Motorcycle taxi is a famous mode of transport in Bangkok and most other major cities of Thailand. It is easily available and is used for local transporting. The motorbike taxi driver is called  P'win and wear vests. They have a yellow number plate and a yellow card. 

This card has the P'win’s photo and his P’win number that is same as the number on his vest. Local residents generally only use motorcycle taxis to get somewhere fast as metered taxicabs can get more expensive for short trips and are perhaps, also slower than flat-rate motorcycles.

A taxi will be your most common form of transportation throughout Thailand. So even though it’s a standardized system of transportation you should be aware of certain things to not get scammed and arrive at your destination without a hitch. You may face few problems thus we have created this honeymoon in thailand travel guide.

At some locations, taxis may or may not run on metre, so always ask in prior to taking up the ride. Similarly, use maps while commuting so it becomes easy for you to understand certain places than are written in English but are pronounced differently in Thai or any other local language. A business card will make this all the more easier for you. 

Buses in Bangkok operate daily from 5am to 11 pm. There are bus stops at a regular frequency in every city where you can board these city buses. You can note down the bus numbers that go to your destination and board one accordingly. Remember...buses with blue signs in the front window traffic take the normal route while buses with yellow signs take the expressway and therefore may not stop at many stops.

Your fares in a tuk tuk ride will always have to be bargained and some time, it is even possible to bargain tuk-tuk drivers down to less than the taxi flag fall of 35B in case they are making good value.
