Kaunas is a generally safe, foreigner-friendly city with low violent crime. Typical tourist issues are overpriced unlicensed airport taxis, poor exchange rates at central booths, and unvalidated transport tickets. Use the official taxi rank at the airport, the official ticket options, and pay by card where possible.

Kaip tai veikia: Drivers approach passengers inside or just outside the terminal offering rides without a meter and with inflated flat rates, sometimes claiming the official rank is closed or prices are fixed higher.
Kaip to išvengti: Walk to the official taxi rank or book through a licensed app like Bolt or Uber. Agree on a price or verify the meter before departure.
Kaip tai veikia: Exchange booths near central squares advertise attractive rates but apply large commissions or poor mid-market spreads, especially on small or cash transactions.
Kaip to išvengti: Use bank ATMs for cash or pay by card. If exchanging, compare the effective rate with the day's official rate before handing over money.
Kaip tai veikia: Tickets bought on board or via the app must be validated as you travel. Inspectors issue on-the-spot fines to passengers without a valid, validated ticket.
Kaip to išvengti: Buy and validate before boarding using the official ticket app or on-board validator. Keep your ticket accessible during the ride.
Kaip tai veikia: In busy areas, groups may bump, ask for directions, or create a distraction while a partner lifts a wallet or phone from a bag or pocket.
Kaip to išvengti: Keep bags closed and in front, wallets out of back pockets, and stay alert in crowds and at station entry points.
Kaip tai veikia: Rarely, tourist-oriented venues add unrequested service or cover charges or present a bill with items not ordered, relying on tourists not checking.
Kaip to išvengti: Review the full bill before paying and question any line you did not order. A stated menu price should match the charge.
Kaip tai veikia: ATMs and card terminals offer to charge in your home currency at a poor rate instead of euros, adding an unnecessary markup on withdrawals and purchases.
Kaip to išvengti: Always select to be charged in euros and decline the conversion offered on the screen or terminal.

Kaunas International Airport (KUN)
Tinkama taksi kaina (oficiali, dieną): 25 € - 35 €. Use the official taxi rank or a licensed app such as Bolt or Uber. Unlicensed drivers may approach inside the terminal; decline them. Confirm the fare or meter before starting.
Geriausia alternatyva: Airport bus to the city centre (2 €, apie 20 min)
Arbatpinigiai: Optional and appreciated for good service, usually rounding up in restaurants, cafes, and taxis. No mandatory percentage applies.
Vietos ir aptarnavimo mokesčiai: Cover or service charges are not commonly added in Kaunas. Check your bill for added fees; a menu without displayed prices is unusual and worth avoiding.
Always choose to be charged in euros and decline dynamic currency conversion offered by the ATM. Prefer ATMs attached to major banks. Watch for high-fee independent ATM brands and check the fee prompt before confirming.
