1) When taking taxis from the airport to the hotel, travel by taxi to the airport more expensive and make sure that the drivers have official identification. Never take a taxi waiting outside the airport perimeter.
I know this may sound exaggerated, but it is much better to be safe then sorry.
2) If from your hotel to the airport, go with a taxi recommended by the hotel. Once again, a taxi can be very dangerous. I can not say that enough.
3) Do not look for in a new town or city too late at night.
This can not go wrong in a number of ways. It 'much easier to maintain control during the day and night security in some areas is just horrible.
4) Travel in groups if possible.
Since when many trains are not a good idea?
5) Learn the basics of the local language before you arrive. Do not expect that people who speak English.
English is widely spoken in these days, but want to be sure. You should always check these things before your arrival.
6) Keep your valuables.
A money belt is great if it is an option that you are willing to consider. There are many different types of money belt. One of the most popular is the "shoulder" portfolio style on a belt that were under the top. This makes it very difficult for a thief to be with the valuables.
Ruins 7) Do not go it alone in remote areas / where tourists can pretend to do. Questions or take a local guide.
8) You can avoid reading the manual and talking with other tourists for the better, too.
9) When leaving discos late at night, take a taxi home, no matter how close their hostel. The outside of the clubs will find a street vendor selling cigarettes. Normally people all drivers of taxis and ensure that you can know to recommend.
10) If you hold a new city, the original plan and stay at the hotel of your choice. Do not let the taxi driver to convince you that your hostel is fully booked and who knows, a cheaper and better. Will work on commission, and the hostel is not likely to be in a secure area of the city.
11) Best yet to come, train / train in a new city, try the hotel to book in advance, preferably with a hotel that has an airport / station collection service.
12) Do not wear expensive jewelry are looking for.
13) In public transport, you compress the day with you at all times, preferably with the straps around the legs or luggage locks. Buses will go into backpack rule out, if the roof or in the external luggage compartments. On long-distance buses ask for a receipt for the luggage. Short trips only be vigilant when the bus stops to off-load bags. In case your bags stolen, stay with the bus - you will probably need an explanation of the bus company responsible for the loss of money from your insurance claim.
14) leave your valuables in the hotel for excursions or longer stays. Obtain a receipt not just for the money belt / wallet etc. but for its content, each item listed.
Sign 15) If you must leave your passport and credit cards together, insert the card in a sealed envelope and your name on the door. In this way, when you return, we know that nothing has changed.
16) If the design is currently in market areas, crowded streets, fiestas etc. do not go to all your valuables. Leaving the hotel. If you intend to buy something too expensive to keep your money safe in a money belt. Try to be discreet when it opens! In order to protect the loose change in your pocket you can stuff a handkerchief in after.
17) If the sidewalks are completed, particularly in market areas, walk down the street.
18) If you suspect that someone you pursue, stop and look into his eyes until he goes. If you're feeling really bad for a place, go with your first instincts and leave. Reduce case is rare these days, but for greater security, you can wear your backpack on his chest.
19) If you try again to work without interruption. If you feel need to stop lots of weight slightly from side to side, so that if someone can tamper with them.
20) When you implement your bag on the floor, thinking about a picture or simply sitting in a cafe, remember to put one foot in the strap. Not only is it impossible without forgetting either! This is the most common form of theft - not to ask the pockets of tourists in the cafes and the return, if anyone has seen, said, you guessed it, he left.
