Common scams include counterfeit tickets for attractions and fake charity collectors. Staying aware of surroundings and using official transportation and ticket vendors helps reduce risks.
Pack lightweight, versatile clothing suitable for the destination's climate, and use secure, lockable luggage to protect belongings.
