Have seen rickshaws in Hua Hin and Krabi,but cant find in Phuket.... Anybody knows?????????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimi007 Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 Saleens aren't bad enough around here? You want to do WHAT? Thankfully I've never seen one in Phuket, hopefully it stays that way. I did see a lot of them up near Kanchanaburi years ago though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevenl Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Don't know of any here, but if you can travel a bit, many of them in Issaan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phuketrichard Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 bit off topic but... Ebikes are VERY popular for tourists in Bagan, Myanmar for getting around ( your not allowed or rent motorcycles) $8/day There kinda cool but slow ( perfect for Bagan as its flat) and not sure they would handle the hills in Phuket.might be good for Hua Hin/Pattaya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eezergood Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Hua hin is the place to find these Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phuketrichard Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Krabi is to small (not to mention few westerners) and the distance between Krabi town and Ao nang would not work for the bikes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhuketGreenbike Posted August 31, 2014 Author Share Posted August 31, 2014 Krabi is to small (not to mention few westerners) and the distance between Krabi town and Ao nang would not work for the bikes you migtht be right with Krabi being too small and few westeners,but distance Krabi to Aonang is not an issue for 2 way ride especially as it is flat........
