Safety intelligence
Common tourist traps at major ports — and the exact countermeasure for each.
Naples
Unlicensed taxis at terminal
Use the official white taxi rank only. Insist on meter.
Rome
Fake official guides near Colosseum
Book skip-the-line online before you arrive — or skip it.
Barcelona
Pickpockets on La Rambla
Leave valuables on ship. Use front pocket or crossbody.
Santorini
Overpriced donkey photos near cable car
Walk past quickly. They will follow briefly then stop.
Athens
Distraction theft at Monastiraki
Keep bag in front. Avoid anyone who "drops" something.
Dubrovnik
Unofficial "city wall" ticket sellers
Buy only at official wall entrance booths.
