trishaws

Three-wheeled cycle taxis

Trishaws are three-wheeled vehicles used for transporting passengers, typically pedaled or motorized by a driver.

Common in Southeast Asia, they function as bicycle rickshaws—a seat for passengers attached to a cycle.

We hired a trishaw to tour the old quarter of George Town.
