Thailand Travel by Motorbike-taxi
The motorbike taxis is not recommended for first time visitors. However, it’s unusual to see some expatriates on back of the bike. If you are desperately in a hurry for an important meeting or catching a plane or a train but getting trapped into a motionless trail of traffic, here are the tips of how to be on a bike.
- You can find the service almost at every corner of Bangkok, mostly in front of business buildings, bus or sky-train stations or shopping malls.
- The fare rates vary to the distance of the trip and are negotiable.
- Ask for a helmet from the driver (helmet was mandatory when taking a ride.)
- Passengers might cover their heads or hairs with a handkerchief to avoid getting some arduous odor from the helmet before wearing it.
