Motorcycle & Scooter rentals in Santa Marta

If you’re thinking about doing a moto tour and have made it to the point of reading these reviews… look no further and just commit. We did a 7 day tour with Sam as our guide and it was the most adventurous, fun, and truly best trip that will go down in the books! We were a group with ages ranging from 30-65 and I can’t imagine a bad trip with this company. They were our translators/mechanics/guides all in one and were able to make us feel safe while having the best time. Everyday was a new adventure with a route planned just for the skill level of your group. Every accommodation was out of this world beautiful and the food was top notch. If you have any interest in a motobike tour, then you should do it. Words don’t do the trip or this company justice on how amazing it was.

Best motorcycle tour ever. This is a TOP activity to do in Santa Marta! Do not miss the opportunity to do that. It is cheap and they are super professional and wonderful guides. We all had a blast and wish to come back asap!!!

Are you looking for a Motorcycle adventure in Colombia? Or do you just want to rent a scooter or motorcycle? Whether you have a small group or a large group, Adrenaline Addicts have you covered. Do you have novice riders in your group, no problem. The guides will work with you. Are you looking for something more extreme to challenge yourself, be careful of what you wish for. Although they have set tours, any of it can and probably will be modified as they tour progresses. You won't be disappointed by choosing to ride with Adrenaline Addicts.

I did a small solo trip from Santa Marta to Minca, and Minca to Palomino. There is no better way to see the columbian country than on a motorbike. It's worth every penny, it was the highlight of my trip. Very easy communication, simple and only took 20 minutes to get everything sorted out. This is something that if you're on the fence about doing, I'd suggest doing it. You won't regret it.

Great experience with this company. We rented a motorbike after doing the 3 days tour. Stunning point of views and native village

I had such a great time with Adrenaline Addicts! My friend & I did a 1-day tour on starter motorbikes from Santa Marta to Palomino and back. Training was solid (I had never ridden a motorcycle before), tour was fantastic (great hike to a waterfall where you could do some cliff jumping), and Sam was a pleasure to interact with & very well prepared. Highly recommend!

We had a great experience renting a scooter at Joan’s place: easy communication, very friendly, everything went very smoothly and we had some super interesting discussions while waiting for the rain to stop ! Joan even gave us a ride home :) we will be happy to book a motorbike again here !

Coolest dudes I've ever met. Not to mention they are guiding top notch tours in a beautiful place. Rent a motorbike or take a guided tour, you won't regret it and most likely it will be the best thing you did on your colombia adventure. If there were more stars I'd give them more

Took my son on the 4-day mud and mountains tour with 4 other friends. Our guides Chris, Carlos, and Kimo were great. The riding varied from fun cruising to some fairly rough enduro sections. The three hostels we stayed at couldn’t be more different from each other. The first one where we floated down the Buritaca was the party spot. They were bumping EDM until 3am. The food was really really good. The tubing was chill and amazingly fun. The second hostel was quiet and doubled as a nature preserve. That was maybe the coolest place I’ve ever been. My son and I stayed in the treehouse. And did a medicinal plant tour in the morning. Got to see their rescued caimans, parrots and 3meter long fish the feed raw chicken to. The third hostel had an incredible view from the infinity pool and Chris took us up the most challenging section at 3 am to see the sunrise. They’re also very close to a microbrewery and have their beer on tap. A couple things to note. Their guides are incredibly attentive and want to make sure you have the time of your life. Dump your motorbike in an enduro section and they’re Johnny on the spot helping in every way. Also, if you break a part on a motorbike, they only charge for replacement at the end. I snapped off a mirror, and I think they charged me about $20USD to replace. My son races motocross, so $20 after 4 days of relatively intense riding was nothing! Overall, I can’t recommend it enough. I assume the other tours vary in how advanced the riding is. But these guys make sure you’re safe, having fun, and experiencing the country. Do it, you won’t regret it!

