Amazing

Magda helped us get sorted very quickly, organized everything and such a friendly lady even tho we rocked up at her home (by mistake) we rode around on a Forza and it was perfect for the hills and distance, Magdalena, I look forward to visiting and using your services again when we visit Thailand, might be a while but we will be back. I highly recommend this motorcycle rental business

Highly recommend

You order they deliver. A1 service they dropped off and picked up the bike at my preference. I was also encouraged to take photos of small existing scratches so no hidden costs. Bike was in good working order and was only asked for a photo of my passport not too hold it like most other places. Will definitely use their services again. Thank you.

Bike n service fine, business a bit... dodgy??

I booked on the Turtla website and got a rude shock when charged on PayPal in USD , it is noted on the website in the FAQ. For some countries like AUS the diff in exchange rate is high. In kindness, I was offered immediate refund and cancellation when I complained about this. So great customer service, but be aware that USD makes 'a deal' a little expensive compared to other options when you hit the ground in Phuket. But service is everything right? Bike had 34K on the clock when delivered ! Despite that it ran really well, no issues at all, and it topped out at over 100kmh woohoo!, very handy on longer rides. Rear suspension was a bit worn - this happens on rental bikes. meh. No km limits on bikes! , we intended to do some big k's up to Phong Nga and round island etc. so this was important, most others have 80km daily limit - which won't even get you round the island ! Everything from booking, communication via whatsapp (so easy!) dropoff and pickup at end of hire was all too simple. Really impressed with all the professional service and GREAT communications. No complaints. Now the not so normal... -Significant extra cost charged for dropout/pickup because I was 'so far away' except that I was staying as close to Chalong (the base) as most all the other popular spots on the island. We rode right through Chalong nearly every day. So that's wieird. -Asked for specific sized helmets cause I'm concerned about safety and got random 'bike helmets' that didn't fit at all, went back and changed over in Chalong. Many tourists ride in Phuket no helmet at all so Turtla probably thought nothing of it. This is normal for them I guess. No biggie. ****Never ride without a helmet, it's just stupid and voids any insurance cover you might have (assuming you have a bike licence at all, if not you're not covered!! ) **** -Most reviews for their service here on TA are IMHO seriously dodgy, single (or 2) reviewers, reviews from people many months after visiting (or visiting Phuket at all???!!). Ive used TA for many years, these reviews just can't be trusted. Just bumping up their profile by any means. - The actual business that Turtla supply from is "ABC Scooter Rentals" in Chalong which by all accounts is large, honest and well customised, so why these guys are running under another name is all just strange. NFI why this.... But putting aside all these oddities about the Turtla operation I had an easy and super professional service. I'd use them again. Mb after this review they won't hire to me again! Lol. Ride safe holiday people!

Hi! Thank you for your honest and long review :) All opinions are important for us, because we would like to have best service in Phuket. I would like to clarify few things: - regarding USD currency - yes we change in USD as is the most universal one, because we have customers from all over the world. And you may be right, that $ symbol in not enough to make it 100 % clear, however for most of the people is clear and we didn’t have any complains about it. I already discussed it with IT team and it will be improved soon - helmets - we don’t support riding without helmet and always ask our customers to ride in helmet. Safety of our customers is our big concern. We have helmets in many different sizes and shapes, also proper full face helmets, however during delivery we can’t take all of them for customers to try. It is always possible to change helmet at office - I can't agree with statement about our reviews. TA have very strict policy about reviews. And to be honest that is why we decided to use it. BTW: why you think it's not possible to give review after few months? - ABC Bikes is our biggest business partner - I hope we can work with these guys forever :) they are the best and it is our business model to work with partners I hope to rent you bike again in the future Best Regards Magda

Holiday bike rental in Phuket, Thailand 🇹🇭

Magda and his team at Motorbike_Rental_by_Turtla-Phuket.html were really great, I booked the bike before we left for Phuket and Magda was quick to communicate over whatsapp. This remained the best way to get in touch both before, during and after our stay. The drop off and collection of our bike was pre-arranged at our hotel saving time and money trying to locate the bike rental outlet. They were really punctual too. We hired a Honda forza 300 cc which was more than capable to carry us and our belongings around Phuket with plenty of ease and comfort, especially when negotiating the hilly areas and the trickier roads with many bends. The bike was really reasonable to hire and Magda accepted the security deposit in AUD allowing you to return with your home currency which is important. Thanks Magda and team for a great service and I’d happily recommend and use your service again.

Great guys, booked on WhatsApp from home, they transferred the bike to the hotel for free, also picked it up for free. They did not bother much with the paperwork. Took photo from the bike and handover, saved it to WhatsApp. Bike was all right, perfect. They even gave a free box. 5*. Great service.

The best scooter rental of all in Phuket

Super friendly reservation, the scooter was delivered to the hotel and picked up again. The scooter had no problems and ran great, we have about 500km back with the scooter and could see all phuket. Alex who brought us the scooter was so friendly and gave us tips for trips. we did not have to deposit a passport just the copy and the depot, for me a great service. I recommend you rent the scooter here. We were really excited. Best regards and thanks to Magda, Alex and Andrey

Highly recommend

I can't recommend enough...when you want to enjoy your time in Phuket, you don't want to be worrying about your bike rental. Delivered to hotel, picked up when finished... A big thank you from me...But go for a 150cc minimum, some of those hills are brutal :)...

Отличный сервис)

Не первый раз беру байк в аренду и был приятно удивлён сервисом: -Доставка байка в отель; - Не требуют паспорт в залог. Да, цена чуть выше, но это того стоит)

Affidabilità

Questa attività commerciale di noleggio moto è stata una gran soddisfazione. Non hanno strane richieste del tipo "trattenere passaporto". Zero sorprese sul conto finale. Noi abbiamo noleggiato una Honda CB 500, a pagamento ti fanno la consegna al tuo albergo, la moto era in buono stato come lo erano i caschi. Puntuali, affidabili, gentili e disponibili. Dal primo contatto WhatsApp prima del viaggio, fino al drop-off del veicolo. Continuate così! Giuseppe

We rent moto from Turtla. It was the best decision on whole Holiday. Our Honda was in perfect condicion and looked like brand New. They have motobikes not older than few years. I felt in love to this bike from the beginning of Our trip. Guys from Turtla are very kind and helpful. I can recommend this company 100%.

Excellent experience!

We rented online from Magda a Honda PCX 150cc for 10 days at the end of January! Andrey brought us the scooter in our hotel in Patong ON TIME. The scooter was new and in great conditions. The price was really good comparing with other companies near by. They kept 3000Thai Baht for guarantee but they didn’t keep our passports. They gave us brand new modern helmets. All in all this was a brilliant scooter rental! Thank you guys! Hopefully we will see you again next year!

Many thanks to Magda and her team for the service they provided. I've heard a lot about difficulties with renting a big bike in Thailand but you will meet non of them dealing with this team. Good bikes and reliable service for a reasonable price. My best recommendations.

#MotoPhuket adventures

Hi friend, I would like to tell about my excellent experience and perfect holidays with rented Honda CRF 250. More than 600 km during one week were driven. All beaches and interesting places in phuket were visited in easily and fast way. There is sense in Enduro if you are going every day more than 50 km from your place of staying and some sand or mud roads are planned (big budda mountain, or some other view points). In other cases I recomend something more comfortable and fast like Duke 390, all regular roads are good, but be careful in turns, some sand is not are rare. Just one sad moment - cross helments were not available, for enduro look is obliged.
