In this Vlog we show the good and the bad, so the idea is to prove that not everyone is a scammer ,and most of the taxis and tuk tuks are friendly and helpful. So hope the vlog was clear and helpful

@wadeducheneaux1467 Год назад

Yes, a Tuk Tuk might say 100 Bhat, but on the way to the various sites he will want to stop at a gem shop or a tailor shop as he will get "gas coupons" or such for bringing tourists. Even if you tell him you are not interested, he will insist. I had that happen and was so disgusted I left the Tuk Tuk, not knowing where I was. But it worked out as I learned how to use the river bus and after a 20-minute walk from where the driver made sure I got off, I was back at my hotel. So, to see if it is a scam or not you need to take the actual trip, not just take his word that he is "only" going to charge 100 Bhat and is not taking advantage of tourists.

@haiamtalaat6555 Год назад

Happened to me many times

@sarge_4412 Год назад

Thats exactly what happend to me with a taxi driver who became my friend. He explained that he’ll just take me there and he’ll get a gas coupon even if I dont buy so I agreed and we went to a few places, I spent a few minutes at each place and walked out without buying anything then I offered to buy him lunch lol. Fun experience 😁

@ganesankpillay3768 Год назад

Absolutely. Spot on

@zanedetraveler2275 Год назад

@sarge_44 exactly! You don't have to buy anything! He's helping you out and your helping him out. 😂 I actually met the guy in this video who said 100thb he's legit and a good guy

@kevinf-b5065 Год назад

The B100 TUK TUK Would have taken you to a gem shop en route, he said so, a scam

@johannesjohnlie8208 Год назад

The 100 baht tuk tuk was the biggest scammer,watch out!!!

@maggie.4284 Год назад

May be he has friends or brother in law with a tailor shop or something else:))

@simonakers4381 Год назад

Yep you will stop every 10 min try to get you buy stuff

@BartSPL Год назад

Well, it is a scam however only if you don't purchase anything along his scam route, you could get away with a 100 baht ride but highly doubt he would keep that price at the end if nothing was purchased along the way

@stampmagroodin9212 Год назад

I am Thai if I take Tuk Tuk the price start from 100 THB but I prefer to take Taxi and ask them to press meter.

@klausw.5612 Год назад

Most of the people there want simply survive and many have family which needs food and more. That’s the truth and explains the prices for rich foreigner. If people pay the money, it’s there own fault 😊😊🙏🇹🇭 ❤Thailand

Exactly

@klausw.5612 Год назад

If you turn left on 4:44 there is after 50m a tiny coffee shop on the right hand side, very very good, take a TukTuk is a bit a game😅, newbie’s will pay more I guess 😂 but it’s Thailand 🇹🇭, so enjoy your holiday, nice informative vlog, stay safe😊🙏🏼🇹🇭

สวัสดีครับผมเป็นคนไทยคนหนึ่งและผมก็ไม่ชอบการหลอกลวงนักท่องเทียว ที่มักจะมีการหลอกลวงนักท่องเที่ยวในแหล่งท่องเที่ยวในขณะที่คนไทยส่วนใหญ่ช่วยกันดูแลนักท่องเที่ยวด้วยไมตรีเพื่อให้เกิดความประทับใจในการมาท่องเที่ยวในประเทศไทย

I guess it also depends on season, I was in a november and not once someone asked more than 150 for a tuk tuk, and yeah usually just said 100 and they usually agreed on 100

Biggest scam I fell for the 'fruit drink' seller. It was fruit syrup and ice. The taste left after a few sips. I was fooled by the size.

Even Thai I got scam too. Around 120THB from Tha Phrachan to MRT Sanam Chai(Wat Pho)(around 1KM). But I’m not too concern at that time because I’m hurrying to catch my train at Hua lumphong.

@anandpursahib Год назад

Please let us know if we should go for GRAB taxis instead of Tuk-Tuks and Meter taxis?

@KamalSaid83 Год назад

Grab / Bolt is definitely better..

@janwillemkram5662 Год назад

Grab is safe. Price is set before the trip. No incentives for the driver to take any other then the fastest route.

