Motorcycle & Scooter rentals in Kigali City

It's the best motorcycle rental company you can trust for city tours or long routes around Rwanda. I highly recommend the rental shop.

I want to thank the team at the rental shop, they were fantastic. They were easy to contact and responsive to any questions and were full of good advice about places to see and routes to ride. The motorbike was brilliant and it took me all over Rwanda without any problems. I'll definitely be back to see more of this beautiful country on two wheels.

We did a two week self guided motorbike tour and rented the motorcycles from the rental shop. The staff are fantastic people, they gave us a great itinerary and route recommendations suited to our driving ability. They were always reachable during our travels. The motorbikes are not quite up to european standards, but perfectly suitable for the rough backroads of East Africa and we did not have any major issues with them even though we drove them hard. I can highly recommend renting motorbikes here.

I rented a Haojue TR 150 for 7 days and it was in excellent condition. Zero problems the entire trip. I travelled around Rwanda and parts of Uganda across varied terrain and the motorbike handled everything perfectly. The rental shop was very professional and reliable, right from my online booking, even before reaching Kigali. Highly recommended.

I rented a 125cc scooter from the rental shop and the whole experience was incredibly smooth from start to finish. From the first day I arrived, everything felt easy and well organized. The deposit was comfortable and could be done via Revolut, which I really appreciated. The staff was super friendly, took time to explain everything, provided a helmet, and made sure I felt confident before heading off. The contract process was simple and straightforward, and shortly after I was on the road with a scooter that had a full tank, all the necessary papers, and even a phone holder so I could use maps while driving. The scooter itself was in great condition and felt very smooth to ride, exactly what I was looking for. During my 8 day round trip through Rwanda, outside of Kigali, I covered a good amount of kilometers and had the chance to see almost the whole country. The scooter never let me down at any point and performed reliably throughout the entire journey. I had almost no issues during the rental. On the last day there was a minor incident due to the crazy driving style of some locals, but the rental shop was immediately there to help and supported me through the situation until I returned the scooter. I am very sorry again for the inconvenience caused. Even in that situation, everything that was in the rental shop's hands was handled in a super professional and calm way. The return process was also very flexible and comfortable, which made the whole experience even better. Overall, I was extremely happy with this rental and would definitely rent a scooter with them again. 10 out of 10.

Great place and very professional! Rented a scooter in perfect condition for a day. When I got into the rain, the boss gave me a rain jacket and made me a tea. Highly recommended for a ride into the Rwandan countryside!

Thanks to Kigali Motorbike Rental Ltd for providing great service! I particularly appreciate their responsiveness and clear communication. Their motorbikes are well maintained - I've been riding their 200cc offroad motorbike on several occasion in the past 2 years, perfectly adapted to Rwandan dirt roads!

Rented a motorbike for a selfdrive trip through Rwanda from the rental shop. Fair price, good working and maintained motorcycles that will get you pretty much anywhere (if your skills are good enough), and the staff will respond quickly basically 24 hours a day. Renting a motorbike with the rental shop is definately a great way to spend your time in Rwanda!

Great place to rent motorcycles if you want to tour Rwanda and the neighboring countries. They offer guided tours as well. Thanks for giving me the opportunity to tour Rwanda and Uganda on a motorbike.

The guide is an awesome, super respectful and smart guide who put together the perfect motorcycle trip through routes that show the best of Africa's small towns and national parks, we got to see lions, rhinos, elephants, leopards, and so many more animals. The places we stayed at were amazing, with views of landscapes I never imagined seeing in Africa. The motorbikes look kinda small haha, but they're actually perfect for this kind of adventure, we finished the whole trip without a single problem. I'm beyond thankful for this one of a kind experience, and I'd totally do it again, no doubt. Every little detail was taken care of, and our guide was always ready to help with anything that came up. He also does 4x4 truck tours, so maybe next time I'll do that one with my family. Thanks a lot!!!!

The operator runs an organized, friendly and welcoming business. He was invaluable in helping me plan my solo motorbike tour of Rwanda & Uganda and the little 200cc motocross motorbike I rented never broke down despite some very rough roads. I would definitely use his services again!

June 16, 2025

excellent experience, the motorbike (BMW 650 GS) was impeccable, serviced, new brakes, tires in very good condition large and very useful side panniers motorbike perfectly suited to the roads and tracks of Rwanda use 8 days with 1 passenger without any problem

June 12, 2025

It was a very good experience. The bike was in very good condition, serviced, with new brakes. It's the right size for touring Rwanda and for the sections of dirt road you have to take to explore all the regions. No mechanical problems, the side panniers were large and very useful.

Absolutely great rental place! I rented a light scooter to cruise through Rwanda, and Kigali Motorbike Rental provided excellent service. They are responsive, flexible, and communicative, offering great travel advice tailored to your needs. The owner, Dominik, is an overall sociable and knowledgeable guy. And not to forget—the motorbikes are fantastic. Definitely recommended!

The very best way to see Kigali is on the back of a motorbike. The best way to get a motorbike is this company. Friendly, efficient, and accommodating. The couple that manage this business are lovely and trustworthy. Some of the nicest people in Rwanda! I can't wait to come back and rent another motorbike.

I recently had the pleasure of renting a motorcycle from Kigali Motorcycle Rental, and I can confidently say it was one of the best experiences I've had! The selection of motorcycles available was nice, catering to various preferences and riding styles. Dealing with the owner, Dominik, was a breeze. He was always available to answer any questions I had, offering invaluable advice on routes and must-visit destinations. His passion for motorcycling and knowledge of the area really enhanced my adventure. Dominik's flexibility regarding the return of the motorcycle was also a major plus – it made the experience even more convenient and stress-free. Riding through Rwanda was an absolute dream. The country’s stunning landscapes, charming hills, and winding roads make it an incredible destination for touring on two wheels. Every direction I took revealed amazing views and splendid routes that made the journey unforgettable. I wholeheartedly recommend Kigali Motorcycle Rental to anyone who knows how to ride a motorcycle or scooter. You won't just rent a bike; you'll embark on an adventure filled with breathtaking scenery. If you have the chance, don’t miss the opportunity to explore Rwanda on two wheels – it’s an experience you won’t regret!

