Andreas84 Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 I need to rent a Taxi from 9am-7pm Thursday this week. I will arrive Bkk late the night before. What is the best way to book a taxi for the full day and how may I book it in advance? How much does it cost? I imagine something around 2 000 baht? We will drive from near the victory monument to Saraburi (about 2 hours drive), then the driver will wait for us there until we leave around 1630, then go to Don Mueang airport. We will be 2 or 3 paseengers in the car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phetphet Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 Just approach a few for a quote. If you have Grab Taxi app on your phone, you might be able to call a taxi via that and negotiate a price with the driver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RLAretired Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 (edited) All Thai Taxi promises to go anywhere in Thailand. Very comfortable Toyota Prius cars. Clean and well maintained. Always careful, polite drivers -- but don't expect fluent English. They take advance bookings and will wait for you (with meter running, of course). For advance booking, must call by phone and speak with customer agent. Some agents speak acceptable English. Cannot use mobile phone app for advance bookings. I just booked a similar trip yesterday: Extra charge for advance booking by phone: 100 baht. Waiting time: 2 baht/minute. allthaitaxi.com/website/en/home/ Grab Taxi or Uber are fine, and I use them a lot, too, but with the lower-cost vehicles (eg. Uber-X) never know what kind of car will arrive: Will it be roomy and comfortable, or small and not so comfortable for a long trip? For your full-day trip, All Thai Taxi is the best choice.

scoutman360 Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 I once had a taxi all day for 2k baht in Bangkok. Sounds reasonable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mogandave Posted December 25, 2016 Share Posted December 25, 2016 2k all day sounds low to me, what fuel cost? at least 1k from BKK to Patt's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe they do a meter rate inside town, but a lot of taxis seem to have flat rates for trips to other cities outbound. I'm not sure how that would work if someone is expecting the taxi to wait there at the destination point for some hours before returning back to BKK as part of a roundtrip fare. .

buick Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 i used to pay a taxi guy 2,000 to help me run some errands and such. i'd usually leave around 10am and come back about 3pm. this was all within greater bkk (i did get out close to dmk a few times, as far out as i got). once i had to do a bkk/rayong roundtrip. i paid a guy 5,000. he took me there and came to get me a few days later. so he got 2500 for each day of work.
