This outfit had the only “full” size bikes in the area. Owner was great and made the pickup / return process very easy. Bike ran well and enabled some remote beach exploring. Very enjoyable and would rent here again.

My friend and I rented two XR150s from Chris and the experience couldn't have been better. He was extremely responsive when we had questions and volunteered exactly the right information we needed to make things easier. The bikes were in great mechanical shape and performed without a hitch. Note to future self: Though I'm glad I tried a 150 for our weeklong-adventure, there were actually enough steep hills between Tamarindo and Sámara and San José that I would rent something bigger next time (but that hasn't nothing to do with Chris' excellent service).
Be sure to get the tour of the Sibu Wildlife Sanctuary if you ride near Nosara.

Had an amazing experience renting an XR 150 from Chris. Bike was very well maintained. Pick up and drop off was easy even during early hours. Prices were reasonable too compared to other places. Chris is also very quick to respond in case of any issues. Highly recommend!

We rented two motorcycles, we were able to pick them up early in the morning. We just had to sign the contract and we were good to go. One of the bikes got a flat tire trough the day, the guys came out and had it fixed before I went up the following morning. When returning we received our deposit back instantly. With the best prices I can only recommend renting there.

I had the best experience renting a motorcycle from Chris. He even offered to pick me up from my Airbnb to bring me to his shop to pick up the motorcycle.
I would definitely recommend every rider to always rent a motorcycle when traveling. It’s the best way explore a new place.

Excellent. I rented a Honda RX650l for 20 days. Personalized service with no surprises or hassle. I'm going back next year and will rent from this place again.

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

Absolutely great to deal with! Chris gave us some tips on where to go in the area when we were there and was available by phone for whatever was needed. Would absolutely recommend!

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.

Highly recommend renting from El Gringo’s. Easy rental process, timely communication, and nice bike. I plan to rent again from El Gringo’s next time I am in the Tamarindo area.

We rented a bike to explore the surrounding beaches. Bike was is great condition and they delivered it to our hotel. Super accommodating! Look forward to doing it again.

Good experience ! El Gringo is accommodating. I took the cafe racer ! Was fun and safe to drive ! I recommand it !

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!

Chris & his team are great - delivered the Motorcycle to my hotel!! Thank you El Gringo!!!

If you’re looking for a motorcycle to ride while you are in town in Costa Rica near tamarindo this is the guy. His response time is impeccable and the bikes you have are tiptop shape first time in Costa Rica and the people here are an amazing. ‘Motorcycle is the the way to go to get around . Hit him up you won’t be disappointed .

Great bikes and even better service. Chris “El Gringo” replied immediately to our same day booking and delivered the bike to us personally. If you are looking for motorcycle rentals in or around tamarindo give them a call!

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.

Chris was awesome and super easy to work with. Booked last minute and he got me hooked up, great commutation and easy exchange. Highly recommend and will be using him again next time I’m back in Costa!

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.

Mitchell Johnston

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.

Awesome bikes and friendly service! Definitely check it out if you’re looking for a moto in the area. Thanks!

The quality of the bike is very good and is well maintained. We had a nice experience and the service was more than good.
The owner is a very friendly and helpful person! Also the price is fair compared to others. 5/5

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!

Jeff Allen

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!

Jeremy Dahm

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.

Fantastic company to work with. Rentals were a breeze, Chris had the paperwork done in a jiffy and I was out on the road in no time. Made touring the peninsula much more enjoyable, 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.

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.
