El Gringo's Rental is the best bike rental in Tama, large variety even was an option for me who doesn't has a license.Graetest service, even when I broke a part didn't make a fuss about that and gave me a really descent price.And in the end can't forget Chris is one of the most cool, interesting and sympathetic people I have met in Costa Rica overall

I had one of the 150s for 3 weeks touring. A 150 was just fine for the Costa Rica roads and has a great rack on the back of the bike to strap gear down. My friend got a flat on his bike in tamarindo and it got repaired quickly with no hassle and we were back to riding. Highly recommend!!!

so many good things to say about renting bikes from Chris he really takes the hassle out of everything! riding bikes is the best way to experience the Nicoya peninsula. My wife and I rented two Honda 150s and it was the best experience of our month here. Communication with Chris is super easy and he is very accommodating I would 10/10 recommend renting bikes from Chris over any other rental company in the area! If you’re looking to rent motorcycles you can stop looking and book with Chris he’s the best.

Great experience, well maintained bikes. The only reason I may rent from a different company next time is because the selection is small. Get a 600+ cc touring bike and I'll never rent from anywhere else in Costa Rica again!

Highly recommend renting a bike from Chris at El Gringo’s, excellent way to see the coast and venture out from the hotel. I rented an XR650L which was great for my wife and I, we rode from Brasilito to Nosara and saw so much wildlife, beautiful views, and ate some of the best food we’ve had in Costa Rica. 10/10 recommend renting a motorcycle here.

The owner was very responsive. He helped go over all of the different options. We rented a 150cc moto. After we returned the moto the owner gave us a ride back to our resort.

Chris is one of the best humans I’ve met in my life. He is an incredibly ethical guy, has a true passion for motos, and rents high quality bikes.Highly recommend renting through Chris when you’re in Costa Rica you will enjoy piece of mind knowing the bike will perform and that you won’t have to worry about get shafted in any way.

Your BEST option for moto rentals. Look no further! Rented 4 motorcycles from Chris for a guy's trip around the Nicoya Peninsula. Everything was fantastic! 150cc bikes really are enough for the job. Bikes worked great - we had no issues - and Chris was super easy to communicate with. Thanks again Chris! We will be BACK!

I rented a motorcycle from Chris on three separate occasions during our two month stay in Costa Rica. This is the best place to rent a motorcycle in the Tamarindo area. The Honda 150 enduro bikes are perfect for the Costa Rican roads. Chris is very friendly, the bikes are well maintained and the experience is hassle free. I highly recommend El Gringo’s Rentals!

You have to rent a bike in Costa Rica. Best way to bust around. Chris is the epitome of CR. Easy to deal with, helpful, and super friendly. The CRF150l was a hoot and perfect for our needs. Highly recommend.

I had such a great time with my rental from El Gringo’s. The whole transaction was extremely smooth, Chris was a fantastic guy, the bike was great, everything about the experience was perfect.I was visiting from the US and in Tamarindo for a few days so I rented the bike and kept it for my whole time there. I had parking behind a locked gate at my AirBnB and it worked out perfectly keeping the bike.I had several short rides in my few days with the bike and it was awesome. The XR150 is all you need to explore Tamarindo and there is plenty of exploring to do. The town is great and it doesn’t take three minutes even if you’re staying right downtown to get out into some great back-country riding.I had 100% confidence in the XR150. I’ve had bikes where you’re a little hesitant to shut them off — not so with the XR150. I had no worries about shutting it off and getting off the bike even in some pretty out-of-the way areas.The XR150 has a rear rack. I brought a Wolfman dry bag and a couple of straps and I was similarly equipped to back home in five minutes.I brought all my gear from home. Alpinestars boots, mesh jacket, helmet, and gloves. I just checked them in a big duffel bag. For $30, it was well-worth having all my own gear. Chris said: “You know who wears boots in this country? You . . . and me.” Definitely bring your boots. Your ankle doesn’t know the difference between Tamarindo and back home and you don’t want to lose days out of your trip tracking down healthcare for a broken ankle that boots would have prevented.At home I ride a Yamaha XT250 and a Suzuki VanVan a lot so I’m used to small bikes, but if you only ride bigger bikes and you’re worried the XR150 is too small, don’t worry at all. The XR150 is the right tool for the job. With the size and type of roads in Guanacaste Province, the XR150 is perfectly at home. You see them all over the place in Guanacaste. In San Jose I noticed a higher proportion of Chinese bikes but in Guanacaste it seems like the XR150 rules the day. I saw one or two foreigners on big GS1200 kinds of bikes that maybe they rode down there and they looked very much out of place. The XR150 will easily get you where you need to go in Guanacaste. I drove a RAV4 from San Jose to Manuel Antonio on very small back roads, and the XR150 would have been perfect for that. I drove the RAV4 from Manuel Antonio to Tamarindo on larger roads and the XR150 would have been fine but not ideal for those roads where you can sometimes cruise at 80kph.If you’re based out of Tamarindo and you want to ride every day, get the XR150. You’ll be glad you did.Chris is a very knowledge, helpful, friendly guy who wants to help you have fun. He maintains his bikes very well and has a lot of experience maintaining a fleet in much more logistically demanding environments than Guanacaste Province where he’s got access to a Honda dealership down the road and at least another couple of them within 50 miles.If you’re planning a trip to the Tamarindo area and you want to ask me some questions about the experience, you can find me at my website scottboyan.com where I’ll also have some videos I took on El Gringo’s bike.

My Girlfriend and I had a wicked good time cruising around and exploring the Tamarindo area coast line on a wonderful Honda 125 dirt bike. Chris and his wife were super helpful, and return messages and answer all questions promptly.

For our first ever trip to Costa Rica we wanted to rent a couple of motorcycles to explore Guanacaste province. Chris was quick and professional in getting us booked before we arrived in Costa Rica. Motorcycles were ready for us to hop on and go (after the standard rental paperwork). We had a great time! Don’t hesitate to use El Gringo’s Motorcycle Rentals if you are in Costa Rica.
