Taxis in Phu Quoc

Short rides around the center are often as easy as turning your hand when you can wave a taxi or call a technology car. But if you are thinking of traveling across the island, traveling to remote areas or looking for a car at the end of the night, everything needs to be prepared more carefully. Agreeing in advance on the price, waiting time of the driver, and the route back are the secret to a smooth trip.

How to prepare?

Around Duong Dong, you just carelessly surf the ride-hailing application. But whenever you intend to travel from South to North, catch a flight at dawn or need a car to be on duty through many stops, clearly agree in advance on the amount, waiting time and return plan. When the car is waiting for you to arrive, don't rush to step on; glance at the license plate, confirm the driver's name and compare the appointment location on the app to make sure you don't get on the wrong car.

Situations to keep in mind

Having an app on your phone does not mean that you always click on a driver to pick up the pickup, especially in remote areas or at peak hours when customers are pouring into the street. A pickup that requires a stop at many stations will have a different way of calculating the fare than running a circuit to the destination. Comparing fares is only really meaningful when you have clarified all the surcharges for waiting time and pick-up points.

Before you go

Pin down exactly every millimeter of pick-up and drop-off points.
Frankly ask the price and accompanying conditions if the car has to wait in many places.
Once you have traveled far from the center, you must always calculate the back route to call a car back.
Absolutely do not step on cars with license plates or drivers that do not match the information on the application.
