Typowe oszustwa w Sinaia, Romania i jak ich unikać

TaksówkaBucharest Henri Coanda airport arrivals, Sinaia train station

1. Airport taxi overcharging

Jak to działa: Unlicensed drivers outside Bucharest airport or at Sinaia station quote inflated flat rates, especially for the long trip to Sinaia. Some run meters that are tampered with or take longer routes.

Jak tego uniknąć: Use the official airport taxi rank or a booking app. Confirm the price before departing and refuse drivers who will not agree to a clear fare.

2. Poor exchange rates at booths

Jak to działa: Exchange booths near tourist areas advertise attractive rates but apply hidden commissions or give a lower effective rate. Some use fine print or count out notes quickly.

Jak tego uniknąć: Use bank ATMs for cash in RON instead of exchange counters. If you must exchange, compare the rate on the spot and count your notes.
