GrabTaxi,
a regional on-demand transport mobile app, has launched its latest partnering service in Phuket, Thailand. Offering a
premium and personalised ride experience, GrabCar aims to make commuting
in Phuket hassle-free especially for tourists who visit Phuket.
Tourists can book a GrabCar and will be picked up at their
doorstep in minutes, allowing them to explore the sights and sounds of
Phuket safely and conveniently with a few taps on their smartphones.
As
GrabCar operates on the same mobile platform as GrabTaxi, it ensures a
seamless commuting experience for users. The same app can also be used
in five other countries; Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, the Philippines
and Vietnam, so travellers can expect consistency in the service.
GrabCar patrons will be ferried in premium cars such as a Mercedes-Benz, Toyota
Camry, Nissan Teana or Honda Accord. GrabCar is also the only mobile app-based service to offer advanced
bookings. Passengers can book a premium car up to two hours and
no more than seven days in advance, which is especially popular for
rides to the airport.
"GrabTaxi and its new partnering service GrabCar brings peace of mind and convenience to users. These two aspects are particularly important for tourists looking to have memorable holidays in Phuket. With GrabCar, they have an efficient, and a quick and convenient way of getting around safely," said Phuket Governor Nisit Jansomwong. "I hope that all green plate taxi drivers will join GrabCar to offer quality service."
