Scooter- formed in 1993 are a three piece band from Hamburg in Germany. They describe themselves as a 'techno hard dance' musical style.
The excitable boys from Hamburg have had a successful musical career, comprising of impressively selling over 30 million records and over 80 gold and platinum awards. Subsequently, the band are considered the most successful German single-record act with 23 top ten hits.
In 1989, the band, formerly called 'Celebrate the Nun', released their first album, titled, "Meanwhile". It was very successful and one of their singles, named, "Will You Be There" excitably reached number one in 1990 the Billboard Dance/Club play.After various member departures 'Scooter' formed in 1993 and they released their debut single, titled, "Vallée De Larmes" which translates to 'Valley of Tears'. Considering the mix of members and band name change, the release was successful and reached an exciting number eight on the German official dance chart.
Presently, Scooter is comprised of three members; lead man H.P. Baxxter, Phil Speiser and Michael Simon.
Scooter retain a unique techno and dance style, which manly features fast tempos and happy melodies, however they have also successfully experimented with various styles of musical genres including hip hop, hard rock, hard style and jump style dance sub genres. Leadman H.P. Baxxter raps frequently in Scooter's songs, whilst also using artificially pitched voices.
Live reviews
Well, what can I say about Scooter? To start with they are one of the most successful techno groups ever, with record sales eclipsing 30 million and to date have over 80 gold and platinum awards t their name. This along with having 23 Top Ten hits means they are the most successful German act.
I expected a high energy, larger than life performance when I went to see them in London in 2012, and did they disappoint? Not at all! It was an incredible concert, they got the places rocking and all in all was a cracking night! From them walking on stage and H.P Baxter announcing “Hello, it’s good to be back’ all the way till their encore of ‘Fire’ and ‘David Doesn’t Eat’ , the performance was of the highest level. They clearly love what they do and seem to enjoy the night as much as myself in the audience. With a their trademark combination of fast, energetic beats, great hooks and catchy melodies they got everyone singing along and dancing. Actually the word ‘dancing’ doesn’t do it justice! The crowd was wild, they simple just didn’t stop raving!Scooter managed to play most their big hits including ‘Hyper Hyper, Move Your Arse’ ‘The ‘Only One’ and The Leading Horse’ as well as number of others.
A superb concert for any Techno fans! If they make it back to the U.K make sure you get a ticket!
Report as inappropriate
Perhaps Germany's most well known and most appreciated export to the dance circuit, Scooter have enjoyed a largely successful career and continue to take a live show compiled of their greatest hits to the baying masses. With a huge discography spanning three decades, the group has had to consolidate the music into a snappy set yet due to the pace they have chance to play a lot of the fan favourites.
The audience is responsive throughout to frontman H.P. Baxxter as he encourages them to jump higher and dance faster to the opening beats of the aptly chosen 'Hello! (Good to Be Back)'. The energy does not drop all evening as the whole outfit onstage perform with such vigour and enthusiasm, the crowd clearly feels obliged to join in. There is no provocation needed though during the familiar 'Jumping All Over The World' and 'Nessaja' which has the crowd dancing as one single unit.
Baxter continues to bring the party vibes and really does his duties as a frontman, through the lights you can see him dancing and moving continuously until the final pulsating beat of 'Ramp! (The Logical Song)'. The band leaves having given the audience a lesson in classic trance.
What a show - truly truly fantastic!
The staging was superb
The music was fantastic
The meet & greet as part of the VIP Package was just great

Motorcycling in the Netherlands- Everything you need to know
Planning to go touring in Holland with a motorbike? There are some essential things you need to know before your trip, including important paperwork and what kit to bring with you. Here’s everything you need to know about motorcycling in the Netherlands.
Don’t forget to grab your FREE motorcycle maintenance checklist below to help you get ready for your trip.
*We work hard to make this the best motorcycle touring & tips website possible. The website is supported by our readers, so if you buy through links on this site we may earn a commission- at no extra cost to you. All opinions remain our own . Ride safe!
Jump Ahead to...
Motorcycling in Holland- or is it the Netherlands??
Ok, let’s start with the obvious- what’s the difference between calling it ‘Holland’ or calling it ‘the Netherlands’?
It’s a little bit like the difference between the UK and GB- ‘Holland’ only refers to part of the country (and a small part at that), whereas ‘the Netherlands’ refers to the entire Kingdom (yep, it still is Kingdom of the Netherlands)
So, if you’re planning a trip around the country, you’ll need to say ‘the Netherlands’. Having said that, many people (including us at times!) still incorrectly refer to it as Holland, so I’ll use the terms interchangeably throughout this post.
