“ When I arrived at the new bus station or the second bus station, asked uncle what the price was. Uncle said that 200 baht each. We were shocked. What is this expensive? So I asked the uncle if he could negotiate the price for 100 baht per person, but he said that he couldn’t. therefore reluctant to pay the fare At that moment I thought the price is too expensive and recently traveled to Udon Thani for the first time. The fare for a tricycle is similar to the train fare traveling from Lop Buri. I would like to leave it to the relevant agencies. Help take care of the fare on the Skylab tricycle in Udon Thani province. Shouldn’t take advantage of customers like this And don’t take chances with foreigners who travel or pass by buses in Udon Thani and tell your uncle that Don’t overcharge your passengers.

Mr. Taweesilp, Golden Cup, 70th Anniversary, Skylab Tricycle for hire In front of Udon Thani train station revealed that when he saw the clip, he didn’t feel good at all. A colleague in the same profession shouldn’t charge that kind of fare. Usually, they have a fixed price, for example, the second bus station will have a set price. If you come alone, the price will be 80-100 baht. If you have items, it will be another price. Do not take advantage of others. I myself knew in my heart how much the fare from here to there is. Doing this will damage everything. say in the Isan language that One fish is completely rotten.
