Unfortunately, this also attracts scammers and those wanting to make money out of unsuspecting tourists. Below is a list of the less glamorous side of Prague. DO NOT exchange currency on the street. It will always be a con — fake money, old notes or a distraction in an attempt to rob you.
Then compare this to the mid market exchange rate on Google or ex. This rate will give you a benchmark of what the exchange rate should be. The poorer the rate is, the more commission the exchange bureau has added.
There are so many different taxi scams in Prague. Other scams include — giving you change in Russian roubles they look similar to the Czech Koruna or taking you to the wrong hotel e. The Europa hotel, instead of Europe hotel and then charging you an extra fee to drive to the correct hotel.
Prague has Uber which gives you an estimate of the price before you get in and if anything dodgy happens — like they take you on a longer route, you can send a message to Uber and try and get it refunded.
These are so many pink and green florescent Thai massage parlours in Prague. Others double as beauty bars where you can get a pedicure and your nails done. Most Thai massage parlours are dotted around the Old Town with a rickshaw outside and tourists sitting in the window having their feet nibbled by fish.
