In Menton, travelers should be cautious of pickpocketing, especially in crowded areas like markets and train stations. Avoid unlicensed taxi services and be wary of street vendors offering overpriced goods or services. Staying alert in busy tourist spots and securing personal belongings helps ensure a safe visit.
Pack lightweight, versatile clothing suitable for the destination's climate, and use secure, lockable luggage to protect belongings.
