Requirements
To rent from us, you must provide:
- Age: 18 years or older
- Valid Government ID: Philippine government-issued ID (National ID, PhilHealth, TIN, Voter's ID, Postal ID) — your ID will be held by us for the entire duration of your rental
- Accommodation Details: Hotel/resort name and room number
- Contact Number: Working phone number with WhatsApp
Why do we hold your ID? We keep your government ID while the bike is in your possession. This is for your own safety — in the event of an accident, we can use your ID to properly identify you and assist you immediately. Your ID will be returned to you when you return the bike.
IMPORTANT: We do NOT accept passports or driver's licenses as valid ID. Only Philippine government-issued IDs are accepted.
Under Philippine law, a valid driver's license is required to operate a motorcycle on public roads. We strongly advise all renters to carry their license while riding. We primarily hold a valid Philippine government-issued ID for the duration of your rental, but this does not exempt you from the legal requirement to have a license. You must have proper riding experience and comply with all Philippine traffic laws.
Yes! Foreigners are welcome to rent from us. Since most foreign guests do not have a Philippine government-issued ID, we accept a valid foreign passport as collateral instead. Your passport will be held securely for the entire rental period and returned to you when you return the bike. Please contact us via WhatsApp before booking so we can confirm arrangements.
Rental Details
The minimum rental period is 1 day (24 hours) from your pickup time. We also offer weekly and monthly rental options at discounted rates.
We're open 6:00 AM to 9:00 PM daily, 7 days a week. Bike pickups and returns must be done within these hours unless otherwise arranged.
Yes! You can extend your rental period by contacting us via WhatsApp before your original return time. Extensions are subject to bike availability and will be charged at the daily rate.
Late returns beyond your agreed rental period are charged at ₱50/hour, settled in cash when you return the bike. To avoid extra charges, arrange an extension via WhatsApp before your return time.
The motorbike is not provided with a full tank. Fuel is the renter's responsibility for the entire rental period. Please return the bike with at least the same fuel level as when you received it. Running out of fuel during your ride is your responsibility.
Safety & Support
Yes! Helmets are included free with every rental. We provide up to 2 helmets per motorbike. Wearing a helmet is mandatory by law in the Philippines.
We offer 24/7 roadside assistance. If you experience any mechanical issues, contact us immediately via WhatsApp at +63 907 352 7234. We will assist you promptly. Repairs due to normal wear and tear are covered by us, but damages due to misuse or accidents are the renter's responsibility.
You are responsible for any damage to the motorbike during your rental period. Repair costs will be assessed and charged to you. In case of accidents, you must:
- Report the incident immediately via WhatsApp
- File a police report if it involves third parties
- Not attempt unauthorized repairs
No insurance is included with the rental. You ride entirely at your own risk. You are personally responsible for any accidents, injuries, damages, or third-party claims that occur during your rental period. Please ensure you understand and accept this before renting.
