Tourist Trap: We were out walking one day...
  • Tip Rating:
  • We were out walking one day when we were stopped by a young guy and asked if we would like to see a new born baby just around the corner, we went with him and he took us down back alleys way off the main road, When we got to the house the 'new' baby was about 6 months old-what they wanted was us to give them some money, which we did to politely get away.

    Tourist Trap: Some hotel guests had been out...
  • Tip Rating:
  • Some hotel guests had been out fishing and caught this beautiful Stingray fish (I think that is what it is called) the local fishermen hung it up and it was over an hour before the poor thing died.