If I could rate 10 stars I would easily. Truly the trip of a lifetime with Adrenaline Addicts. The motorbikes were a total blast, the food was incredible and diverse, the accommodations and hospitality were above and beyond. The guides Chris, Tom, and Christian really provided an unforgettable experience for us all. If a motorbike went down they were there before you even realized what happened to get you back up. They were a total blast to cheers a drink with at the end of each day and I can speak for the group that we now consider them friends even after the trip. The views were out of this world and the 4am ride through the jungle to the sunrise was so special. I could go on and on, hands down the best way to experience Colombia and I can’t wait to go back for round 2

My boyfriend surprised me with an amazing 5-day moto tour with Adrenaline Addicts in the northern Colombian desert for my birthday. It was truly a trip of a lifetime! Our guides Sebastián and Mateo took great care of us, everything from ordering our meals, paying for our meals and entrance fees, leading the way, arranging hostel reservations, meeting local guides, knowing when and where to gas up, to fixing flat tires and broken mirrors! I appreciate them both so much, and all the laughs we shared. I feel like I became good friends with them and the other 4 people in the group. I'm shorter (5'3"), but was able to ride the 150cc Honda XR just fine, the motorcycles were well maintained and had brand new tires. I didn't have very much experience on dirt and literally no experience riding in sand, but by the end of the trip I was feeling super confident with ALL scenarios (heavy rain, highway, packed dirt, loose dirt, single track, sand, rocks/gravel, darting goats, high winds, and passing cars at high speeds). Sebastián and Mateo both being photography/filmmakers was also a huge bonus, because I definitely wanted to capture some of our amazing journey through cactus forests, coast riding next to the beautiful Caribbean sea, and the seemingly chaotic flow of cities. Another big bonus was our evening side adventures after checking into our hostel each night such as; a tour of the salt mines of Manaure with a local guide, lighthouse/pilon sunset hikes in Cabo de la Vela, and even a mid-day hike to waterfalls to cool off in the jungle. Overall I'm so grateful for this entire trip, and have already encouraged other friends to contact Sam to schedule a tour of their own. Most importantly, I always felt safe, I learned a lot about the Colombian culture, my Spanish improved, my off-road motorcycle skills grew immensely, and I made some life-long friends. Five thousand Stars!

Communication on the front end was a little unclear, but this was our first guided moto trip, and we didn’t know what we didn’t know. Ask lots of questions. That being said, our guides were great, the scenery spectacular, accommodations entirely adequate ( don’t expect luxury), and we had a big adventure. Would absolutely do another tour with these guys.

Christian at Adrenaline Addicts is a great guy. Very fair price, friendly staff, and convenient/flexible drop off times. Rent a motorbike with these guys!

March 20, 2022

This was our 5th journey with Adrenaline Addicts! Each time we have ridden with them, it has been a new adventure! This latest trip was from Medellin to San Gill and around the Canyons. Epic!!! Andy led us to some road less travelled, and at each bend we were awestruck by the magnificence of the mountains and canyons. He taught us about the local culture and the history of those remote villages. His love for his country was imminent in his passion to explore with us. And explore we did! The only way to see the true Colombia is by Moto. Sam and Andy made sure we didn't miss a thing. And the cuisine along the way...outstanding choices. And let me add, that not only was the riding fantastic, exciting and glorious but the extra events were insurmountable. We bungee jumped, rock climbed, spelunked (the caving was so cool!), white water rafted, played in waterfalls, and even paraglided!!!!! Our evenings were super fun too because, well, these guys have undoubtedly become good friends. Thank you so much Andy, Sam, you made our latest experience one of the best and one to always remember for sure!!!

Rented the 150cc for a trip around minca. Perfect motorbike for that, well maintained. Glad to have a quality brand motorbike there, heard some stories about Chinese motorbike that broke through material failure. Also super fair prices when you damage things in the motorbike. And good helmet included as well as optional rental gear available. 5/5

Aug. 14, 2022

I had a great 2 week long adventure around the coast and minca with the Honda 190. it was the perfect balance between light off road motorbike and still being fast enough on the roads, i would get the same again next time. the guys are cool, professional and easy to deal with, easy to contact on whatsapp to arrange extension. i snapped of a wing mirror on my travels and they were cool about it i paid about 20,000 pesos more which i was happy with. reccommend, will use again in future. 🤙

