Great scooter rental place that recently opened up in this popular area. It's a local shop that's…read morerun byv a young group of guys that are extremely friendly and hospitable! Their service is fast and quick! We walked in and were on our way on a scooter in 15 mins tops! The thing i liked about this place is that they have one advertised rate and that is exactly what you will get when you walk in. While you are renting, they don't try to upsell you on unnecessary extras. While you may find advertises renals at most other commercial places to be a few Euros less, they will charge you extra for insurance (which is mandatory) and helmets and add on extras so that by the time time you walk out, you've paid more than what was advertises. That is NOT the case here. The people that run the place are extremely accommodating and will even provide helpful suggestions of where to go in Porto based on what kind of activities you're in to. We rented a 50cc scooter which was small and not fast but plenty to get us around Porto. I initially wanted a 125 or 175cc for speed but i later found that Porto's streets are narrow and the surrounding areas are so close that you don't need a higher cc scooter. Keep in mind that most of Porto is a lot of hills so it's easier to balance a smaller scooter. If you lose control of a bigger one then you're not going to be able to recover in time on a steep incline. We rode around all day in Porto and even to Matosinhas and back and only had to refill 2 Euros worth of gas before returning it the next day! The only downside of the 50cc is that they're not allowed on the motorways or the new bridges. However, we were able to cross the river from the old bridge which is just a 2 minute ride from this place. I highly recommend this place to anyone that is looking to rent scooters from an easy going a d tourist friendly outfit. You will not be disappointed the least bit! Protip: check the weather to make sure there is no rain in the forecast before you rent!

Not that big of a deal but definitely not flexible there.

I found this place a month before I left for my camino by bike to Santiago and when I finally made…read moreit to the place I asked so many questions about the bike and the trip as I was doing this alone. They were very helpful and the bike they rented to me was a workhorse, exactly what I needed. It was not very heavy but it did the job. All their tips and suggestions were spot on. Returning the bike in Santiago was a breeze too. The price was very reasonable and they adjusted when I told them I didn't need the bike the whole ten days that I first reserved it for.

Highly recommend this bike rental company!

They're warm and friendly but only the wife speaks English so she tends to handle the rentals with tourists. We had reserved in advance online which was easy to do but we also went during the weekday so it was quiet. Helmets and a heavy bike chain are provided but a phone holder is extra. Since it was a new feature, they gave it to us for free this time! Note that you'll need a piece of ID to rent the bikes and they'll keep it for the duration of your ride. Don't forget to pick it up at the end! The e-bike has 4 modes, eco, touring, sport and turbo. It was my first time riding an e-bike and it was super easy! We did a 2hr ride and between eco and touring mode, the battery was only down by 10%. For avid cyclists, you'll find bike routes easily on Strava or Komoot. Just a note that the Strava app takes a lot of battery power from your phone so have some way to charge it back up! Alternatively, you can send a map to your Google maps account which is much more battery friendly. The route we took passes by the docks where you'll see the more industrial side of Aveiro. You'll have the smell of the sea, you'll pass by canneries, lots of docked rusty fishing boats, gravel roads, and riding alongside and crossing some highways. At the end of the ride, you'll be rewarded with a beach view. It's not a beginner's ride so I would recommend going on the nature trail instead for better scenery and an easier more pleasant ride. Returning the bikes was super easy.
