Petty theft, especially in crowded areas like markets and public transport, is also a concern. It's advisable to use metered taxis or reputable ride services, agree on prices beforehand, and remain vigilant in busy tourist spots. Additionally, avoid accepting help from strangers when navigating attractions to reduce the risk of being targeted.

Keep essential items like travel documents, medication, and valuables in a carry-on bag for easy access. Use packing organizers or cubes to maximize space and maintain order. Lastly, include a small first aid kit and personal hygiene items for added comfort during travel.
