tuk tuks are more expensive than metered cabs; the trouble is the tuk tuk drivers do not allow metered cabs to ply for business in tourist areas so you have to get your hotel to specifically order one to collect you from the hotel grounds. 200 baht milk float styled tuk tuk with motorbike engine, about 40 baht air conditioned, metered, licensed, insured, 1000cc real engined taxi; go figure.
