Koh Samui transport options
Getting around Samui
Scooter and motorbike
We’re not fans. Though popular with both locals and tourists, scooters are a main contributor to Samui’s road accident rate.
Songthaew ("song-tao")
A public pick-up truck on a vaguely set route. Hop on & off these trucks as they circle the island ring road. Agree on the price first.
(50-100THB depending on the distance)
Taxi
Set a rate in advance as, despite appearances, meters are not used.
(200-400 THB)
Hire car
Renting a Samui hire car is a brilliant way to see the island.
Walking
Our Choeng Mon villa is just 10 minutes' walk from Choeng Mon beach and town.