Motorcycling in the Netherlands- why you should go!
The Netherlands are known for several things- canals, clogs, tulips, windmills and being flat. Oh, and you’ve probably heard of Amsterdam, especially the red light district. If you follow the news, you’ll definitely have heard of the Hague.
But there’s a lot more to the country than that- it’s full of beautiful countryside, ridiculously pretty towns, delicious food and a lot of history. Not every road is by a dyke or windmill- there are also forests and, although the country is flat, there are a few sweeping roads with great corners which make them fun to ride.
This is also the place to bring your bicycles if you’re touring the Netherlands with a motorhome or campervan – most of the country is perfect for enjoying on 2 wheels.
I have Dutch god-parents, so I grew up visiting the country and exploring it on road trips with my family. I’ll be honest, many of my memories of the country involve Poffertjes (small Dutch pancakes served warm with butter and icing sugar) and Kibberling- we’ll get to those shortly!
It’s also not a big country and it’s easy to see a lot in a week, especially if you’re travelling by motorcycle.
When to go motorbike touring in the Netherlands
The Netherlands has a climate very similar to the UK- it’s on roughly the same latitude as Norwich or Wales. The best time to plan a motorcycle trip is from Spring (mid-April) to Autumn (probably around mid-October), but rain can happen at any time.
If you want to see the tulips, go between mid-March and mid-May (obviously, exact times vary), but this time is also very popular with tourists.
On the 27 April, there is a National holiday called King’s Day. Expect a LOT of orange clothing, orange hair and events happening all over the country. The Dutch Royal Family are known for making surprise visits to unexpected places, so keep your eyes peeled! (Although, be honest, would you recognise them??)
July and August are the busiest months for tourists and there can be big queues for the peak attractions, so avoid those if you can. Having said that, it’s the best time to enjoy the beautiful sandy beaches along the north coast. There’s a party on ‘Flag Day’ (when the first herring are brought in). There’s also the North Sea Regatta, Holland’s biggest sailboat race, and the Scheveningen International Fireworks Festival, held during August, which is well worth a visit.
During Autumn, the weather is perfect for road trips, without having to fight through the worst of the tourists. Make time to visit the Nijmegen Kunstnacht art festival- a huge gathering of artists of all varieties.
In the winter, there’s a lot more rainfall and it can be cold, damp and dreary. Again, much like southern England, there are no mountains (although there are hills), so don’t expect much snow (although it does happen occasionally.)
But there are several light festivals which happen around the country, including the Amsterdam Light Festival (one of the largest in the world) and also Glow Eindhoven and Candle Night, Gouda. Also, many of the canals freeze in winter and it’s possible to ice-skate on them (but please only do this with permission in case the ice isn’t as thick as you thought!)
Motorcycle Holidays in the Netherlands – Where to go
Before we dive into planning your motorbiking tour of Holland, let’s look at some of the best places to visit.
Highlights of a Netherlands road trip include:
- Giethoorn – the village with no roads. Yes, I know that’s weird for a road trip destination, but it’s magical
- Keukenhof Gardens to see the tulips and hyacinths
- Volendam– one of our favourite villages in Holland
- Nijmegen- the oldest city in the Netherlands
- Amsterdam- but do NOT drive into the city!
- Madurodam– a model village of the Netherlands and well worth a stop
- Windmills in Kinderdjik
Of course, there are plenty of other places to explore too. Make sure you bring a motorcycle camera or helmet cam – the scenery is spectacular.
Planning a riding route from UK to Netherlands
So, how do you get to the Netherlands from the UK with a motorcycle?
Using the Eurotunnel
By far the easiest way is the Eurotunnel. Normally, I’m all about the pros and cons of ferry vs tunnel, but in this instance, the tunnel is the best choice UNLESS you’re coming from up north. There is also a ferry from Dover to Calais if you’re unable to use the tunnel, but it takes longer to cross.
Once you’re across to France, you can drive from Calais, through Belgium and to the Netherlands is just 3 hours (it’s about 280km).
Harwich to Holland Ferry
There is also a ferry which goes directly to the Hook of Holland (which I think is where a lot of the name confusion comes from!) from Harwich, with Stena Line. You can take your motorcycle (or vehicle with trailer if you’re towing your motorbike ) on board and it takes about 7 hours.
If you’re travelling with a dog or cat, there are kennels on board you can book them into, but they can’t come into your cabin.
