Fair Taxi

[khman]

Hello,

I need a taxi for 3-4 days, to do for me small trips..

Bring me (we are 4) from Chaweng beach to Tesco lotus..

Chaweng to Lamai...

And wait for us, 1 hour, come back...

Is it possible to "rent"a taxi driver?

Otherwise I may negociate each trip.

Can you give me the real rates for Chaweng Beach-Lamai?

Chaweng-Tesco...?

Thanks

Chewang to lamai , 600 or 700 depending on weather , chewang beach to tesco , 300 thb ....

If you need to do multiple trips in one day , better to use one driver and get a deal ,

Cheaper for the OP to rent a car if not drinking which shows how insane it is. This time of year could maybe get a jeep for the day for 500 Baht while I have to really push to get a return journey from Lamai to Chaweng for 1000.

what about if one was to find a thai with their own car that you could agree a rate for a set time. for example 3 days plus gas

Hello,

I found Chaweng beach Lamai beach 800thb round trip

Chaweng Beach Tesco Lotus 400thb round trip

Still excessive IMO but good price for here I believe.

Far from reasonable but as you say, good price on Samui.

I guess BigC's idea is a non starter for some reason? This time of year most people are earning very little or breaking even so they are willing to practically anything to earn a few bob. Must be lots of people out there willing to earn 300-500 Baht (plus fuel) to just drive around for a couple of hours.
