Transportation On Koh Chang |
Koh Chang is a big island, and though it is gorgeous to stroll along the beach or go on planned hiking trails, getting from one point to another will see some distance and steep hills to be kept in mind. Scooters, the 1st choice of transport on Koh Chang for tourists, can be rented for 200-300 baht per day from basically any Koh Chang resort.
Renting a small jeep is also a good option for transport on Koh Chang, especially when you want to tour around the island and explore the sights it has to offer. Jeeps are able to negotiate terrain a scooter or taxi would not necessarily be able to. Find out from your beach resort in Koh Chang if they rent scooters.
Another way of getting from A to B cheap and quickly is by Songthaew taxi. These pick-up trucks, modified to carry passengers with two rows of benches fitted in the back and a canopy on top and open at the sides, travel up and down the west coast. If you want to travel east however, you will need your own wheels, jeep or scooter. |
