Drive safe and stay informed.

All our rental scooters, ATVs and buggies are insured with third-party liability, fire and theft coverage – as required by Greek law. Please note: In Greece, full coverage insurance (including driver-caused damages) is not offered by any insurance company for rental scooters or quads.

This means that:

• You’re covered if you cause damage to other vehicles or people.

• You’re also covered in case of fire or theft.

• However, any damage caused by the driver to the rented vehicle (e.g. falls, collisions, misuse) must be paid by the renter.

🔍 Important:
Many rental companies advertise “full insurance”, but if you read the small print, it’s still only third-party coverage – just like ours. The term “full insurance” can be misleading, and unfortunately, you might still be held liable for damages even if you thought everything was covered.

We believe in honesty and clarity – so you know exactly what to expect before you ride.
