Answer
Thailand is a fairly easy country to get around. We recommend all of our guests download the GRAB app on their phones which is Thailand's version of Uber. Rides typically cost between $1-3 dollars US. On the other hand, if you have a motorcycle license you can rent your own motorcycle for $6-8 US per day or a car for $20-30/day. We urge that you exercise caution when driving and make sure you have your international license.
