Koh Samui doesn't have a very well-developed public transportation system, so motorbikes and cars on rent are the preferred option for tourists. It costs around TBH 150-200 to rent a motorbike or TBH 600-800 for a jeep per day. You can also get around the island in a yellow and red taxi or songthaews which are open shared taxis. Songthaews are easy to spot, and the prices start from TBH 40. Alternatively, download the NaviGo App which is the equivalent of Ola or Uber in Koh Samui.
