In a situation like Noel experienced with the Uber, I would recommend anyone to just grab a bellhop or a receptionist from the hotel or with any authority and ask for help with the Uber driver or any similar scammer. They would undoubtedly sort the guy out and send him on his way. Vast majority of people would gladly help a tourist from being scammed.
@jesuschrist6911 ай бұрын
When possible, just don't put your bags in the trunk of a cab / uber. If Noel didn't have his bag in the trunk, the driver wouldn't have as much power in the scam. If he left the car to get help, the driver would probably just have stolen his bag thinking there was a good payday there since Noel doesn't look like a hobo.

You were fortunate that he finally accepted the rate, Noel. This illustrates the risks of booking a taxi or even an Uber. You were lucky to arrive at your destination. Some taxi drivers engage in scams by driving to a remote area, then canceling the ride and demanding a higher price. If you refuse to pay, they may force you out of the taxi. I experienced this as a teenager in Zambia. Back then, there were no Ubers, but the driver stopped midway and abruptly increased the fare. This occurred in a dubious part of Lusaka, so I had no choice but to pay. He stated it was either pay the higher price or leave the taxi. In foreign countries, there are numerous ways to get scammed.

This was just a few years ago, but when I was in Australia, I found the transportation good. The trams in the CBD of Sydney and Melbourne ran well. I took a few trains a bit outside of that area too, and it was fine. Everything was clean and ran smooth. Also took Australia’s Greyhound(Not the same as the U.S., but name is licensed out). Took this from Sydney to a stop somewhere high up the north east coast(forgot the name atm but it was before Whitsunday’s). Making multiple stops(on/ off type of bus) was no really issue. The cost was definitely not as cheap as the above,lol and the Wi-Fi was basically non existent), but it was clean enough for carrying mostly backpackers up the coast. Not as comfortable as it could of been but not as rough as a city bus seat would be. Even the planes were good. I missed a flight by accident and they got me on the next one with no issues and no extra charge! That I found amazing. Maybe things have changed in the past few years, I’m not sure, but I’m from right outside NYC, and have been riding trains and buses all my life. Not just here, but other major cities and in my smaller area. I felt quite comfortable and safe on the Aussie transport. It came decently on time too. Just my experience 😉✌️

The stop after 1 hour at Kalar Kalhar is a time ticket given to buses so that they do not speed their way down and reach within the allocated time. That is a safety check by Motorway police.

I see people focusing on Uber than a wonderful buss. By the way, taxi scam in Pakistan is very very rare. One bad apple doesn't represent the majority.

Hi Noel. Loved your bus ride. Noel, hope you will visit the northern areas and in particular the hunza valley. Hunza valley has one of the highest literacy rate so I hear. It would be so nice for you to show us the valley.
