tuk tuks are great fun and a trip on a local bus is a must as well :)

And you will have to try the free ferry over to Panjim, it is an experience not to be missed.

There is a website in the UK which is selling Tuk-Tuks :D I often look and think....have I got the bottle to ride round my little town in one of those. :shock:
Apparently they are selling very well in the UK as taxi vechicles.
I think deep down, I really want one. :D

They could be the next BIG thing in the Uk.....are they kinder to the enviroment?
Last time we were in one in Goa, I had to balance on the right hand side so the reserve tank could be drained to its last ounce :shock:
Nice driver....big hair - always around Candolim.

:lol: :lol: One year we used the same tuk tuk for all our trips to Morjim etc. He'd put the most enormous speaker....not a normal car speaker but one for a hi-fi that stood about 3ft high!!!, lying on its side wedged behind the back seat :shock: :shock: You could hear us coming along the road for miles around!!! :lol:

This is a serious question. How many passengers would be considered safe in a tuk-tuk? I use the word "safe" reservedly. :lol:
