Motorized scooters are a great form of travel almost anywhere in the world. They are small, economical and fun. Of course, you sacrifice safety with just about any scooter that you ride. It is hard to have a scooter as an everyday vehicle, but they are great for warm weather vacation destinations or if you live in a rural area.
One of the best places to rent a scooter is Key West, FL. Key West is southern most point in Florida, located about 90 miles north of Cuba. This is a great place for renting a scooter because there is a lot to see. The famous author Ernest Hemingway spent a lot of time there, so you can visit his favorite hangouts. There is the southernmost point of the island where you can watch the sunset and raise your glass with the locals. Then you have to hit the famous bar district on Duval Street that is famous for its annual Fantasy Fest. Be careful when riding your scooter, though. Key West is made up of small streets with a lot of blind corners.
If you are traveling outside of the country, a scooter is your best option for small towns. Greece is famous for its scooters because the scenery is so unbelievable. Most of the islands also have very small roads that you would not want to be driving a car on. You won't be carrying your luggage on a scooter, but all you will need while you are there is a towel and a beach mat. It is also relatively easy to rent a scooter in Europe. Renting a car is can get complicated.
As long as you remember to wear your helmet, a scooter is a great idea that will make any vacation much more fun. You will also be able to see much more of any area that you visit. Most hotel concierges will know a good scooter destination, so make sure to ask them.
