    Had a great time in the slingshot driving around Newport and 12 mile drive on a sunny day

    You know you're there when you see this colorful lineup

    It's not every day you can roll up in your Lightning McQueen on the same road as cars. I'm so grateful Scooter World offers this! Coming into this, I was skeptical by the rude service comments online, but can safely wave it off as the workers there were nothing but professional and kind. One even suggested an amazing free beach spot for us to check out. It was $55 for your first hour on a Scoot Coupe, with the driver required to wear sunglasses. If you didn't have, they offer $2 sunglasses to keep. Helmets were free to use. A driver license is required for the driver. I thought driving the vehicle would feel like a toy car with an actual wheel and a pedal, but instead, it was more like a motorcycle. You crank the handle to go. The feeling of cruising fast alongside the waterside is unmatched. We followed Ocean Drive, and was able to park, get out, and take in the coast views. If you needed to reverse, someone has to get up and start pushing the car while you turn your wheel. Tons of other people were renting at Scooter World too, so it was fun to beep at each other as a mutual greeting! You return your equipment next door to where you order from. I 100% recommend doing this if you were to come to Newport. Nothing like touring a new state in a unique way! Keep at it, Scooter World!

    I'm so glad I didn't pay attention to any of the negative reviews. We walked right up, filled out a little paperwork, handed my card as a hold in case I ran of with their scout coupe, and walked out to jump in our ride. The girl at the counter was sweet and personable. She added a few minutes to our time to allow for getting my driving tutorial. What a fun way to tour Newport. We had plenty of time to ride around and sightsee. I set my timer to let us know when to head back as not to be charged any extra time. We got back with a few minutes to spare and there were people waiting for coupes to be returned so earlier is definitely better. We rented around 1. The return process was seamless. Again customer service was great and efficient. No hidden or extra fees! It was $55 as stated plus tax. If you are thinking about this which I assume you are since you are checking review..... do it! It's so much fun and well with the cost!

    Self guided mansion tour!

    finished a rental with George at Scooter World! We just got off a Princess Cruise with no expectations. We came across scooter world and did a self guided tour of the mansions! It was at our own pace and much better than the slow trolley! I would highly recommend scooter world to help you zip around Newport at your own pace. Can't wait to do it again! Ps. George is a local and very knowledgeable of the rich history of Newport RI!

    I've been to Scooter World twice, now. My first time was 5 years ago when we rented one of the mini coupe cars. This time around was for the Polaris Slingshot. Yesterday afternoon, my fiancé and I went to Scooter World to rent the slingshot at around 4:30pm. I had previously called to make a reservation for 7pm and the lady who answered told me that I didn't need a reservation for that time. We ended up having extra time and showed up earlier than when I called for. When we stepped into the shop, we were shouted at "sorry! We're closed" by a bunch of teenagers just hanging out in the shop. I looked at them and asked, "closed? It says you close at 9." They gave me excuses that they close at 7 and they need the cars back at 6. Again, I looked at my watch and questioned this. I only wanted an hour and that was plenty of time. Then they gave me the excuse that it's because of weather. That's fine but it stopped raining about an hour before I arrived. I was pretty upset but there's no use in arguing with teenagers who clearly don't want to be there. Well, I really wanted to drive the slingshot so I arrived first thing this morning and was helped by the owner. I've met him before and he's still pretty unfriendly. He was complaining to an employee about another employee being late. It just wasn't a welcoming environment at all. However, there was one guy working that helped us get in the Slingshot and helped us checkout at the end. He was excellent and I wish I got his name! The business is rough. Everyone (except the one employee) seems pretty over it. The cars are fun and a great way to explore Newport but man, this business needs some customer service help...including the owner.

    Our intentions originally were to rent motor cycles, but only two of us were experienced motor bike riders. Therefore we chose the two seated scooter to rent so we can wander about the streets and cliffs of Newport Rhode Island. The staff was friendly and very patient while providing us operating instructions for the scooters. We wandered toward the Mansions and the Cliffs without any problems maneuvering the scooters. The scooters were actually quite fast, but not faster than the local speed limit. Renting the scooters was a perfect way to see the sights of Newport. Scooter World offers a variety of vehicles to rent ranging from bicycles to the three wheeled scooter, the ultra-popular Scoot coupe and motor cycles.

    Went to the location behind the Red Parrot. Alex was very helpful and thorough in explaining the rules and how to actually operate the three wheel coupe. The company offers other rentals like scooters and bicycles. Had a great time driving around town. Returning the vehicle was quick. Highly recommend!

    Fun!!

    LOVES IT!!! We rented the scoop for an hour based on these wonderful yelp reviews. We wanted the sling but you have to reserve but there were plenty of the small ones. The Drive down ocean avenue and the views were amazing. Yes I admit while driving in the traffic it feels a little weird being in that little guy but it was soooo fun. What an adventure. Once you get off the streets your pretty much alone. So fun. 1 hour is good for the ride on ocean but if you want to explore a little more than maybe 2 hours you will need. Staff was all so nice and went over everything. Thank you. We will be back

    The best time you could have in Newport!! Scooter World is amazing and completely worth it!! We had a problem with our first scooter and called, we returned and they gladly gave us time back on our contract. Take the scooter along ocean drive and the views won't disappoint - truly great service and time!

    See all
