Renting a motorbike or a scooter in Sardinia is the ideal choice if you’re looking for a practical and functional means of transport. The scooter is one of the most common options for those coming to Sardinia on holiday or on business trips. But how much does scooter rental cost and what documents are required? In this article, we provide all the information you need.
Scooter rental: required documents
Short-term motorbike rental requires the same requirements as car rental. You must meet the minimum age and hold the appropriate driving licence for the vehicle you intend to rent. In addition, most companies require a credit card as a rental guarantee. At Ellepirental, we also accept alternative guarantee and payment methods (cash and debit cards), and the credit card is not a strict requirement for the successful completion of the rental.
Among the documents required for airport rental are:
- a valid driving licence;
- an identity document;
- a credit card or other accepted payment methods.
Driver age requirements for scooter rental
If you wish to rent a scooter, you must meet the minimum driver age requirement. You need to be at least 21 years old and hold a licence with a minimum of two years of driving experience.
It is not possible to rent a scooter or motorbike on a short-term basis unless both requirements are met — the same rule applies to rental cars.
How much does it cost to rent a scooter?
The cost of scooter rental depends on several factors. First of all, it is important to consider the characteristics of the model you choose. There are different types of scooters, and each should be evaluated according to the needs of your trip. Every model has a different price, which affects the final rental rate.
The duration of the rental and the season (high or low) also influence the price range. Additional accessories and technical equipment, as well as the type of insurance selected for the rental period, can further affect the total cost. In most cases, the rental price already includes motorbike liability insurance, theft and fire coverage, and roadside assistance. However, you may wish to add extra coverage (such as personal accident insurance or Kasko).

Why choose short-term rental
Choosing to rent a motorbike or scooter comes with numerous advantages. Whether it’s for a business trip or a holiday in Sardinia, the scooter is extremely useful for reaching distant destinations and moving easily through city traffic.
There are also many scenic routes along the coast, full of bends, climbs and descents, offering breathtaking views. You can certainly drive these routes by car, but riding a motorbike makes the experience completely different. Especially if you’re used to travelling by motorbike but cannot bring yours with you, short-term rental is the perfect solution to make your trip unforgettable.
