I flew back yesterday after 4 days in Chiang Mai and 5 days in Phuket. The taxi drivers in Phuket are now hiking up their prices, I was quoted 1,000baht just for 3 hours of driving around and this was from several different guys. When I tried to knock them down, they all said the same thing "Gasoline too expensive now".

Funny thing is, the prices are the same for gas in Chiang Mai, but the taxis, tuk-tuks etc are much cheaper.