Absolutely amazing motorcycle rental company. I strongly recommend it to anyone planning a road trip through Colombia. The motorbikes, brand new Honda 300 XRE, small trail/enduro motorbikes, were the best you can have to travel through Colombia: light and manœuvrable, yet powerful enough to overtake the trucks and other motorbikes of Colombia (most motorbikes here are 150-200cc), strong, amazingly reliable, amazingly resistant, perfect for landroads (Colombia has no real highways), mountain, sandy tracks, jungle, offload, mud... We had the greatest adventure of our lives my cousin and I, on our 2000km trip, on our own, from Santa Marta to Medellín. And without those motorbikes, it wouldn't have been the same: We passed through a lot of adventures withthem, immense freedom, fun, pain as well, high heat, cold rainy mountain weather, dirt, and they never left us stuck. My heart felt heavy in Medellín when I knew we saw our two Hondas for the last time. THANK YOU SO MUCH!! Yan and Xavier, from Luxembourg and Belgium (EU).

This was the most amazing experience on my trip to Colombia! We did the 3 day coast to jungle extreme moto tour- Palomino, Buritaca, and Minca! Not only was the experience amazing but our guide NUMAS was amazing too. I highly recommend the service and NUMAS as your guide!

Oct. 23, 2023

Hands down the best motorcycle agency in the country. Adrenaline Addicts were simply amazing. I ended up having a private tour and my guide Max was truly spectacular. He knew the best roads, the best places and the best people! I did the 3-day Coast to Jungle tour and I fully recommend it. The places where we stayed had breathtaking views and the roads were the perfect balance of enduro and tarmac. I am definitely coming back to Santa Marta for more tours with Adrenaline Addicts and hopefully with as the guide Max!

April 28, 2023

The guys at Adrenalin Addicts were awesome to deal with! Rented a CB125 to go solo from SM-Minca and up the coast SM-Palomino- Riohacha for a few days. Great people, views, towns & riding. Could've gone with a 150 for a bit faster ride but so many towns/speed bumps, checkstops that you really only go about 30-80km/hr and its about the journey. This smaller street motorbike was also easy for lane-splitting/weaving through city traffic and small town dirt roads. Also good helmet that fit me! Would rent from them again and plan to do so in Medellin next trip!

Feb. 24, 2024

Did a several day road trip with these guys and it was a great way to get off the beaten path. AKT200 was a solid motorbike for the terrain. They also provided helmet, gloves and pads if you wanted it. Super easy pick-up process and we hit the road! Adrien also handled some unexpected curve balls with grace, even though I’m sure they were a bit stressful. Nice to have him along to take care of those things!

Feb. 12, 2022

Best moto rental in Santa Marta. The owners are friendly, very flexible and have good prices. The motorbikes are in a good shape and everything went just perfect!

Nov. 27, 2021

Very nice! We rented the Honda Navi motorbikes and did a tour around Minca by ourself. It was very nice they could bring and pick up the motorbikes and is was very fun to drive around. Really recommened this company if you are looking for a motorbike or guided tour around Minca/Santa Marta

Aug. 10, 2022

My partner and I did the promotional couples moto tour with Adrian. Adrian was an amazing host and guide. We loved staying at his place, a secluded cabin in the jungle that had everything we needed and a beautiful waterfall a short walk away. The walk to the native village was such an authentic and unique experience. Highly recommend!

10/10 the Best motorcycle rental company in Santa Marta. Good prices anda excellent motorcycles.

June 30, 2023

What an incredible action packed vacation. From the terrain, to the guides, to the accommodations and the food - and all of the extras thrown in. It was definitely worth every penny. Highly recommend Adrenaline Addicts! They didn't hold back for our all-women's dirt motorbike crew from Dirtastic USA - offering options for more technical terrain as available. They really went above an beyond to bring the beautiful culture of Colombia into the trip as well.

Absolutely fantastic experience. I went on a solo trip for 3 weeks in the Guajira Desert and from Santa Marta to Medellin. The staff of Adrenaline Addicts were very kind and professional. No hidden costs, everyone speaks English perfectly. The motorbikes are in good state. I rented the 150cc Honda. During my trip the staff was always reachable via WhatsApp and they were happy to help me with any tips on what route take and what/what not to visit. When I had some small issues with the motorbike they also helped me to get that fixed well. This is sure the best way to experience the real Colombia! The fact that they have multiple locations in the country (and expanding) makes this company the best option. Thanks guys!

