Where and how to rent a scooter in Lisbon?

Want to rent a scooter to visit the Portuguese capital freely? The editor tells you everything about scooter rental in Lisbon.

Lisbon, the capital of Portugal, spans 83.84 km2 and has many neighbourhoods with different atmospheres. In addition, some of them – the most popular and authentic – are located on hills where dozens of small alleys flow. Let’s add to this the fact that the city can be crowded and saturated with botttling at times of affluence, and we easily understand the interest of renting a scooter in Lisbon.

On the one hand, visit Lisbon in scooter will give you a great feeling of freedom, the ability to engulf you in small sinuous corners of the city as mice in a house. On the other hand, you will sail at your pace, without getting tired of climbing the seven hills – which make up the Portuguese capital – all to take a breathtaking view of the sea. And in addition, you can make it easy to get to Sintra , or to beaches like Cascais, without having any parking galery, the black beast of motorists in Lisbon.

Tips to choose his scooter

Before taking a vehicle in hand, you must always read the terms of the rental contract and check that there is no hidden vice. We never know who we are dealing with, and the risk of suffering a scam always flat like a sword of Damocles above our portfolios...

Think about the use you will have of the vehicle: the power of the engines can range from 50 cc to 700 cc, which will impact the rental price.

Check at the time of recovering the keys that the scooter rental contract in Lisbon states:

• The name of the loueur,
• The brand,
• The model,
• Vehicle registration number,
• Your identity,
• The amount of the security deposit,
• The clauses that may cause his non-refund,
• Mileage to the counter,
• The date and time of the rental start,
• The type of scooter insurance (all risks, au-tiers),
• The amount of the franchise
• Make a statement of the location of the scooter (carnage, brake, mirrors, seal, wheels, accelerator, exhaust, etc.).

Some checks may seem so obvious that they would become useless – check the name of the renter for example – but in the event of an accident, you will be poorly covered if these user checks were overlooked.
