Testimonials

Hear it from them

Yamaha nMax is comfortable scooter. I have been good experience by scooters with my friends. We got three scooters. I went around an island per three days. I had parking on a view point, I bathed in warm springs, I went to the farm for fresh milk. I rode the scooter with confidence, even when it started raining, because this scooter is new and has excellent wheels. It was fantastic time on the island by scooter! 🙌❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Amazing experience with the rental shop! The scooter was in perfect condition, very clean, and super easy to ride. The staff was extremely friendly, professional, and always ready to help with tips about the best places to visit around São Miguel. Exploring the island by scooter was definitely the best decision - freedom to stop at viewpoints, beaches, and hidden spots anytime we wanted. The whole rental process was smooth and quick, and the prices were very fair for the quality of service provided. Highly recommended for anyone visiting the Azores who wants an unforgettable adventure. We will definitely rent again on our next trip!

A MELHOR EXPERIÊNCIA EM UMA MOTO NOS AZORES, É CLARO, NA rental shop.

Everything was perfect. The practically new scooter was very reliable. Very low fuel consumption, about 40 km per liter. The guys at Azotescar were also very kind.

May 26, 2026

Alquilamos 2 motos para pasar 1 día por la isla y no podemos estar más contentos, muy buen trato, rapidez, buen precio y poco papeleo. No nos pusieron trabas ni con el kilometraje, ni con la gasolina, ni con la hora de devolución, todo facilidades. Incluso a mitad de tarde necesitábamos 2 cascos más y llamamos y nos hicieron el favor sin problemas. Si el tiempo acompaña, la mejor manera de ver la isla es en moto, y desde luego no hay mejor empresa para hacerlo, muchas gracias!!!!

Experiência impecável! Aluguei uma moto para o final de semana e o processo foi super rápido e sem burocracia. A moto estava extremamente limpa, revisada e com os pneus em ótimo estado. Passa muita segurança para quem quer rodar sem preocupação. Recomendo demais!

Experiência simplesmente impecável! Desde o primeiro contacto até à entrega da viatura, fui sempre tratado com muita empatia, profissionalismo e simpatia. Equipa super acessível, prestável e sempre pronta a ajudar em tudo. A moto estava em excelentes condições, limpa e em perfeito estado para explorar a ilha de São Miguel. Nota-se mesmo que gostam do que fazem e colocam o cliente em primeiro lugar. Recomendo a 100% e sem dúvida que voltarei a escolher esta rent-a-car. Muito obrigado por tudo! 🙌

Affordable prices and reliable motorbikes, all new motorbikes. Great customer service-very friendly and helpful. Best motorbike rental on the island, highly recommend.

Five star rental service with Pedro! We rented a scooter for 8 days and had a fantastic time riding as the two of us. The scooters were in excellent condition and had no problem tackling the steep hills around the island. Extremely economical to ride too - €6 for a full tank. We stayed in Furnas and it was the perfect option for exploring the North and South of the island. We’ll be back!

Azores Active Rent staff were all very friendly, they offered a free upgrade of the scooter but also allowed me to keep the originally selected one. We were even supplied with a map of local attractions and a phone holder. The machine transported 2 people and some luggage on the steep mountain roads of the island without problems. The only small issue was that the headlight was slightly off and mostly illuminated the trees above the road instead of the asphalt. All in all, it was great, though! Recommended :)

Sept. 1, 2025

Amazing experience! Super easy and quick to pick up and drop off. I would recommend this company to every friend :)

Aug. 30, 2025

Amazing experience renting a motorcycle from this place! The booking process was quick and easy, and the staff was super friendly and helpful, guiding me through everything. The motorcycle was in excellent condition, well-maintained, and perfect for my ride. Thank you for making my trip so enjoyable! Highly recommend for anyone looking to rent a motorcycle.”

We were in Calhetas, on the other side of the island. There were no scooter rentals anywhere, but through Riderly, we found Azores Active Rent. The service was excellent, and the owner was super friendly. They even delivered the scooter to our hotel in the evening and returned it to us after we'd returned it in Ponta Delgada. Excellent communication with the owner, and the scooters were excellent. All in all, definitely worth 5 stars.

Aug. 20, 2025

Had a great experience with this company. Reserved a scooter the day of and within an hour of booking I was all sorted out and on the road! My scooter was comfortable, clean, and smooth, and I really couldn't have asked for a better experience with a rental company.

The owner was friendly and provided a very good service. We met her at the begging and end. She gave us her Whatsapp to communicate. She also offered us something to drink being the owner of a bar. Very positive experience.

