In Sarajevo, travelers should be cautious of pickpocketing, especially in crowded areas and public transport. Avoid unlicensed taxi services to prevent overcharging. Be wary of street vendors selling counterfeit goods or offering unsolicited help, which can sometimes lead to scams. Always use official exchange offices to avoid unfavorable rates or hidden fees.
