Top 5 best scooter rentals in Vic

Picture this: cobblestone lanes fanning out from the porticoed Plaça Major, church bells drifting over rooftops, and a whole medieval town small enough to feel intimate but spread out enough that walking gets old fast. That's Vic. Rent a scooter here and the Roman Temple, the cathedral, and the countryside beyond all fall within easy reach, with the turquoise waters of the Sau Reservoir waiting just twenty kilometres down the road.

Vic's old town wasn't built with cars in mind — its arcaded streets are narrow, its parking scarce, and a scooter slips through both without a second thought. Once you're past the centre, the Plana de Vic opens into rolling farmland and quiet backroads that lead toward the villages and viewpoints of Collsacabra, terrain a scooter handles comfortably without needing anything heavier.

What do you need to rent a scooter in Vic?

For a 50cc moped you need an AM licence, or any full car licence covers it. For a 125cc scooter, non-EU visitors generally need an A1 motorcycle licence, since the Spanish rule letting B-licence holders ride 125cc after three years only applies within Spain. Rental companies usually set their own minimum age, often 18 or 21, and will ask for a deposit blocked on a credit card. If your licence isn't from the EU, bring an International Driving Permit along with your home licence.
