Below are the top 10 Hanoi car rental without driver places that I rate the most, along with directions from my actual experience to help you choose easily.
10 self-driving rental car locations in Hanoi ranked
When I Travel to Vietnam I revisit many cities more than one time, and after many trips to Hanoi and experiencing many car rental services without a driver, I realized that not every place has new cars, good prices or quick procedures. Some places are far from the center, some places have old cars, and some places require quite complicated paperwork.
#1. Van Minh Auto | No. 143 Tran Phu, Ha Dong District
- Phone number: 0918 186 822
- Reference price: 800,000 – 1,200,000 VND/day depending on the car model
The first time I rented a self-driving car in Hanoi was at Van Minh Auto. I live in the Royal City area, so going along the Nguyen Trai – Ha Dong route is quite convenient, it only takes about 10-15 minutes to get to the store. Van Minh has many new cars, especially sedans and 7-seater cars from 2022-2024, with clean interiors and no unpleasant odors.
What I like most is the quick procedure, only need ID card + driver’s license to complete.

03 necessary notes for renting a car in Hanoi
When looking for Hanoi car rental without driver options, especially for foreign guests, there are some important points to note to ensure a safe and convenient trip. I will share 3 essential notes to help you avoid problems with paperwork, insurance and vehicle condition before receiving.
1. Need an international driving permit (IDP): Many tourists do not know that Vietnam only accepts certain types of IDP. Before renting a car, you need to check carefully to avoid being refused.
2. Note heavy traffic and rush hour: Hanoi has a large number of motorbikes. New drivers or foreigners need to drive slowly, observe a lot and avoid rush hour from 7am-9am and 5pm-7pm.
3. Check the car carefully before receiving: Take a video of the entire car, especially scratches, wheels and dashboard to avoid disputes when returning the car.
