Things can be a lot more fun than just lazing on the beach sipping cocktails or enjoying the fabulous in-house facilities of your hotel. With the many sights to see and places to be explored, your vacation can also be a great adventure and to do this you will need to know how to get around. But fear not, because transportation in Koh Samui is well geared and inexpensive.
All the island’s main roads are cement so you can travel safely, but dirt roads are still there for those ready to conquer them on off-road and quad bikes which are available for rent. The most important message we have for you is that if you rent a scooter or motorbike is to be extra careful. The steep hills and winding roads can be treacherous, often covered in loose sand and not mentioning other foreign road users with no idea of how to ride the bike which they probably rented without a license.
