Racing through the streets of Bangkok on a Tuk-Tuk ride

Travelling to Bangkok and not taking a Tuk-Tuk ride is like travelling to London and not experiencing the Underground.

In exchange for a few coins, you step aboard what can only be described as a motorised Rickshaw and your driver will treat you to the most exciting form of public transport you will have ever experienced.

Like a real life game of Cat and Mouse your Tuk-Tuk scurries through the traffic seeking the quickest route to your destination. Hold on to your seat as you weave through back streets and don't be surprised if your driver offers to take you t his brothers shop en-route to purchase souvenir's.

You arrive at your destination safe in the knowledge that if you had taken a cab you would have arrived atleast ten minutes later.
