Tuk Tuk is a very typical vehicle in some parts of Asia. It is considered a classical form of public transportation and part of our everyday street scene. It is the three-wheeled, slightly ratty-looking vehicle, the TukTuk, dubbed in honor of its typical crackling two-stroke engine noise. You can sit and stretch out. You will be protected from the sun and rain by the flap and get a great breeze as you zip along. The ride is safe and comfortable with a little excitement.
