Base yourself near Essential Core if you only have 1-2 days.

Use official public transport, licensed taxis, or established ride-booking services where available; confirm the fare before an unmetered journey.

Group nearby sights into the same day and consider a licensed driver or organised excursion for spread-out day trips.

Start outdoor sightseeing early for better light, lower heat, and fewer crowds.

Keep a small amount of local currency for tickets, markets, parking, and places that do not accept cards.

Confirm the final transfer and late-arrival options with your accommodation before travel.