Hull to Rotterdam Ferry
For anyone in Scotland of the North of England, there is also a ferry from Hull to Rotterdam with P & O Ferries. This takes about 12 hours and again has cabins and pet kennels onboard.
There are no border controls if arriving into the Netherlands by road- you just ride straight in!
Motorcycle Hire in Holland
If you don’t have your own bike, or don’t want to take it, you can easily fly into the Netherlands and hire one. Just make sure to ask how to get from the airport to the rental agency- not all of them are at the airport itself and you might need to book a taxi.
To rent a motorcycle in the Netherlands most places will expect you to be:
- 21 to 25 years, depending on the company’s rental policy and have a valid driving licence
- Riders of motorcycles up to 125cc must be aged 18 or over.
- 16 is the legal minimum age to ride a scooter or moped (‘bromfiets’) under 125cc.
- Show identification (identity card for EU citizens or a valid passport for other nationalities)
Make sure you have proof that you can take the vehicle across a border if that’s what you’re planning to do.
Don’t forget, it is YOUR responsibility to make sure the vehicle has the required safety equipment. The on-the-spot fines apply to you as the rider, not the company. Check in advance with the company what kit they will provide with the vehicle and what you will need to bring. If you are solo motorcycle touring , remember you’ll need to carry everything yourself, including any motorcycle camping kit.
Take a list of what is legally required with you and check it off one by one as you are given the handover. Do not drive until you are happy you comply with the local laws.
You can expect to pay anywhere from 80€-180€/ day- based on model. Make sure you ask the right questions to know what’s included in your rental, such as:
- Mileage limits/ surcharge
- Kit included
- Luggage included
- Helmet rental available
- Pillion allowed
- Breakdown/ insurance cover
- Times & location of pick up/ drop off
- Documents needed
Motorcycling in the Netherlands- what gear do you need to carry?
Just like most of Europe , there are certain things you MUST carry with you whilst motorbike touring in the Netherlands.
Don’t forget, if you are driving through France to get to Holland, you’ll need all the kit France requires, plus anything extra required by the destination country.
Things you need to ride in the Netherlands- safety gear
These are the things you MUST have with you when you’re motorcycle touring in Holland.
- Wearing a helmet is mandatory for riders and pillions.
- Hi-vis reflective jackets – NOT mandatory but highly recommend if you break down at night
- You do not need headlight beam converters on a motorcycle in Europe unless your headlight points dramatically to the left.
- Country (UK) sticker attached to the back of bike on reg plates. (NOT the EU or GB sticker anymore!)
- If you wear glasses you MUST carry a spare pair
Lighting on motorcycle helmets and clothing in the Netherlands- what’s the law?
It was illegal to have additional lighting on both your clothing and motorcycle helmet when riding in the Netherlands. Turns out, this law was apparently reversed in 2021 and if you want to have a little lighting on your clothing/ helmet to make you more visible you can.
HOWEVER, your bike lights must still be clearly visible and understood, so don’t turn yourself into a Christmas tree!
NOTE – If buying a helmet, check for an ECE 22 E-Mark label to be road-legal on European roads. Read more.
Recommended bike accessories you MIGHT need when motorcycling in Holland
The following kit are things you might want to carry in your kit.
- Warning triangle
- First aid kit
- Spare bulbs – not compulsory, but useful
- Snacks and water- just in case!
Don’t forget to do your motorcycle maintenance checks before you leave- grab your FREE motorcycle maintenance checklist here
What documents do you need to road trip in the Netherlands?
If you’re riding in the Netherlands, you need to carry the following documents:
- Passport (or identity card)
- Driving licence (check it is in date!)
- Motorcycle Insurance documents- check you are covered for riding in Europe
- Breakdown cover
- Vehicle V5 logbook (which must show your correct address)
- Vehicle must be legally taxed and MOT’d
- International Driving Permit if required
- Personal travel insurance
Do I need an international driving permit to drive in Holland?
There is no requirement for UK licence holders to have an IDP in the Netherlands.
Motorcycling in Holland- where to stay overnight
In the Netherlands, there are several types of stopovers you can use.
Every campsite we’ve been to so far has been extremely clean and well-equipped. As we always
Like in the UK, campsites in the Netherlands vary in quality and price. Some campsites have great facilities, like swimming pools or a beach on a lake, watersports, play area, restaurants, fresh bread delivery, shop etc.
Others are more rustic and aren’t much more than an aire with an attendant. Expect the facilities at cheaper campsites to be much lower in hygiene standards than you might be used to!