Rented a light 150cc motorbike for 2 weeks to travel around Burundi and Rwanda. Everything done last minute via WhatsApp. Excellent service and very responsive. Would rent with them again for sure.

Jan. 12, 2025

We did the 10 day Rwanda and Uganda motorbike tour with Vincent. We had the absolute best time! Everything was well planned and amazing, with room for flexibility if we needed it. Would highly recommend!

Jan. 3, 2025

Up with the best trips of my life. Vincent made everything easy and no hassle. For any long term bikers or beginners like us this trip was unfortunately. From his knowledge of everywhere we went to help with all things motorbike education. We left this tour ready to take on anything. Already talking about doing another trip in Rwanda. Thank you Vincent

Jan. 2, 2025

Great guide, great motorbikes, great trips - true local spirit and kindness all around. Would recommend as the motorbike tour guide for any driving experience across Rwanda and nearby countries.

Dec. 30, 2024

Everything worked out perfectly fine - Scooter was in good condition and I got some advice on the most scenic routes around Kigali. Rental processes are smooth and well-oiled. I got my safety deposit back within 48 hours. Will come back when in Kigali and rent again.

Nov. 4, 2024

Wow, Vincent who owns the motorcycle rental business is one of the nicest and kindest people I have ever met and went out of his way to make sure our tour was unforgettable with so many brilliant recommendations. I can’t thank you enough and we are already planning our next trip back. Thank you Vincent and team for an amazing, safe and beautiful experience, we will be back for sure. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

I did a tour in Rwanda for 2 days and in Uganda for 3 days and it was awsome. Vincent and Ghyslin are to very guide to show you some things yu don't see with "classic tourism", very nice off-road with very good motorbikes, you can trust the motorbikes even 200cc is very enought (I drive a 750cc in France and here I never feel I would need more then the 200cc) you can cross any off-road, even river with those motorbike ! They are very kind and helpful ! I am very thanksful for all the trip I did ! I will come back for sure !

Oct. 15, 2024

Best service you can get, Dominik and his team will help you if needed, support you with travel ideas and they have a really fair price, even if you crash the motorbike as I did 🙈 I will use their service whenever I'm in Rwanda again. Thank you for this great experience 🙏

I did six days solo in Rwanda and rented a 250cc motorbike through Motorbiking Rwanda. Good price, motorbike worked good the whole trip on and off road. This motorbike was perfect. Glad I didn't rent anything bigger because you rarely need the extra power. The shop where you pick up the motorbike is a house in a neighborhood. A little unconventional but everything worked out fine for me. They even had riding gear to borrow.

Sept. 17, 2024

Good choice. Motorbike in perfect condition. Good support of Domenic. Recommended. Made a trip around lake Victoria. A good chance to see a lot of nature and its animals

Sept. 13, 2024

I have had a great motorcycle tour in Rwanda around lake Kivu with Vincent. It was a great riding experience. Recommended to you all!

July 31, 2024

Excellent experience. Hired a motorbike on 2 occasions within a week. Both very well maintained and everything worked. Dominik and his staff all very helpful and professional. I can highly recommend the 650GS for a trip in Rwanda - very enjoyable on sealed and dirt roads. The Hawk is good fun too and also a rewarding experience. Importantly, I would also trust these guys at Kigali Motorbike Rentals to help if you got stuck somewhere.

July 19, 2024

If anyone ever wants to hire a motorbike and do a bit of an adventure in Kigali then this is your place!!!! I excellent motorbikes, super prices and the owner is just an all round nice guy!!! Very personable, doesn’t make you feel like you’re dealing with a business but more with a friend. They were also very flexible with me as I needed to return a motorbike out of hours and on an earlier date and nothing was a problem. I’ll for sure use them again

July 18, 2024

Great service by Vincent and his team. Very well kitted motorbike (including a mount for a cellphone which was super handy for navigation). Vincent was quick to respond on whatsapp if we had any questions. This was a great way to explore Rwanda!

July 16, 2024

Recommended! Rented motorbike for a day to Gisenyi Congo border and back. The Bajaj boxer motorbike was in good condition with mobile holder for navigation. For riders: I followed the route Kigali- Ruhengeri-Gisenyi- Mubanza - Mushubati -Kigali, 400Km stretch in 24 hours. There is construction going on for 10km between Mubanza and Mushubati(as on June 2024) where you can cover in 30-40 Kmph. Except that, the road is perfect and guarded by policemen 24*7. There are cameras every 2 Km with limits 60 Kmph and 80 Kmph. I could cover Lake Kivu, Congo border , beautiful mountain villages, tea gardens, Gishwati national park on the way. You can also take lakeside Congo Nile trail from Rubavu to  Rushel Kivu resort, but it's off-road . Happy traveling!

5 stars, brilliant experience hiring a motorbike with this company in Rwanda. I have had an excellent experience.

June 10, 2024

Fantastic service from this motorbike rental company. I hired a 150cc Boxer and rode around Rwanda for over a week. The rates are good, the motorbike was great and Dominik was very helpful. I'm planning to do this again but take a longer trip!

May 5, 2024

I stayed in Kigali for some months and rent various scooters from Dominik. All of them were in perfect condition. Dominik was always very supportive if there was the slightest problem. So I highly recommend this great scooter rental!
