Survival Guide
Dealing with Touts
Touts occasionally hang around popular places promoting guest houses and tour services Avoid all of them. Follow your maps or ask your hotel front desk for advice before going out.
Transportation Tips
Avoid rides offered by drivers of private transportation. Use PickMe the local taxi-hailing app. There are plenty of tuk-tuk’s cars and vans around to be booked from PickMe
Accommodation Guidance
Book hotels through reputable travel agents or popular online websites
Shopping Awareness
Local shops selling souvenirs without a marked price might increase the real price for a tourist. Bargain and walk away if you’re not happy. It’s a must for restaurants and pubs/ bars to display the price of that they sell. If they don’t then that’s a sign to walk away.
Seeking Assistance
f you need help or directions, pop into a shop, guest house or restaurant and ask as there will be someone there who speaks English and the staff aren’t touts.
Water Consumption
Avoid drinking tap water. Water bottles are cheap (500ml Rs50 750ml Rs100- 150)
