Getting Around

Getting around in town is pretty easy. (Now you can get the map of Trang's town from this site.) Trang town is quite small that you can get from one place to the other place in town by walking. It's recommended, however, that you try hiring a "Tuk-Tuk"  once (at least to get to your accommodation when you first arrive)  to complete your trip. Another good way to get around is by renting a motorbike 

Tuk - Tuk

As Trang is characterized by a lot of khuans, it is undoubtedly inconvenient to get around by walking only. As a result, vehicles with engine are an alternate here. Trang's "Tuk-Tuks" are motor vehicles which has three wheels and a strang pig shape with lound noise, used as taxies. They are available everywhere in town and are completely different from Tuk-Tuks in other part of Thailand. Many people have tried to introduce some other kinds of vehicle to replace this funny pig-shape Tuk-Tuk, but have failed because nobody cared to use new transportation system. They are accustomed to using Tuk-Tuk and know that it is one part of life in Trang.

Motorbike

If you are going to stay in town, getting around by motorbike is a recommended experience. With a motorbike, you can easily make one-day trip to several waterfalls nearby on your own. Riding motorbike in Trang is an unforgetable experience. To rent one, stop by at a drug store (Thai Pharmacy) on Rama 6 Rd. with a sign 'Motorbike for Rent' in front for the most  famous motorbike rental service in town. Mr. Sukit, the store owner and one of TrangOnline co-founder, will be happy to help you finding a suitable motorbike and traveling information. Although he is the only one who speak English, you will find that other persons there will friendly speak broken English with you.
