It's best to order a tuk-tuk through the PickMe or Uber apps. This way, you immediately see the fixed price of the trip and avoid disputes with drivers. If you hail a tuk-tuk on the street, be sure to agree on the price in advance and make sure the driver understands the amount for the entire trip, not per kilometer or per person. Almost no one uses meters, so bargaining is appropriate. The average price starts from 250 rupees (about 66 rubles). Avoid suspicious offers like 'all day for 2000 rupees'βthis is often a scam involving stops at shops.
