khman Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.

BigC Posted November 17, 2012 Share Posted November 17, 2012 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 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khman Posted November 17, 2012 Author Share Posted November 17, 2012 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
