Scams to watch for in North Macedonia
- Taxi overchargingDrivers may ask tourists for higher fares, especially when they seem unsure of the price. In Ohrid, summer fares can reach three times the usual starting rate. Drivers outside Ohrid bus station have asked up to 400 denar for a trip to the centre. Some drivers may also try to persuade you to go somewhere you did not plan to visit.
- Pickpocketing during street approachesPickpockets may take unsecured valuables. In Skopje, some people who approach visitors to beg may also engage in pickpocketing. An approach alone does not mean someone intends to steal.
- Persistent bus-station ride toutsPeople approach arriving passengers and offer rides. They may be unprofessional drivers who do not know the destination well, take an inefficient route or provide poor value.
