  • The Metro is widely known for pickpockets and can even by dangerous if travelling alone at night. Best to travel with others and during the daytime. Also keep your passport, money, and other belongings in front pocket or in one of the waste pockets. Avoid carrying purses as there are many purse snatchers and never put anything in your back pocket as pick pockets frequently target this.
