Ohyesuare Posted November 4, 2023 Share Posted November 4, 2023 They can show whatever price the app calculates but I'd be shocked if there's some random Grab driver in Prakhon Chai who would accept and for that price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post HauptmannUK Posted November 4, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted November 4, 2023 Its not impossible. I paid just over ฿1000 for 120km (2 hours) Grab ride from just north of Saraburi to BKK. Few months ago. 1 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mika78 Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 What is the price that you see in the application, is the price you have to pay. No one more baht. I use most of the time motobike: from third road, TOT, to Tukcom, with a normal taxi it will be 100 thb. With a grab taxi bike half of it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chivas Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 Whilst not Grab I acknowledge I use Bolt on a regular basis and shocked how low the prices are at times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdemundo Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 In my experience the prices are comparable to meter taxis. In my experience the big benefit of Grab is the drivers use GPS so can find your pickup and destination. Sometimes the taxi service my condo service people call gets lost on the way to pick me up.

Few months ago. @JessieDog I don't find this particularly unusual or unbelievable ... often trips originate from Bangkok to the provinces and are priced assuming that they return without a passenger. Any driver is happy to get someone returning to the Bangkok area at reduced fares. Also consider, that if u ask, drivers will quote you ~2000 for an 8 hour day.

Skeptic7 Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 It's accurate. Problem may be finding a driver to accept. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
