Mr Chris got the idea when visiting Thailand. He describes the tuk-tuk riding night in Bangkok as an unforgettable experience. When moving to Liberia seven years ago, he saw how the Keke business is working and helping the inner city transportation system. In 2019, he ended up living in The Gambia somehow by mistake, and he noticed that many people are waiting for transport, especially in rush hours. After spending few months in the country, doing market research and getting used to the system, he decided to start the tuk-tuk business to bring something good to the country and its people. He shipped in the parts for the first vehicle in November 2019, and together with the team, they assembled the first vehicle.
There are many benefits of choosing tuk-tuk as a transport service. It is faster, and it is easier to get in and out. You always feel the nice breeze. It is more flexible and even more comfortable than other vehicles used in public transport, yet the price is the same; D8 per shared trip on the standard routes. The three-wheelers are designed for six passengers. You can take the tuk-tuk from Kotu to Serrekunda, Dippa Garage or Westfield.
As Mr Chris says, tuk-tuks are meant to serve people. But in Thailand, this mean of transport became a real tourist attraction. There you can even rent your own tuk-tuk to explore around the town. He feels it can be the same in The Gambia. Mr Chris is already discussing with some hotels to provide tuk-tuk service in organising the trips which would add to the experience when exploring the country.
