Manual and Semi-Automatic Bike Rental Phu Quoc
Editorial team · Checked 5 November 2026

In short
Manual and semi-automatic bikes are the cheapest rentals, listed at about USD 5 to 8 per day (checked 5 November 2026). They suit experienced riders; first-timers are usually better on an automatic.
What it is and who it suits
Manual and semi-automatic bikes are usually the cheapest rentals on Phu Quoc, and one operator lists them at about USD 5 to 8 per day (a guide range checked on 5 November 2026). They need gear changes, so they suit riders who already use a gearbox or clutch and want the lowest price. Most first-time visitors are better off on an automatic.
Manual bikes are usually described as Yamaha Sirius and Honda Wave models. Semi-automatics are described as the Honda Wave or Yamaha Nouvo. Local guides report a semi-automatic takes about 15 to 20 minutes to learn, while an automatic takes 3 to 5 minutes.
Good use cases: an experienced rider on a budget, short trips on main roads, or a traveller who already rides a gear bike at home. If you have never used a clutch, read Automatic Scooter or Manual Bike for Phu Quoc before you choose.
What is included
Inclusions belong to each operator, and we do not promise a standard package. Some operators include extras and others charge for them, so ask whether your quote includes:
- a helmet, and how many
- fuel in the tank at pickup
- delivery to your hotel or a set pickup point
- insurance or damage terms
- help or a replacement if the bike breaks down

Price range
Figures differ by operator. This is a guide range checked on 5 November 2026.
| Bike | Guide price in USD | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Manual or semi-automatic, per day | about 5 to 8 | one operator lists this range |

The price moves with the model and its age, the number of days, the season, delivery and the deposit terms. Ask whether a longer rental lowers the daily rate. For automatic prices, see Automatic Scooter Rental Per Day in Phu Quoc.

Safety and conditions
- Try the gear changes in a quiet spot before you join the main road. Manual bikes are not ideal for first-time riders.
- Licence rules apply to petrol bikes. Operators and local sources report what is needed; confirm the current rule on WhatsApp or on the beach.
- Check brakes, tyres, lights and mirrors before you leave, and photograph any marks on the bike.

- If you want more power for hills or a passenger, look at 150cc and Big Bike Rental in Phu Quoc.
