MIND YOUR MONEY

  1. Make arrangements to store your excess
    cash, passport and other valuables in the
    safe in your accommodation.
  2. Don’t carry all your money together.
    If travelling as a couple or in a group,
    split the money between you.
  3. Don’t carry more money with you than you
    intend to spend.
  4. If you have to carry excess cash and
    valuables always use a discreet money
    belt inside your clothing.
  5. Be careful when withdrawing money from
    cash machines.

CAR SAFETY

    inside a parked car.

    car in one of the controlled car parks and
    retain the parking ticket on your person.

    unattended, even for brief periods.

    always ask about secure car parking.

OUT AND ABOUT
