Bike Rentals in Laos

We make it easy for you to ride Laos on your own terms. We are the only Full Service Agency renting motorcycles in Vientiane and offer country wide destinations for pick up and return.  We are also the only company offering custom written Ride Guides for your time in Laos.  Our guides are created in detail and list not only the route but places of interest, accommodation suggestions, locations to eat/drink and much more.  A sample is at the bottom of the page.  Have a look!

When you rent a bike from us, we make sure that you get not only a quality machine but help you with your time in the country.  Pre-arrival consultation, itinerary guidance, advice on accommodation, sights and local events make the most of your time whether it be 3 or 30 days.  We try to make it so all you have to do is - Ride It!

Have a GPS?  We offer custom track and POI files for your unit at reasonable rates!

In most cases, we'll deliver the bike to your hotel in Vientiane - how easy is that?

We additionally offer inexpensive gear rental, hotel bookings based on a flexible schedule, road assistance, secure online payment, pick up and drop off of the bike in various locations and the confidence to know you have someone in Vientiane you can talk to if you need advice or support.

Contact  us for a quotation on your trip, we can also provide hotel bookings and guides.  We have an FAQ page set up for you to review.

Jim
 
Just wanted to thank you again for the excellent service you provided to us on our most recent trip. The bikes were A1 and your local knowledge and tips once again made the journey and the off bike activities (beerlao and the local food) so much more enjoyable.
 
We are already planning to come over again next year and bring another couple of riders so look forward to catching up again.
 
Cheers
Simon

Hi Jim,

 

Ingrid and I just wanted to let you know that we were very satisfied with the huge amount of good tips and the superb service you offered us while we were in Laos last month.

 

Laos is a great country to discover by motorbike - especially if that motorbike is well maintained ;-) We had a wonderful time and definitely hope to come back once.

 

Many, many thanks for both your and your wife's support!

 

Best regards,

 

Ingrid & Stijn

 

PS Back to work now :-(

Dear Quynh and Jim,


The trip was awesome and just kept getting better. The kit and the bikes were excellent and we had no technical problems at all.

 

We met another biker at a gas station who had rented his bike from another firm and he was complaining about everything!

 

We are already thinking about another trip, and if we go we will use remote Asia.

 

Thanks again,

 

Andrew

Jimoi -

Without your help planning, we'd have run a very different tour and not seen all the places you sent us to.  The off road bits were pretty tough but the bikes powered thru. The tips you gave were so good and while we didn't follow all your advice, we will when we come back next year. 

Thanks for everything and we're looking forward to the next ride in Laos!

Dan and Mick

Hi Jim,

Just dropped the bikes in Pakse,

Had an absolute brilliant time!

The bikes were perfect and after overhearing a fellow Aussie rider in a restaurant here in pakse saying he had been on the bikes for 4 days and had been rained on,for all of them.we had perfect weather for the entire trip,we had a 30 min rain event on the BOLV

plateau, and that was it.we will miss the bikes for the rest of our travels.I want to thank you for the prompt service and help on this trip,I will highly recommend your company to all I will tell about my trip.will definitely be working on the north  trip next year as soon as I get home

Cheers Andy,Simon,Steve








Honda Baja 250cc
Honda Baja 250 Laos Motorcycle Rental
The Honda Baja is fairly similar to the XR above but has a larger fuel tank and dual headlamp.  The bike can be ridden 2 up with light luggage but is not as comfortable for rider and pillion as the Honda FTR.  The Baja can go anywhere in Laos - it's a very strong bike with plenty of pull to get you out of the mud or down the main roads. All bikes have a 6 speed gear box, weigh about 120 kilos, have a rear rack for bag tie down, adjustable suspension (914 mm seat height), air cooled and electric start.
Honda Baja Specs

Rates: $31.00 - $34.00 per day
                                                              Rates will vary due to length and season
