  1. Aeon to prince is really around $1.00 , these tuktuk sometimes can make customer orpassenger angry. they take advantage of the chinese specially those who dont speak english.
    and they do that in purpose to start fight. I saw a tuktuk passapp, the woman pay her $1 and he grab money from the woman another $1. 00

    If tuktuk in cambodia behave like this, that will shoo the foreigners away.

  2. This tuktuk driver looks like an asshole. I think I might have rode his tuktuk once.
    He really kind of annoying one. He will say ok for the fare, when you get off he wants you pay more
    or hDKGe will cause serious fight.

  3. Passapp is getting more drivers that are idiot, ignorant, dont know how to do business , and dont even know how to use map as gps.

    I suggest these kinds of drivers can hurt foreigners, harmful to women, unfriendly to tourist
    and dangerous to everyone. GET THEM OUT OF THE ROAD… AND DO FARM.