They work much like in the UK- you arrive, check in (and will usually need to show a passport), are given or can select a pitch with or without electric (depending on what you booked) and that’s it.
Expect some campsites to keep your passport for the duration of your stay with them. This is often at the places where you haven’t paid in advance- I always try to pay in advance and keep my passport where I know it’s safe!
Dogs are normally always welcome on campsites, but there isn’t always a dog walk/ run where they are allowed off lead.
Because we rarely plan a route while touring, and therefore we never know where we’re going to be, we book campsites at the last minute- or just turn up. This doesn’t always work, (especially in August or between October-March when many campsites shut) but there always seems to be something around which works out.
Dutch motorcycle trips in the school holidays- or not?
If you’re travelling in the school holidays, you’ll want to book up the campsite (if you’re using one) asap- the best ones get booked up months in advance.
If you’re NOT travelling during the school holidays, you might want to consider getting an ACSI camping card– you’ll save a lot of money on campsite charges if you’re using a motorhome or campervan to tow your bikes.
Driving tips for Dutch motorcycle travels
Holland is generally not too bad for drivers (at least, not compared to motorcycling in Italy or Portugal!)
Some quick tips for driving or riding in the Netherlands:
- Holland drives on the right, like much of Europe
- You must give way to traffic coming from the right, unless signposted otherwise
- You might see a red and white inverted triangle sign which means you must give way on the crossing to other traffic.
- A square orange / white sign means you have right of way.
- Bicycles have right of way. Always. Even when they shouldn’t.
- A red round sign with a car means cars are prohibited, but motorcycle may enter. If it shows a bike and a car, you may not enter.
- When overtaking, move to the slow lane again.
- Helmets are compulsory
- Wearing earphones or buds is frowned upon (unclear if it’s illegal or not), but motorcycle intercoms/ bluetooth systems are not.
- Buses and trams have right of way.
- In-car speed camera detectors and motorcycle sat-nav systems warning of the presence of radars are illegal (whether they’re in use or not!)
- Using a mobile phone while driving is illegal, but you can use a hands-free unit
- Minor traffic offences can result in on-the-spot fines.
- UK driving licences are perfectly acceptable to use and you won’t need an IDP
- You must not use cycle lanes on anything bigger than a scooter – scooters with a maximum speed of 45kph must be driven on the street.
Speed limits in the Netherlands
Road safety is very important in the Netherlands and they take a dim view of speed- especially anyway near residential or school areas. The pace of life is slower and it’s common for many people to drive well below the speed limit.
- 130 km/h (80 mph) on motorways (Autosnelweg) (minimum speed 60km/h)
- 100km/h (62mph) on major roads and Expressways (Autoweg)
- 60-80km/h on regional roads (out of town)
- 50 km/h (31 mph) in built-up areas
As you enter a town (passing the yellow sign) the speed limit of 50kph applies (unless otherwise stated) until you are leaving the town and pass a yellow sign with a red line through it.
Filtering in Holland- is lane splitting legal?
Lane splitting is allowed in the Netherlands, but please stick to these rules:
- Use the left-most lane where possible.
- Do not go more than 10 km/h (6 mph) faster than cars/ other vehicles.
Riding in the Netherlands- what to do in the event of a road traffic accident
You should have a European Claim Form provided by your insurer before you leave. In the event of an accident, all parties complete and sign the form at the scene and then send a copy to your insurer for assessment. Don’t sign anything unless you are happy with what it says.
What to do at the scene:
- Stop your vehicle immediately but safely- out of the flow of traffic if possible.
- If a vehicle is blocking the road, use hazard lights and put the red warning triangle 30 metres from the scene to warn approaching traffic
- Name and address of all the people involved in the accident
- Vehicle registration numbers of all parties
- Insurance company details of all parties
- Take photos of damage using a camera, GoPro or phone
Yellow emergency telephones can be found every 2km along motorways.
Motorcycling in the Netherlands- security
We highly recommend paying extra attention to your motorbike security when travelling in Holland, as motorcycle thefts do happen, as does petty theft and pickpocketing, especially in the larger towns and cities. I know it’s not always possible, but try not to leave your bike unattended in an unsecured area and use a strong lock. If possible, park your bike in a garage overnight.
More useful things to know when motorcycling in Holland
Emergency Numbers: 112 will get you everything you need.
Language – Dutch, but English is widely spoken to an excellent standard (as are Flemish and German). The Dutch will love you trying to speak their language, but they are also aware that us mere English mortals can’t make those sounds!
