Nuotrauką padarė Renata Meneses Pexels.com

Rio de Janeiro is a spectacular city but requires street-smart behavior. Violent crime rates are a real concern, especially in certain areas, and tourists should stay alert in crowded spots and on the beach. The main risks for visitors are opportunistic theft, overpriced or rigged taxis, and money-related traps, so use official transport and keep valuables minimal.

Dažniausios apgavystės Rio de Janeiro, Brazil ir kaip jų išvengti

Gatvės sukčiavimasCopacabana and Ipanema beaches, crowded buses, city center streets

1. Beach and crowd theft

Kaip tai veikia: Thieves work in groups on Copacabana and Ipanema beaches, grabbing phones, bags, and jewelry while people sleep, swim, or are distracted. Snatch-and-run on streets and buses is also common.

Kaip to išvengti: Leave passports and valuables at your hotel. Take only cash and an inexpensive phone to the beach, and keep items in front of you.

3. Unlicensed airport drivers

Kaip tai veikia: Drivers without official markings approach travelers inside or just outside the terminal with flat 'special' prices well above the meter rate. Some claim the official rank is closed or far away.

Kaip to išvengti: Walk past unsolicited offers and use only the official taxi rank at the terminal exit. Uber and 99 through their apps are also reliable.

4. Poor-rate exchange kiosks

Kaip tai veikia: Exchange booths in tourist areas advertise eye-catching rates but add large commissions, effective spreads, or minimum fees, leaving you well below the market rate. Some are street changers with fake notes.

Kaip to išvengti: Use bank ATMs for cash and decline conversion at the terminal. Compare the effective rate including fees before exchanging.

5. Inflated or double-charged bills

Kaip tai veikia: Some restaurants in tourist zones add extra items, round up totals, or present a bill with an odd service line. Bills can be handwritten and hard to verify, especially in busy venues.

Kaip to išvengti: Check every line of the bill, confirm the total and whether serviço is included before paying. Question any item you did not order.
