I rented several motorcycles from João recently and it was a great experience all the way through. The booking,... motorcycle selection, and the overall rental experience were great. The bikes were ready on-time and were in excellent condition. We received great advice from João on can’t-miss roads and areas to see in Portugal and Spain which fueled our exploration. I would absolutely rent again and will likely sign up for Morocco tour in the future.read more

Summary: I recently returned from an unforgettable 9-day motorbike tour in Morocco organized by MOTORENTOUR. I... couldn’t be more thrilled with the experience. From the striking landscapes to the seamless organization and comfortable accommodations, everything about this tour exceeded my expectations. Here’s a breakdown of what to expect and why I highly recommend this adventure to any avid motorcyclist.The Route: The tour led us through some of Morocco’s most iconic and diverse terrains, allowing us to experience the true beauty of the country. We started in Malaga Spain, crossed over to Morocco by ferry and rode through the Atlas Mountains, crossing dramatic passes, desert dunes, and green oases. We had a rest day in Marrakesh to enjoy the city and local culture. Highlights included the towering Tizi n’Tichka pass, the surreal rock formations in the Todra Gorge, and, of course, the vast Sahara Desert, where we spent a night under the stars. The route was well planned, mixing challenging stretches with scenic stops, giving us ample time to enjoy the views.Organization: MOTORENTOUR did an outstanding job with organization. From the moment we arrived, everything was taken care of, including ferry transfer to Morocco, briefings, and equipment checks. MOTORENTOUR ensured that all riders were well-prepared, providing a thorough orientation on safety and road rules. Joao was our tour guide, he was very knowledgeable about Morocco and Africa in general, sharing insights into each destination. Their meticulous attention to detail made the entire trip smooth and worry-free.Accommodations: The accommodations were a good mix of small hotels in the small villages and five star hotels in the bigger cities, and one night in a desert camp. Each place had its own unique charm and local flair. Rooms were comfortable, clean, and often had spectacular views, especially in mountain and desert locations. The desert camp was a special highlight, where we stayed in traditional tents and enjoyed a bonfire under the open sky. Meals at each stop included a delicious variety of Moroccan dishes. Breakfast and dinner were typically at the hotels.Motorbikes and Equipment: I rented a bike from MOTORENTOUR for the tour. The bikes provided were well-maintained and perfect for both mountain and desert terrains. The company offered a selection of models to suit different riding styles, and each bike came fully equipped for long-distance touring.Overall Experience: This 9-day tour is a must for any motorcycle enthusiast looking to experience Morocco in a way that’s both exhilarating and immersive. The combination of varied landscapes, rich cultural experiences, and the thrill of motorbiking made for an unforgettable adventure. Motorentour went above and beyond to ensure our journey was enjoyable, safe, and packed with highlights. I can’t recommend this tour enough—it’s the perfect adventure.read more

A massive thank you to JG from MOTORENTOUR. He made it so easy for me by providing an excellent 3-day route. My bike... rental was a last minute thing so I had little time for route planning. The route that JG provided was brilliant. If you ever visit Porto in Portugal and want to hire a motorbike, see MOTORENTOUR. JG was so helpful and responsive, all while running a tour in Morocco!! Lavio was terrific in Porto for the bike pickup and return too.JG also listened to what bikes I ride at home and made an excellent recommendation on what to hire from his large inventory. The Africa Twin 1100 was a lot of fun. It was a great experience, thanks again JG!!read more

Great, great, great!!!Very good communication prior booking. Useful information, tips and advices. All explained as... it should be.Very pro-rider approach, with enthusiasm and positive energy. They are very flexible, all set-up of the rent bike and delivery agreed with out any problems.I was the one unlucky bloke that drop rented bike 😭. Motorentour approached the issue with understanding, saking for my safety first! The damage was estimated on the sport when I returned the bike. We took the bike to Genuine Honda dealership and the quote was done while I wait. There was no fiddling with damage trying to pump up the quote. Obviously it hurt me😩, as the bike was new so the part prices were high...but at the end of the day I got one more extra story to share with friends 😉. I do recommend "premium insurance" it might save you some money 😊The bike was good: brake pads, tyres, chain and sprocket, etc all good as it should be. No technical issues.Highly recommend.I am happy to use them again, when I am next time in Portugal.read more

Great service from JG who drove down from Porto to Lisbon to drop the bike off and pick it up.