@jonhobson3592 Год назад

@@janwillemkram5662 yes but I find they can be more than a regular taxi sometimes

@jeffreyjamestv Год назад

You should use Grab which will cost you 10% more than the best price you would be able to haggle in 38 degree heat. IF you can't afford that you should not be visiting Thailand.

In Thailand or VN.....before entering a taxi. I'll always mention my intended destination AND I'll ask, "Is the meter working?" If they respond with a story that the meter is "broken" or a set price. IMHO they are more than likely a scammer. If they respond with "It'll be about x." That's a good sign. BUT, be sure that they'll use the meter. WHY? Because, when you think about it. How is a tourist suppose to know, "What's a FAIR price"? Paying the meter price is IMHO.....FAIR. It's the "default" position. While working "off meter".....is not FAIR. The driver is trying NOT TO CLAIM PROPER income taxes and/or NOT having the Taxi Company know what's going on. A scammer move. In Thailand (or VN). I'm quite sure that the KING (or communist Govt, in VN) want's a fair share? So, if the driver is "working off meter". Isn't he/she actually cheating The KING (or Govt)? Oooops...... That all being said....don't forget to TIP the honest ones.

ราคาค่าโดยสารรถตุ๊กไทยขึ้นอยู่กับการเจรจา เราไม่มีทางรู้ได้ว่าราคาแท้จริงนั้นควรเป็นเท่าไหร่ แม้กระทั่งคนไทยอย่างฉันก็ไม่รู้ราคาแท้จริงถ้าไม่ได้ขึ้นประจำ แต่ถ้าตกลงราคากันได้ไม่ลงตัว โปรดเลือกรถโดยสารอื่นแทน แต่ถ้าตกลงราคากันเรียบร้อยแล้วตั้งแต่แรก เมื่อเดินทางไปถึงจุดหมาย คนขับรถกลับบังคับให้จ่ายราคาแพงกว่าเดิมโดยไม่ใช่ที่ตกลงกันไว้ตั้งแต่แรก คุณสามารถแจ้งให้เจ้าหน้าที่ตำรวจรับทราบได้โดยเบอร์โทร 1584 และถ้ารถตุ๊กนำคุณไปสถานที่อื่นที่ไม่ใช่จุดหมาย อย่างเช่นร้านขายของ เป็นต้น คุณต้องบอกรถตุ๊กว่าเราไม่ต้องการ แต่ถ้ารถตุ๊กยังคงไม่รับฟัง คุณต้องขู่ว่าจะแจ้งตำรวจ หรือไม่ก็คุณต้องใช้วิธีโวยวาย โดยคุณต้องโวยวายเสียงดังว่าจะแจ้งตำรวจ พูดคำว่าตำรวจให้ดังมากที่สุด (แต่ก่อนที่จะขึ้นรถโดยสาร กรุณาถ่ายรูปหน้าตาของคนขับรถโดยสารและหมายเลขทะเบียนรถเอาไว้ด้วย และถ้าเป็นไปได้ ควรจะอัดคลิปวิดีโอตอนที่เจรจาราคาค่าโดยสารเอาไว้ด้วย เพราะต้องใช้เป็นหลักฐาน) ฉันยอมรับว่าวิธีการนั้นยุ่งยากและเสียเวลามาก ดังนั้นถ้าเป็นไปได้โปรดขึ้นรถโดยสารแท็กซี่จะดีที่สุด แต่ถ้ารถแท็กซี่ไม่ยอมกดมิเตอร์เพื่อคิดราคาตามระยะทาง เราก็ไม่ต้องขึ้นรถแท็กซี่คันนั้น โปรดเลือกรถแท็กซี่คันต่อไปแทน ปัญหาเรื่องรถโดยสารเช่นนี้แก้ไขยากมาก เพราะส่วนใหญ่ผู้เสียหายไม่มีหลักฐานเพื่อดำเนินคดีและส่วนใหญ่ผู้โดยสารไม่อยากเสียเวลาเพื่อรอดำเนินคดี ตำรวจจึงไม่สามารถจับคนเหล่านี้ได้

@kamolhengkiatisak1527 Год назад

@@petersutherland1985 That's true but at the touristy area, tuk tuk rules. If you don't want to wait, hop on. If you want to wait, hail taxi or use GRAB.
