. Multi-day and weekly hires are usually discounted.
Can foreigners legally rent and ride in Trà Vinh?
Yes. Carry an International Driving Permit (1968 Vienna Convention) together with your home licence, and always wear a helmet — the delta highways are regularly policed.
What are the must-see sights in Trà Vinh?
Ao Bà Om and its Khmer museum, the pagodas Chùa Âng, Chùa Hang and the golden Vàm Ray, plus Ba Động beach and the Cồn Chim eco-islet are all within an easy ride.
How do I get to Trà Vinh?
Trà Vinh sits about 130 km from Sài Gòn and 70 km from Cần Thơ. Most travellers arrive by bus, then rent a bike in town, or ride down from Vĩnh Long across the Cổ Chiên bridge.
Why is Trà Vinh known for Khmer culture?
It has one of Vietnam’s largest Khmer communities and hundreds of ornate Khmer Theravada pagodas, giving the province a distinctive architecture, cuisine and festival calendar.
Is Ba Động beach worth the ride?
For a quiet, local seaside escape, yes — it is a long, breezy stretch of delta coast about 55 km east, best paired with a look at the Duyên Hải wind farm.
When is the best time to ride in Trà Vinh?
The dry season from November to April is easiest, and it overlaps with the colourful Ok Om Bok festival, while April brings the Khmer new year, Chôl Chnăm Thmây.
Do I need a deposit to rent a bike?
Usually a passport copy or 1–3 million₫ in cash. Some shops, such as Tuyết Linh, rent on just your licence and ID with no cash deposit held.
