We
have outlined on other pages travel by foot,
road, sea, air, hitchhiking, bike, train,
bus etc but there are other alternatives
if you want a really different holiday in
Scotland.
MOTORCYCLE
A very simple method is to hire a motorcyle.
Scotland is a superb country for motorcycle
touring, with winding roads of good quality
and lots of stunning scenery.
Motonline allows you to rent a bike throughout
Europe and there are pickup and drop off
points (for additional fees). Rentable
bikes include Ducati, Aprilia, Yamaha
and BMW. www.rent.motonline.com rent@motonline.com.
Road Rules and Tolls
Helmets are compulsory for motorcyclists
and their passengers. Check out our driving
pages for full road rules in Scotland.

TRUCKS AND COMMERCIAL VEHICLES
This is a form of hitch hiking but truck
drivers are often glad for a bit of company
on the road and commercial or delivery
drivers have been known to take tourists
along for a ride in return for some help
on the job.

transport around Scotland then please