I had a wonderful time renting a motorcycle here. The owner was very friendly and helped me figure out where to go visit with the motorbike. I was in a motorcycle accident and had to spend a few days in the hospital. As a lone traveler that doesn't speak much Spanish, that was very difficult. Adrenaline addicts did everything they could to help me out. They kept in touch with me while I was in the hospital and even went to grab my stuff from the hostel and bring it to me. When the hostel demanded that I pay before they release my things, the guy that went to pick my stuff up took care of it. These guys really showed that they care about their customers and I recommend them to anyone looking to go for a ride around Colombia.

Excellent service and great motorcycle choice variety, strongly recommend!

I wanted to rent a motorbike to go to Minca, and Johan made the whole process easy. He spoke fluent English and quickly set me up with a motorcycle. Not long after, I was on my way. While riding on a dirt road in Minca, I hit my foot on a rock. It was painful, so I decided to cut my trip short and head back. When I returned the motorbike, Johan noticed I was hurt and immediately stepped in to help. He drove me to the bus station so I could catch my flight. We got there just a little too late—the last bus had already left. The only option was to catch one from the next city, 15 minutes away, and it was leaving soon. Without hesitation, Johan grabbed a bigger motorbike and got me there just in time. I don’t usually leave reviews, but Johan went above and beyond to help me out. If you’re looking to rent a motorcycle, he’s the guy to go to. Solid motorbikes, smooth process, and great service. Highly recommend!

Amazing company and people. TRUSTWORTHY, Professional, super nice and caring. All of the low star reviews are either one offs or fake. I did a one day tour in Santa Marta to Minca doing some intermediate/advanced dirt trails along the way. My guide Sante was the nicest guy ever, it was just me and him all day from 9am-5pm and he made it a priceless experience. He told me stories, we talked about ourselves and personal lives, and just had a great time. The company is professional, has a professional website, banks set up in the US, good English speakers, and didn’t take advantage of me or do anything negative whatsoever. I can’t recommend enough and will for sure be bragging about Adrenaline Addicts for years to come! The only points of caution would be to make sure you know how to ride a motorcycle or take proper training when there and maybe watch some YouTube videos prior. The streets/traffic is also aggressive with no rules followed so be careful when driving and make sure you are confident in your control and abilities. I do recommend renting their gear for better protection.

Had such a great experience with Adrenaline Addicts! It is a highly professional team, and even more so they are super friendly and helpful. Went on an overnight trip with them to Palomino which was super great. Especially with the great professional care of Santiago! He makes sure the guests are doing fine at any given moment of the day. Everything was well organised, the motor in good condition and had a lovely night at El Rio Hostel. Went tubing, visited a beautiful waterfall and had a great lunch with the best view at The Journey Hostel. Overall just an amazing experience and I would highly advice others that are interested to rent a motorbike here or go on a trip with them! They have trips in many shapes and forms. One of them will sure be of your liking. 5 out of 5!

We (husband, son and myself) did the UNESCO tour (6 days) with our guide Santiago. Although I hadn’t drove a motorcycle for 20 years, and I started a bit anxious, I can only say: it was very, very nice. We saw a various landscape, nice places, and Santiago never got bored giving interesting facts about de places we visited. And we where lucky: carnaval time! We can recomment Adrinalin Addicts when you want to see and experiance Colombia. Also due to Santiago we had a wonderfull time. Thx!!!

Feb. 21, 2024

We chose to do the 4-day ride to Cabo de la Vela and, a month on, are still thinking about how incredible this almost outer-worldly experience was. Our guide Daniel got us there and back safely, and while we had some motorbike issues along the way (as is to be expected), Daniel instilled the help of every available local to get us back on the road. Communication is also top notch. Thanks team!

Aug. 20, 2023

We did different our holidays going through the north coast by motorcycle, they were really nice with us every moment and we really enjoyed our time in Colombia, amazing experience!!!!!