JG and the team have been outstanding. From the first point of contact to the final pick up (on time at at two... different locations) his comms and help / advice has been fantastic. This included fitting of appropriate tyres, and some very forward thinking spare parts (which we fortunately didn’t need) He is very knowledgable too so if you have any trip related questions he was able to advise re routes, weather and appropriate kit. I will recommend MOTORENTOUR and definitely hope to be back for another tour in the future.read more

I decided to use this rental after reading other reviews on google. My friend and I rented motorbikes from MOTORENTOUR ... for a week's trip around Portugal. I took the BMW 1250 GS and my friend the Honda Afrika Twin. The bikes were almost new with only 3,000 km on them. The bikes were clean and perfectly prepared with a complete pannier bag. João, the owner of the rental, explained very clearly the rules of the rental and the insurance conditions. He was also very helpful in explaining the handling of the motorcycles and also recommended the best routes we need to ride. Also the contact 30 days before the rental was very good and fast.Me and my friend rate MOTORENTOUR's service at the highest level, which is why I give it 5 stars.I will definitely use this rental company again on my next trip to Portugal.João, thank you very much to you and your colleague for your professional service.Paweł and Mateuszread more

I rent my bikes with João from MOTO RENTOUR for three years and want to keep renting for many more!Wonderful service,... simple, honest, available, flexible are some of the main qualities that hooked me in the first place. Do you need to deliver the bike on a Sunday? No problem, do you need an extra bag? No problem, do you need some advices or tips for your journey? No problem…just tell him what you need!João and MOTO RENTOUR are fully client satisfaction oriented and focused.Truly recommend!Fernandoread more

Exhilarating experience! Joao is a professional of the highest class, and takes care of every single detail to make the... trip the best possible experience. At the same time he is a warm and caring person, makes you feel like you are riding with your riding buddies of old. The routes, roads, hotels and timing are meticulously prepared and executed, everything is to the point. Also, Joao makes sure that the group is a priority so everybody has to fit-in and respect the group in every sense (a certain level of discipline and camaraderie is a must on the group rides). The riding tempo was spirited but safe, and the slower riders had another guide (Vasko) at the back making sure everyone can ride at their own comfort level. Every single detail is taken care of , you are at no time left to your own. This is my second time in Morocco with Motorentour and I will repeat the experience for the third time for sure. Highly recommended, and should be on every riders bucket list!read more

Our experience with MOTORENTOUR was absolutely ace! Joao went above and beyond to make our rental the best possible, no... words to describe how he made it easy for us with the collection and return of the bike, all on a short notice so short, it was less then 24 hours! If we would recommend his services?! 100%, cannot get better service anywhere and at a very competitive price.read more

I had such a great ride on the 3 Day North Portugal guided tour. Each day, the ride routes and conditions varied from... long sweeping open roads to fun and challenging twists and turns through spectacular hills and national parks. I chose a BMW 750 that was less than a year old and it rode perfectly. Theaccommodations were really comfortable and everything went smoothly. This is a very well planned, fun and organized tour that I plan to ride again on my next visit. Highly recommended.read more

JG was simply the *perfect* tour leader. His service from start to finish was just impeccable. During the tour he was... extremely knowledgeable, engaging, patient, flexible and funny! His route showed us some wonderful riding roads and scenery highlights of Morocco. Coffee/lunch/hotel stops were all well researched and excellent. JG challenged us, but never pushed us outside our capable limits. We always felt he was in full control of matters and looking out for our wellbeing and enjoyment. This really is the gold standard of tour guiding! Hire bikes were almost new, clean and faultless. I would not hesitate to use Motorentour again, HIGHLY recommended!!read more

This must be the gold standard of rental and tour services.Quick and easy going in Communication. Friendly, Open to,... and Understanding of Requests. All out Helpful. Knowledgeable in their Trade. Especially as an older Beginner Rider, I felt very welcomed not only to this Business but also to riding Motorbikes at large.The Tours led us to amazing places and along the beautiful landscapes and vistas of Portugal. It would be great if you could get the Tours through Google Maps (or a different App) as the GPS Units weren't really intuitive, but with two Persons, one navigating and one checking if we were close to the Tour, everything worked out well.You get the Tour Routes also via PDF with Notes and Highlights, which made it really comfortable to plan and discuss each Day's Trip.The Bikes looked and felt very well taken care of. We got them clean and fuelled. Everything was explained with as much detail as you needed.This was one of the nicest vacations I ever had thanks to this company. I will undoubtedly rent again. Muito Obrigado, João and Piero, for 1100 km of pure enjoyment. It was a pleasure doing business with you.read more
