Tuk-tuks: Tuk-tuk
  • Tip Rating:
  • 'Mode': AROUND
    Category: Bicycle
    Getting TO/AROUND: Taxis are literally everywhere. By all means try the tuk-tuk for shorter trips. Tuk-tuks are motorized three wheeled vehicles (two maybe three passengers). It is fun to ride a tuk-tuk but the drivers tend to be reckless at times showing off their skills. Remember to negotiate the price in advance. Tuk-tuks are cheaper than a taxi. The bus and train services are reliable, but probably not the best option for the foreign visitor. The long-tailed boat taxis are a nice experience.