Currency – Euro
Cards – most major credit and debit cards are accepted. American Express is only taken in large stores (not at tolls and often not at fuel stations)
Timezone – GMT+1 (or one hour ahead in BST)
Tipping – Service is usually included in a restaurant but do check. It’s common to tip other services, like taxi drivers
Shops – Unlike much of Europe, shops in the Netherlands don’t often close for lunch. Most are open every day from around 9 a.m. until 5.30 p.m. On Monday mornings, shops may not open until noon.
Many towns and cities have a shopping night where shops stay open until late, around 9 p.m. This is often on a Thursday. Many big supermarkets are open until 10pm.
Every Dutch city has its own rules for Sunday shopping hours. In most big cities, supermarkets are open until around 5.30 p.m on a Sunday.
Visa requirements : The Netherlands is in the Schengen zone, so you probably have a maximum of 90 days if you are not an EU resident.
Borders: There are no formal border crossings if you are driving into the Netherlands
Telephone country code : +31
Touring the Netherlands with a dog
The Netherlands is very pet-friendly. They are allowed almost everywhere, including public transport and in many bars, cafes and restaurants. They are not often allowed in museums.
Now that BREXIT has happened and the UK pet passport scheme is no longer valid, you will need to get an Animal Health Certificate before you leave the UK.
You will need to get a worming treatment done by a registered vet before you leave the Netherlands, or between 24 hours and 5 days before re-entering the UK.

She has owned several bikes, with her favourites being a Triumph Scrambler for long rides and her current speed demon- a ZX6R (both purple!) Whilst she loves to travel, her favourite thing is to help other bikers (both male and female) gain the confidence to have their own epic adventures. Ride safe!

The TOP 5 ultimate destinations for a scooter tour
It takes some getting used to, but it's really possible. Traveling by scooter to the gorillas in Uganda , through the hectic Saigon in Vietnam , the desert in the north of Kenya and past the volcanoes on Big Hawaii Island. Below are tips, tricks and a real TOP 5 of the most beautiful destinations for a round trip on a scooter!

It takes some getting used to; the thought of a scooter
It is rare that people come up with the idea of distant tour or part of it using a scooter. On the one hand, because many countries are not equipped for it at all. In Australië , USA (except Hawaii), whole Latin America en Japan I definitely wouldn't recommend it either. On the other hand, a scooter does not seem like a means of transport on which you make a round trip of several days.
Nothing could be further from the truth. In Southeast Asia renting a scooter is very easy and cheap. In Thailand many tourists rent a scooter on one of the islands. I can't begin with a worse example. Many foreigners do not know how a scooter works at all. You will see that after a few days, because they have a huge burn mark on their calf. A case against the exhaust pipe. Then there are those who use the scooter to visit the pub. It leads to many accidents. And what about Australians on Bali ?
In any case, a scooter is usually only used to get from A to B or to make a day trip.
In all my years on the scooter in faraway countries, I can't remember meeting fellow world travelers on a scooter. No shortage of motorcyclists, but scooterers no. Why not? Simply because we don't do it in our own country. A scooter is preferably a luxury means of transport in a city or village.
I remember taking a scooter trip in the summer of 2008 from Amsterdam to Belgium † Somewhere around eight o'clock I asked for directions from Sittard to Maastricht. "Where exactly are you going?" was the question. 'A Belgian village just across the border near Maastricht.' "Then you'd better find a hotel here and drive there at your leisure in the morning with that thing." The man pointed to my scooter. 'But I've already covered 200 kilometers. I left Amsterdam this morning at eight o'clock. So those few kilometers can still be added.' He didn't understand.
Why travel with a scooter?
A scooter has a number of advantages:
- No driver's license required (in most countries);
- Low fuel consumption (1 in 40);
- Easy to transport and lift;
- You stop much more often to rest for a while and therefore meet many surprised people;
- In case of bad luck you have to work;
- And you attract the necessary attention!
Tips for traveling with a scooter
- Note the presence of mountains (preferably a scooter with 90cc or more);
- When buying: go for a second-hand scooter with not too much mileage and not a new one (sale is always difficult at the end of the trip);
- A liter of petrol and half a liter of oil are always handy as a reserve;
- Wear gloves on long rides (no black fingers and no warts in the long run);
- Only bring necessary items. In the photo below you can see my backpack. It contains all my travel gear. My lightweight Macbook is by far the heaviest;
- Pay attention to the time and the weather; rain can cause a lot of delay.
