There is a rental place in Fethiye on the roundabout at the end of the old town near the entry to the marina. They hire decent looking trailies ... maybe Aprilias ?. Not cheap.

We have made do with scoots as they are more practical and much cheaper. The big wheeled 200s are OK and a bit bigger. It all depeneds on where you are heading. The wee Yamaha scoots are surprisingly good on mountain tracks even two up :-)

Much as I love my bikes you may be just a well getting a quad or a car ( a car will definitely be cheaper)
