Bratislava Warnings and Dangers: 56 reviews and 26 photos

Pickpockets

It is really very unpleasant situation when someone steals you money especially if you're on holiday. I should kill someone if it happened to me... Be carefull wherever you go especially when you will see larger group of Gipsies. They already have their developed tactics how to catch your attention and then they will take your money. Beware when there is a big qurrell around you or if they are too close to you, crowded places are especially successful. When something like this happened to you there is little chance to get back your money because they are organized and wallets are going from hand to hand so no policeman can prove the crime. Be careful. Don't take this tip like racistic... it has nothing to do with it, it's pure reality in city...

Slovak banknotes - Bratislava

Slovak banknotes

Money

Just a simple advise ;) Never exchange money in the streets, it is definitely unsure if you will get the right banknotes :) and how much. There is an exchange office in every simple bank (and Bratislava has them as the whole Switzerland LOL ) so exchange them in the exchange offices and banks. Try to surf more banks before exchange there should be a little difference in the amount of money you can get.

well, take grandfather's car if possible ;) or the ugliest car available. There can happen your nice car can be stolen. Then when buying stuff in shops, take care if the prices are the same as written or seen before and you pay the right amount of money.
