Tourist Trap: The men working as local...
  • Tip Rating:
  • The men working as local guides may offer to negotiate prices for you. This happened to me and i ended up being 'ripped off' for camera hire (the camera broke after one day and ruined the photos i had taken) I later found out that i had paid way over the odds and instead of getting me a good price the guide had actually been negotiating a cut for himself!