Exceptional care and expresso from Patricia. Best regards!

Super easy, the guys were very helpful and really nice. 100% will come back if ever in Sao Miguel!

Everything was perfect, a very serious company, I received my deposit within 24 hours.

July 17, 2025

One of the best scooter rentals I've ever used. The staff was amazing, they were really kind and supportive and made us feel completely comfortable. The shop is very nice and welcoming. The scooter we rented was great, everything worked perfectly, and we had an amazing time in the island thanks to it!

An amazing experience! The guide was super cool, professional, and really friendly throughout the ride. The route was fantastic, with stunning views and great thrills, whether on the quad or the buggy. Everything was well organized, and the equipment was in perfect condition. I 100% recommend it – an absolute must-do!

I highly highly recommend this place! Reasonable prices, and the scooter I got was excellent! Pedro was more than helpful he even gave me tips around the island based on the time I had! Also it is great that they have indoor parking which makes the process super easy!

I recently rented a scooter from these guys, and my experience was fantastic! The process was smooth, and the scooters were in excellent condition. Pedro was especially helpful; he went above and beyond to ensure I had everything I needed for a great ride. He provided useful tips on the best routes and made sure I felt comfortable with the scooter. I highly recommend this company for anyone looking to explore the area on two wheels!

We rented a scooter and they gave us a discount (35.99) since we rented it for multiple days. Very friendly staff and they even allowed us to park in their property when we went back into town for shopping. Highly recommend this place. FYI - Insurance only cover third party so don't crash the motorbike.

Jay

We rented the Benelli for a day. Everything worked perfectly. The motorcycle is practically new. And motorcycling in the Azores is fantastic. The motorcycle was even brought to Furnas and picked up again there - maximum comfort. Very friendly team and very fair pricing.

With traditional rental agencies, for example the one at the airport, you never know what to expect. Here, everything is clear. Take a video of the previous scratches, cracks or breakages and be clear with them and you will have no worries, they are not sneaky. On the other hand, if you break something, you pay and it is fair and honest. I rented a scooter to go almost all around the island and that is enough. There is no need to rent a car. The prices are the most competitive and on top of that they are very friendly and very professional. Thank you, it is reassuring to know that we can always trust this type of service... you are honest and fair! Obrigado!!!

Hiring a motorbike in Ponta Delgada

Still have questions? Chat with us now

Ponta Delgada is the capital of the Portuguese São Miguel Island and the capital of the Azores. The Azores are a range of nine volcanic islands deep in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. São Miguel is the largest island in this archipelago range and is the most populated as well.

There is an airport in the city, and that makes it a great place to commute from. The island was first inhabited around 1444, and Ponta Delgada was established around 1450 as a fishing village. There are many things to see and do along Ponta Delgada, such as Azores whale spotting and dolphin tours.

If you want to see some of the historical sites, it makes sense to travel about by hiring a motorcycle, or renting a scooter and weaving around some of the winding historical streets. Why not nip along to the Forte de São Brás a fortressdating back as far as 1522, or the Igreja do Santo Cristo of the spcialoity museum, the Museu Carlos Machado. You can also ride up to the Pico Carvão, which offers fantastic views, or go to the Gruta do Carvao cave system for something a little different.

If you want to head out of the city, then Vila Franca do Campo, a large municipal town, is just east along the coastal road around 24kms away. Or why not visit the Lagao Azul to the northwest. This lake boasts stunning scenes and a couple of fantastic traditional Portuguese restaurants such as the Restaurante Lagoa Azul.

Ponta Delgada has a great mix of modern, Renaissance, and natural wonders to keep you wanting more.

To book your motorbike/scooter/quad online all you need is a credit or debit card. When you pick the motorbike up, you'll need:

  • Passport or ID for the rental company to verify your identity.

For most motorbike hire companies, the age requirement is between 18 and 75 years old. Some of our bigger motorbikes have special age requirements, you can see if that's the case in the motorbike's reservation page.

Companies’ conditions vary. In the search results you will be able to see what kind of licence each motorbike requires. Usually a scooter requires B (car) or AM/A1. Anything bigger usually requires A2 or A.

Yes. The vast majority of our rentals include basic insurance, local taxes and any road fees. You have the option to add 'extras' (ie. One-Way rental, GPS, GoPro, etc) but we'll clearly list any additional costs involved before you book your motorbike/scooter.

In most occasions the maximum you might be charged is the security deposit. If you included Premium Insurance with your booking, then your security deposit will be protected. When you pickup up your rental, our local rental partner will explain the procedure to follow and emergency contact details in the event of an accident - your safety always comes first.