Top five: most beautiful scooter to travel around
What are the ten most beautiful places in the world to take a scooter tour? In the last twenty years I have certainly traveled more than 100.000 kilometers on a scooter on my many travels. These are my five favorite countries and places to travel around on a scooter:
1. Madagascar
Without a doubt Madagascar the destination to make a round trip on a scooter. In the capital Antananarivo, excellent second-hand scooters (Yamaha Jogpro 90cc) are for sale for about $350. There are no scooters for rent.
So far I have been the only foreigner to travel the whole island on a scooter. I guarantee you thousands upon thousands of delirious Malagasy. It's like riding the Elfstedentocht.
There is also a lot to see and the main roads are in good condition. Repair of scooters is possible in almost every hamlet. Optionally, you can have the scooter transported on a minibus for a few Euros.
2. Big Hawaii Island, United States
It is true. On Big Hawaii you can rent a scooter to enjoy the race. The feeling of traveling around this beautiful island on a scooter is priceless. Watch out for lava overflowing, sudden downpours and traffic (Americans aren't used to scooters!). And don't wear flip flops when you drive to Hawaii Volcanoes Park. Chances are they will melt under the heat of the lava.

Even when my scooter malfunctioned XNUMX miles from Kona, a replacement scooter was on site within an hour.
Oh yeah one more tip: Hawaii law requires all motorcyclists (including scooters) to wear glasses. A helmet is not necessary. Just so you know…
Uganda is not really obvious as a place to travel through with a scooter. There are also hardly any scooters in the streets. Still, with a little effort you can buy a good second-hand scooter in Kampala. Buy a scooter of at least 90cc. After that, the whole of Uganda will be open to you.
In most National parks I was allowed in without any problems. Only in Kidepo National Park was a special rule. I was not allowed to go on safari on the scooter. I was allowed to travel to the rest camp on the scooter. That camp is located in the middle of the park, more than 20 kilometers from the entrance. Lions, buffaloes, elephants and giraffes have all seen me drive by… But mmm it wasn't a safari…
Also read: Top 5 sights of Uganda, the pearl of Africa
And what about a scooter trip to the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest , the abode of the majestic mountain gorilla. And in case of bad luck (I had a flat tire) an employee of Uganda Wildlife Service just transports you to the main road, 30 kilometers away!
4. Indonesia (Irian Jaya)
On almost every island in Indonesia you can rent a scooter or moped for next to nothing. I rented one myself in Java, Bali, Lombok, Flores, Kalimantan, Irian Jaya, Sulawesi and Sumatra. Oh and if I had to choose on which island I had the most beautiful experiences?
At first I thought of the north of Sulawesi with its volcanoes, tarsiers, azure blue sea with snow-white sand and the gruesome market in Tomohon (including sale of meat from dogs, snakes, turtles and cats).
Right after in the middle of Sulawesi. There are the most beautiful rice terraces in the world and a funeral is a huge happening: The land of the Toraja.

And what about a rupture through the lava sand on the way to the Bromo volcano on Java? Many went down.
Still, the journey on this retro scooter through the Baliem valley was the most unique experience for me.
I Myanmar visited a total of five times. Many touristic places have a ban on renting scooters to tourists, including: Mandalay, , Inle Lake, Bagan and Mrauk U is not a scooter rental. In Yangon, nobody is allowed to ride a scooter in the city center at all. There is scooter rental in Moulmein, Hsipaw, Ngwesaung and Mkyitkyina.
Still, I managed to rent a scooter from a hotel employee in Mandalay three times. Then I tore through various parts of beautiful Myanmar for at least a week.
My funniest scooter experience was the beach ride in Ngwesaung:
But the most absurd experience I had in the new capital of Myanmar: Naypidaw. In 2013, tourists were not really welcome in Naypidaw. Coincidentally, I drove into town and met a Dutch cyclist with a flat tire. He was chased by a Myanmar secret agent on a scooter.
This local James Bond eventually directed us to the special hotel zone for foreign visitors. How bizarre is the feeling of driving on a XNUMX-lane road that is completely empty. IT CAN ONLY HAPPEN IN NAYPIDAW!
A selection of other top locations for a scooter trip
'Top' lists are never complete. Below you will find a number of countries and places where you can travel around very nicely on a rented scooter.

What is it like to drive more than 10.000 kilometers in Madagascar on a locally bought scooter? Or on a pikipiki (scooter in Swahili) through East Africa? In more than 20 years I have visited more than 100 countries. This has resulted in a lot of priceless travel experiences, which I would like to share with you.
