Good to know before you ride

What do I need to rent a bike in Sri Lanka?+

Your passport, a valid driving licence from home and an International Driving Permit. Foreign riders also need a Sri Lankan recognition permit from the AA of Sri Lanka or the Department of Motor Traffic — partner shops will tell you which of the two applies to your bike and help you arrange it.

Is the bike insured?+

Every booking includes basic third-party cover and a helmet. A daily excess applies, and you can reduce it to zero in the app for a few dollars a day.

How much does it cost per day?+

Automatic scooters start at about $9 per day, 125cc semi-automatics at about $12, and 250cc adventure bikes at about $18. Weekly and monthly rentals are discounted, with the deepest discounts around Ahangama and Weligama.

How does pickup work?+

You book a town, dates and a bike class in the app, then meet the shop at the time you chose. Most pickups take under 15 minutes, and in Habaraduwa, Ahangama and Mirissa many shops deliver to your hotel.

Can I return the bike in a different town?+

Yes. Choose a drop-off town at booking and hand the bike to any partner shop along the southern coast between Hikkaduwa and Mirissa.

Do I need a licence for a 50cc scooter?+

Yes. Sri Lanka has no licence-free class for motorised two-wheelers, so you need a licence valid for motorcycles plus the local recognition permit, whatever the engine size.
