Before you rent in Koh Samui
Bike rental in Koh Samui is common, but the island has hills, sand on roads, rain, tourist traffic, dogs, narrow lanes and police checkpoints. Visitors should check the basics before riding.
Correct licence
Make sure you have the correct motorcycle licence and IDP where required.
Helmet every time
Wear a helmet and avoid unnecessary risk on Koh Samui roads.
Check the bike
Photograph the bike before leaving and check brakes, tyres, lights and mirrors.
Stay protected
Insurance matters. Many travel insurance policies exclude motorbike accidents unless the rider has the correct licence, wears a helmet and follows local law.
Travel insurance
Check whether motorbike riding is included before you rent.
Medical cover
Hospital costs can be serious after a road accident.
Legal exclusions
Cover may fail if alcohol, no licence or unsafe riding is involved.
