If you are approached on the street by someone offering good rates for your dollars/euros etc - just walk away. Also, be careful when using the ATM machines, make sure nobody is looking over your shoulder

The commission these places charge is absolutely disgraceful. I never tried to change travellers cheques or draw money at an ATM but it can't be as expensive as using one of the exchange bureaus. Only use them as a last resort. Leave a Comment

if you do change your money at the licensed dealers PLEASE PLEASE be sure to read the fine print ....all the dealers advertise signs that say 0% commission!!! this is a load of bull......there is also fine print at the bottom saying only for selling purposes....that means when u exchange they can take a commission rate up to 10% which is a downright rip off....please be very careful ...ASK how much commision is charged before you hand over the money (even if the sign says 0%) because they will not return the money to you once the exchange has been made.

Do not entertain offers to change money on the street. I understand at best you will do badly and more probably you will get obsolete notes. Leave a Comment

Use ATMs to get money, don't change cash at Bureaux in the city, because you will get totally ripped off. Almost everywhere claims to be 0 percent commission, but read the small print and you'll see this is for exchanging local currency for pounds or dollars, not the other way round. I got charged a whacking great 10 percent when I bought Czech Crowns. Leave a Comment

If you need to change money, don't do it at the airport or at your hotel - they give you the worst rate ever. Always compare the rates between the different change booths. Don't be tempted by the signs saying '0%' or 'No commission' - always ask how much you'll get for US$100 (for example). One very reliable change booth, which gives you a fair rate, is located near the Old Town's square: when you are there facing the astrological clock, you'll see to your right, accross the square, to streets; the booth is located in the rightmost one, on it's left side, just around the corner.

 Crowds aplenty in Stare Mesto by DrewV
The worst dangers however are the crowds of tourists that swarm all over Stare Mesto. Look at this picture and tell me that this crowd wouldn't scare the beejeezus out of you!
