My First ever Tuk Tuk ride in Bangkok Thailand.

Vlog # 12
I got in just outside Vimanmek Mansion 22.11.15 and wanted to go over to Soi 20 Pradipat Road.
I had my mobile phone on hand with Google maps loaded ready with the directions and the address written in Thai for the driver. He waived all these away and was sure of where he was going. I offered again but no no no he wasn’t having any of it. So we agreed on a price and we went.
Soon as he made his first turn I knew he had gone wrong but once again he wasn’t going to listen.
I had time to spare and thought I would go along for the ride and while sitting there cool off in the breeze and take in some sights. As you will see the driver took me on more or less a big circle.
Check Google maps with the road names and you will see.
He did not get the fair he thought he was getting at the end of the journey!
So beware of some tuk-tuk drivers and if you can check something like Google maps to make sure you are being taken where you want to go using the best route.
