What is included in the scooter rental price in Karon?

Price list updated 30 July 2026. Low season rates.

The area

Karon is defined by its length: 3 km of beach, with hotels spread along all of it. The sand is coarse quartz and squeaks underfoot, which is where the “singing beach” nickname comes from. Casuarina trees line the front, and the big roundabout with the fountain in the middle serves as the district's unofficial address system. Everything feels wide and open, and the pace is slower than in Patong up the coast.

Riding here

3 km sounds like nothing until you cross it at midday with beach kit and a child in tow. If your hotel sits at one end, the restaurant you were told about is usually at the other. Traffic moves more evenly than in Patong, junctions are further apart, and parking exists more or less everywhere — outside the shops, along the front, at each beach entrance. The riding asks nothing of you. The distance asks something every day.

Which bike suits

Honda PCX 160 fits the way Karon gets used: the same stretch of road, several times a day, often two-up. The seat is long, the suspension takes the speed humps without complaint, and there is room under it for towels and a dry bag instead of on your knees. It pulls away from the roundabout without having to be revved. Riding alone and staying on the beach road, you will not miss the extra engine — the Click 160 covers that day for less.

About the area

The area where a bike changes everything

Karon is all about space: a vast three-kilometre beach with "singing" quartz sand, a casuarina-lined promenade and the big roundabout with a fountain at the centre of town. Hotels are scattered along the whole shoreline — walking from "your" hotel to the far end of the beach takes half an hour.

A bike turns Karon into the perfect base: 5 minutes and you're in Kata, 10 — at the viewpoint overlooking three bays, 15 — in Patong via the scenic coastal winding road. In the evening — the local market by Karon Temple and the restaurants around the circle.

For getting around Karon a city scooter is enough, but if you're planning the viewpoints and Promthep Cape — take the ADV160 or XMAX: the roads south run through the hills.

Karon questions

FAQ

Do you deliver the bike to Karon?

Yes, we deliver to any hotel or villa in any part of Karon — we agree the time on Telegram or WhatsApp. Paperwork takes 5 minutes at the reception.

Which bike should I choose for Karon?

For the beachfront and Kata — Honda Click or PCX. For the winding road to Patong, the viewpoints and the south — Honda ADV160 or Yamaha XMAX with power to spare.

What is the deposit?

From 2,500 ฿ in cash. The amount is known upfront and is refunded when you return the bike. We never keep your passport as a deposit.

Do I need an international driving permit?

Yes. To ride a motorbike in Thailand you need an international driving permit with category A. Without it the fine at a police checkpoint is usually 500 ฿ to 1,000 ฿, and the insurance will not pay after an accident.

Do you keep my passport as a deposit?

No. We take a cash deposit of 2,500 ฿ to 5,000 ฿ only and never keep your passport — it stays with you for the whole rental.

How much is a scooter for a month in Karon?

From 3,500 ฿ for a Yamaha Fino 125 — that is 117 ฿ a day — up to 15,000 ฿ for a Yamaha XMAX 2026. A Honda ADV160 2026 for a month is 7,500 ฿, or 250 ฿ a day.

Routine servicing and a replacement scooter if something breaks are included in the monthly price — 0 ฿ extra.

From how many days does the rental get cheaper?

The price drops in five steps: 1–3 days, 3–6 days, 7–11 days, 12–17 days and 18–23 days. A Yamaha Fino 125 costs 250 ฿ a day on a short rental and 150 ฿ a day from 18 days.

The lowest daily rate in the fleet is the Yamaha Fino 125 from 18 days: 150 ฿ a day. The Yamaha Grand Filano 125 costs 250 ฿ a day for 18–23 days against 300 ฿ on the first three days.

Which scooter fits a small budget, and which one is the premium choice?

We work like a scooter supermarket: 10 models from 150 ฿ to 800 ฿ a day. The budget end is the Yamaha Grand Filano 125 from 150 ฿ a day and the Yamaha Fino 125 from 150 ฿ a day on a long rental.

The premium end is the Yamaha XMAX 2026 from 500 ฿ a day and the Honda ADV160 2026 from 300 ฿ a day on a long rental. There is a model for every wallet.

What should I know about riding in Thailand?

Thailand drives on the left and a helmet is mandatory for the rider and the passenger. Police checkpoints ask for the international driving permit: the fine without category A is 500 ฿ to 1,000 ฿.

In the rainy season the road is at its most slippery during the first 10 minutes of a downpour — slow down and keep more distance.

What happens if the scooter breaks down?

Message us and we bring a replacement on the same terms — 0 ฿ extra. Routine servicing is included in every monthly rental.
