Motorcycle taxi
If you see a group of motorcycle riders with a pink vest, you are in the right place!
Motorcycle taxis are one of the popular forms of transportation in Thailand. Not only in Chiang Mai, but you will also find the motorcycle taxi services in every big city such as Bangkok, Pattaya, Phuket, Hua Hin, and etc. The riders in different areas will wear different colors of the vest. The vest of Chiang Mai riders is bright pink.
The motorcycle taxi is different from the normal taxi, Rot Daeng, or Tuk Tuk because the riders will not ride along the streets looking for a passenger. They instead gather in a group at the motorcycle taxi station. If you want to take a ride, you have to go to their stop, tell them the destination point, and negotiate for the price.
You can find the motorcycle station at the major spots of the city such as Arcade Transport, Chang Phueak Bus Terminal, and Vieng Pink.
