Another reason that Tuk-tuks are seldom used is the Tuk-tuks drivers always charge too much. In my experience, I used to hire Tuk-tuks in Bangkok around three times and every time I’m overcharged by the drivers. For example, once I went to Siam Paragon for watching movie after that I wanted to go to Platinum fashion mall which is far from the Paragon only two kilometers. It was on Saturday evening that day, so taxis and buses are almost unavailable so, I had no choice but Tuk-tuks. I hired one to there and the driver ripped me off 100 baht, even if I took on a taxi meter I would pay only 60-70 baht. This is because the Tuk-tuks don’t have meter like the taxis so, the price of Tuk-tuk depends on the driver offer. Moreover, if you are foreigner it’s sure that you will get charged more than the Thais.
