Safety Tips:

  • Be aware of your surroundings: Pay attention to your belongings and avoid distractions.
  • Choose reputable transport options: Opt for well-known bus companies or recognized taxi services.
  • Avoid late-night travel: While it's generally safe, it's advisable to avoid traveling alone late at night.
  • Trust your instincts: If you feel uncomfortable in a situation, remove yourself from it.

Specific Considerations:

  • Buses: While buses are a common mode of transport, they can be crowded and chaotic. Be cautious when boarding and alighting.
  • Trains: Trains are generally safer, but it's advisable to avoid peak hours when they can be overcrowded.
  • Tuk-Tuks: While convenient, some tuk-tuk drivers may try to overcharge tourists.
