Honda Activa 125 on Rent in Tapovan, Rishikesh
₹500 a day. It is the most-rented vehicle in Rishikesh and, for most people who come through our door, the right one.
We say that as a shop that would rather rent you a ₹2,000 Himalayan. But if your week is Tapovan to the market, down to Laxman Jhula, across to the Beatles Ashram, up to Kunjapuri once for the sunrise — a scooty does all of that, costs a quarter as much, parks in gaps a motorcycle can't enter, and doesn't require you to have ever ridden anything before.

Who It's For
Take the Activa if:
- You're in Tapovan for a yoga course and need to move between your school, your room and the market every day
- You've never ridden a geared motorcycle and this isn't the trip to learn
- Your riding is Rishikesh and day trips within 40 km — Neelkanth, Kunjapuri, Shivpuri, Neer Waterfall
- You're travelling on a budget and would rather spend the difference on the trip
- You want something you can park anywhere near Laxman Jhula without a twenty-minute search
Don't take the Activa if:
- You're going to Chopta, Kedarnath, Badrinath or anywhere past Rudraprayag — 5.3 litres of fuel, small wheels and no ground clearance make it a bad idea on hill roads with long fuel gaps
- You're riding two-up with luggage for more than a day
- You're covering more than about 120 km in a day

Monthly Rentals for Yoga Students
Tapovan runs on 200-hour and 300-hour teacher training courses, and every one of them means a month here. ₹9,000 for the month works out at ₹300 a day, which is roughly two auto rides. Servicing during your rental is on us, and if the scooty gives trouble we swap it rather than making you wait.
If your course dates are fixed, tell us early. February to April and September to November, the monthly scooties are all out.
What You Need
Original two-wheeler driving licence and one government photo ID. Visiting from abroad: home country licence, an International Driving Permit issued before you travelled, and your passport. Deposit ₹1,000, back in your hand in cash or UPI when you return it. Full documents guide →
