Once again ~ annually in fact ~ I must do my part for my old man and do a little flogging of his business on this Gentleman's Board. I assure you ... you will only see this post once (besides the bumping replies provide).
High season in Thailand starts around the beginning of November, so this post at this time seems appropriate.
The man in question ~ the genial and courteous Mr Suphot-of-Surin-&-Hua Hin ~ has a taxi / tour guide business which he has on offer to all on the Board ~ and all folks in fact, gay dudes being only a minority fraction of the total ~ to take him up on the invitation and opportunity of enjoying a guided tour of Thailand's pleasures (you choose your definition of 'pleasures' and decide wherever you'd like to find them).
He has acquired a new vehicle this year which much improves the comfort of your journey ... in the main because the back seat is now a 'full' regular seat rather than the cramped half-seat of the old truck. The wheels are also bigger and wider and the suspension more robust, giving a more plush ride overall.
THE THINGS HE CAN DO FOR YOU:
- He can pick you up at the airport and bring you to Hua Hin.[/*:m:213evo8d]
- He can take you back to the airport (if you are going there from Hua Hin & environs).[/*:m:213evo8d]
- He can pick you up anywhere, and then take you anywhere.[/*:m:213evo8d]
- He can take you on long trips (i.e. overnighters) or short.[/*:m:213evo8d]
- He can be your guide, or just wait around for you to sightsee on your own.[/*:m:213evo8d]
- He can guide you into the dark and erotic bowels of Bangkok.[/*:m:213evo8d]
- He can guide you through 'tourist' Bangkok or 'wherever'.[/*:m:213evo8d]
- He can guide you through up country Khymer temples, back country isaan roads, rarely visited towns along the Mekong ..... yada yada yada.[/*:m:213evo8d]
- Basically wherever your Thailand adventure calls for a little more personal experience.[/*:m:213evo8d]
- He speaks quite fluent English.[/*:m:213evo8d]
- Boardies get a discount![/*:m:213evo8d]
- Sorry, 'extras' will not happen. :cyclopsani: [/*:m:213evo8d]
This is the vehicle, a Toyota Vigo 4-door diesel: Very comfy passenger seat & back seats, lots of leg room, full aircon, and a quite impressive sound system. Passengers can watch movies or listen to their favourite CD's or DVD's.
The back seat is big enough for two big farang plus a small Thai, 5 small Thais (LOL), 3 medium-boned farangs, or any combination thereof.
Luggage can easily be loaded into the backseat if only two customers are engaged, or, if more than two, it can be safely stored in the truck's box as it car comes with a top quality waterproof cover (shown rolled-up in the photo below).

And this is the driver: Mr Suphot is a mature, 40-year old Thai man from Surin Province. He speaks very good English, and will drive as you ask him ... stop where and when you want him to stop ... speed up and slow down as you'd like it. His passengers' safety and happiness are his main concerns.
Prices for the 'taxi' part of the service is held a bit below regular taxi prices in Hua Hin: for instance, nowadays the regular price from HH to Suvarnaphumi Airport (or vice versa) is 2000 baht. He'll do it for 1800 baht.
Prices for day trips throughout Hua Hin and environs are along the same idea ... slightly below the rate of other services, but that can also depend on how long you wish him to stay out with you.
Prices for long, multi-day guided tours include the customer paying the cost of fuel, meals, and accommodations (where necessary), plus a daily stipend (negotiable within reason, in advance).
Anyone interested in such an adventure can PM me on the Board (or email me at << dnl7748@gmail.com >> and we can discuss details.
