The tricycle is basically the Philippine rickshaw: a little, roofed sidecar bolted to a motorbike or, less often, a bicycle. Both kinds of tricycles are painted colorfully, as are jeepneys. During elections campaign posters usually plaster many of the tricycles. Tricycles sometimes are locally made, but larger companies, such as Fitcor Marketing, manufacture passenger tricycles, Tricycles are found in their various forms nearly everywhere and are useful – essential even – for short trips. In many areas, they can also be rented by the hour for around P100.
The flat fare around town is usually P5 per passenger; for longer trips around town, you will be charged at least double this figure. Note that this is the rate that locals pay. In some towns you can get away with paying the local rate; in many tourist areas, however, your chances of getting such a rate range from slim to nonexistent. In these areas, drivers of motorised tricycles will routinely quote P150 – especially if night is fast approaching and/or the trip involves unsealed roads. Locals would pay a fraction of this price, so feel free to haggle.
Tricycles are often garishly done up in the mode of a jeepney, and you’ll likely hear one before you see one from the noise of the smoke-belching two-stroke engine
