Batanes is very suited to a self-tour due to the simplicity of the roads as well as the clearly marked points of interest. We provide a self-guided travel map with each scooter that will navigate you to all the wonderful sights on Batan Island.

There are some fantastic tour guides if you require more information or would like a local’s knowledge. We are happy to provide a guided scooter tour, which is quite simply the best way to tour. More comfortable than a trike and a bit more independent as you can stop where you please. We recommend a 1/2-day guided scooter tour, and then you can explore on your own.
