Thailand·CautionThe taxi without a meter
How it works
Taxis refuse to use the meter and offer a fixed price (always inflated). This is illegal but very common, especially from airports and tourist areas.
Field advice
Insist on the meter ("meter, please") or use Grab (the Uber equivalent in Southeast Asia).
