Goa is a small state, but exploring it by bus takes a
\nlong time, and taxis can be expensive. Renting a motorbike or moped is the
\nbest way to explore this beautiful region. Motorbikes and mopeds can be
\nrented in most places tourists are staying, and everyone seems to know someone
\nwho has one for rent. The roads in Goa are responsably good, especially for India.<\/p>\n
The road signs in Goa are generally better than in most
\nplaces in India, and you’re unlikely to need a map. If you are not sure
\njust ask a local, but never ask a leading question. Don’t ask ‘Is this the way
\nto Anjuna?’ as the response might be a yes even if the answer is no. This
\noften happens because this is the only English response people know, or they
\nsimply don’t know the way and they don’t want to disappoint. Always ask
\n‘Which way to Anjuna?’, and asses your response. Most Goan’s speak good
\nEnglish and are more than happy to help.<\/p>\n
Motorbikes cost around INR350 per day, maybe a little
\nmore for an Enfield. But scooters, or mopeds, are more than adequate and cost
\naround INR250 per day. You get get great discounts outside of the
\nhigh season. The roads vary in quality, but most vehicles cruise at 80kph
\non the NH17 main road, and the scooters can match this speed. Of course
\nthe Enfield is the classic Indian motorbike experience, but you may have to get
\nup early to secure one as there are fewer to rent.<\/p>\n
When riding on the roads always give way to large
\ntrucks, because they will push you off the road otherwise. Also don’t
\nassume that other vehicles will give way at roundabouts. Basically keep
\nyour eyes peeled, ride safely and have fun.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
