Many motorbike rental providers advertise their services with the promise cheap motorbike, and many potential customers don't realize there are additional fees that aren't initially disclosed, which can end up inflating their travel budget. Some of these hidden costs include :
Pick-Up and Drop-Off Fees: At 493 Scooter Rental, we offer free pick-up and drop-off services in the Kuta, Legian, Seminyak, and airport areas. However, many other rentals do not provide this service, which can result in extra charges if you ask them to deliver the bike to your accommodation or the airport.
Fuel Costs: At 493 Scooter Rental, we provide 1 liter of gasoline (worth 10k) for free. In other rentals, they might not offer any fuel at all, which can save you some spending money.
Deposit: When you rent with 493 Scooter Rental, you don't need to pay an extra fee for a deposit. Other rental companies typically require a deposit of 1 - 1.5 million IDR.
Late Return Fees: Some rentals impose late fees if their customers return the bike a few minutes past the deadline. At 493 Scooter Rental, we offer a grace period of up to one hour, understanding that unpredictable factors like traffic can delay your return. We are flexible with this and tolerate delays of up to an hour.
Daily Mileage Limits: Some rental providers limit how far their customers can ride the bike per day, and if you exceed that distance, they charge extra fees. At 493 Scooter Rental, we do not impose such limits—customers are free to ride as far as they like. The only restrictions are on the agreed rental period and the prohibition against crossing the sea off the island of Bali.
Accessory Fees: Some rentals do not include accessories like raincoats, and they might only provide one free helmet, with an additional fee for a second helmet. At 493 Scooter Rental, with our affordable rental rates, you get two adult helmets, one child helmet, and two raincoats included.
Special Fees for Foreign Tourists: Some rental companies may charge higher rates or additional fees if you are a foreign tourist. These special prices are often not openly stated and can come up during negotiations. But not at 493 Scooter Rental—we do not differentiate between foreign tourists and locals. The prices listed on our website are the same for everyone.
To make sure you get a truly affordable rental rate, always clarify all the costs before renting a bike, read reviews from other customers, and don't hesitate to compare prices from different providers.
