Before You Buy ANY Scooter in the Philippines, Watch This Eye Opening Expat Guide 🇵🇭

Before you buy ANY scooter in the Philippines, WATCH THIS FIRST! 🇵🇭 In this episode of The Ugly Tourist, I hit the streets of Angeles City and cruise down McArthur Boulevard to check out both Honda and Yamaha dealerships. Whether you’re looking for a budget-friendly city scooter or something powerful enough for cross-country rides, we’ve got you covered — with real prices, real models, and real talk straight from the dealerships. Scooters are by far the #1 choice for both Filipinos and expats in the Philippines. They’re easy to maintain, fuel-efficient, and perfect for navigating the country’s traffic and narrow roads. But which one should you buy? Today, we’re comparing some of the most popular scooters in the Philippines for 2025 — including the best-selling Honda Click 125i, the upgraded Click 160, and the adventure-ready Honda ADV 160. We’ll also look at the Yamaha Mio and Yamaha NMAX, both favorites among locals and foreigners alike. You’ve seen other vloggers like Jo Go Wonder, Tim K, and The Regular Guy riding scooters all across the Philippines — they made it part of their daily expat life. So why not me? 😅 And yes… I might’ve ended up sitting on a ₱600,000+ Honda motorcycle that’s way out of my price range. It’s definitely not the scooter I came for, but hey — it makes one awesome thumbnail! Even KITT, my talking golf cart and alter ego, wasn’t thrilled about me bike shopping again. (If you’re new here, KITT recently defected to Ace Bachelor Cool’s YouTube channel after the Ugly Tourist Uncut layoffs — but don’t worry, he still talks to me when he’s not too busy.) If you’ve ever wondered: How much do scooters really cost in the Philippines? What’s the best scooter for expats or retirees in 2025? Should you buy new or used? Which is better for long rides — the Honda Click, the Honda ADV, or the Yamaha NMAX? Then this is the most complete scooter buying guide for the Philippines you’ll find on YouTube. You’ll see actual dealership prices, get honest answers from salespeople, and hear my expat perspective on which scooters are worth your peso. We’ll cover everything — from comfort and power to resale value and ease of registration — whether you’re just driving around Angeles City or planning road trips through Luzon. 💡 Featured SEO Keywords: scooter philippines, honda click philippines, honda click 160, honda click 125i, honda adv 160 philippines, yamaha mio, yamaha nmax, honda scooter philippines, yamaha scooter philippines, scooter comparison philippines, best scooter 2025, scooter price philippines 2025, expat life philippines, living in the philippines, retire in the philippines, transportation philippines, ugly tourist, jo go wonder, tim k philippines, regular guy philippines, ace bachelor cool, overstay road, age gap relationship philippines, expat vlog philippines, travel philippines 📣 CALL TO ACTION: If you love honest expat content, real prices, and funny life-in-the-Philippines stories, make sure to: ✅ LIKE this video ✅ COMMENT which scooter you’d pick — Click, ADV, or NMAX? ✅ SUBSCRIBE to The Ugly Tourist for weekly videos Your support keeps this channel alive and helps us fight back against the YouTube algorithm.
