Everything was smooth and great!! We rented a motorbike and a scooter and the machines are great, basically new. They came with helmets and boxes and even gloves. He was super helpful with everything. Next time again!:)

Arriving into Madeira Airport puts you right near the coastal town of Machico in Portugal. With its location on the south side of the island, it makes for a great starting point before touring the rest of this picturesque volcanic island. Getting a scooter rental or motorcycle rental gives you the freedom to discover all that Madeira has to offer.
Machico itself dates back to the 15th century when it was founded by early Portuguese settlers. Wander the lively harborfront and enjoy fresh grilled fish at one of the many restaurants. Then walk up to the Fort of São João Baptista, which offers panoramic views over the bay and ocean beyond.
The winding narrow streets and pastel-colored houses showcase Machico's charming ambiance. Just minutes from town, ride your motorbike along the coastal road, passing banana plantations and cliffs plunging into the sea. Stop to take in the magnificent views at Cabo Girão, Europe’s second highest sea cliff.
Further west, continue on through tunnels carved into the mountainside as you make your way to the surf town of Porto da Cruz. Inland from Machico, discover the lush forests and waterfalls of Madeira's interior. Ride through the mountains to Santana to see the traditional triangular houses with thatched roofs.
Or head past winding roads to the hilltop town of Ribeiro Frío. Here you’ll find the Balcões viewpoint overlooking the valley, as well as hiking trails through laurel forest leading to waterfalls. With so much natural beauty to uncover, having your own set of wheels like a scooter rental or motorcycle rental in Machico gives you the freedom and flexibility to explore Madeira's treasures at your own pace.
