Beware of overpriced gondola rides and unauthorized street vendors selling counterfeit goods. Scams involving unofficial water taxis charging excessive fares are also common. Always use official ticket counters and licensed services to avoid these issues.
Pack lightweight, versatile clothing suitable for the destination's climate, and use secure, lockable luggage to protect belongings.
