How to prevent being cheated when going to America?

Traveling abroad, due to the differences in some countries, there may always be some unaccustomed problems, and some people may even use unfamiliar places to deceive you, so pay attention to traveling abroad. Let's take a look at how to pay attention.

Mr. Wang, who has worked as a tour guide in the United States for many years, told reporters that in recent years, when China tourists visit famous historical and cultural cities such as Washington, Philadelphia and Boston in the United States, they are no longer just "visiting here" as in the past.

Some tourists confidently communicate with the locals in English; Some tourists hold tour guides and ask some cultural questions; There are also knowledgeable tour guides who explain the local culture to other tourists.

China tourists also pay more attention to the in-depth experience in their country tours in the United States.

Mr. Wang told reporters that in order to attract tourists from China, picking fruits and vegetables has now become a must-have item for many American country tours. The travel agency where Mr. Wang works designed a tour route to participate in the apple picking project in New York State. This American-style "farmhouse music" has attracted many tourists from China.

Obey the traffic rules. In order to gain a deeper experience, some tourists choose go on road trip. Traffic accidents have become one of the most important accidents encountered by free travellers in China.

Some tourists' bad driving habits lead to traffic accidents. For example, in July of 2065438+2006, when a tourist was in go on road trip, Arizona, he didn't stop at the stop sign at the intersection, and his car was hit by a through train, killing four people.

The traffic rules in the United States are generally similar to those in China. Drivers should strictly abide by the traffic rules and pay attention to the "right of way". When you see signs such as "stop" and "give way", you must strictly abide by them, because the other driver has the right of way; If there is an accident because of robbing a bank, the bank robber should take full responsibility.

Before driving in the United States, tourists must also be familiar with how to deal with the police. The expressway police are armed. When driving in the United States, if a police car follows and sounds the alarm, you should immediately stop at the side of the road, roll down the window, put your hands on the steering wheel and wait for the police to ask about the situation.

In addition, the overall speed of the United States is relatively fast. When driving on expressway, try to keep the same speed as other vehicles. Don't be too slow, let alone occupy the left overtaking lane at low speed.

When driving in Los Angeles and other places, due to the constant traffic, if you are not familiar with roads and traffic signs, you will be nervous when driving, so you should study the driving route in advance.

Don't "go to Hushan". Some scenic spots in the United States are either steep in terrain and complicated in geological conditions, or high in mountains and dense in forests, with many wild animals, or deep in water and waves. Coupled with the diversity of climate change, disasters such as snow, mountain fires and mudslides caused by extreme weather occur from time to time.

A tourist was killed while hiking across a stream in Mount Rainier National Park, Washington, USA in July.

20 17, 17 10 and may, China people fell from the top of the ice waterfall and died.

Industry insiders remind that China tourists should pay attention to the geological and climatic conditions of their destinations in advance and arrange their routes reasonably.

Many scenic spots in the United States have detailed geological and climatic information in official website. For dangerous areas, there are signs in the scenic spots, which tourists must strictly abide by.

On July 16, 23 tourists and crew members were burned by splashing lava while watching lava from Kilauea volcano in Hawaii pour into the sea.

Kilauea volcano continued to erupt on May 3, and the local government repeatedly reminded residents and tourists to pay attention to safety and not to enter dangerous areas, but some tourists were still close to watch the spectacular scene of volcanic eruption.

The Consulate General of China in Los Angeles issued an announcement on July 18, reminding China citizens to participate in Hawaiian volcano-related sightseeing projects cautiously.

In addition, when tourists participate in high-risk projects such as rock climbing, skiing, rafting, skydiving and diving, they must do what they can and follow the guidance and arrangement of professionals.

Respect custom and avoid trouble. China tourists should not only abide by the laws when traveling in the United States, but also respect the local customs, so as not to cause unnecessary troubles.

Attention should be paid to avoiding noise in public places. A couple quarreled fiercely while visiting the cliff in the Grand Canyon Scenic Area and were taken away by the Americans.

Visitors who like to bring their own maps to experience the streets need to improve their safety awareness. Before traveling to the United States, we must find out which blocks of the city they are going to have poor public security and try to avoid setting foot in these blocks.

Besides knowing where not to go, tourists should also pay attention to their own behavior and avoid getting into trouble. In July last year, a curious tourist was beaten into a coma on suspicion of shooting a group of homeless people in downtown Los Angeles with his mobile phone.

Ning Wu, director of the China Tourism Office in Los Angeles, said that tourists from China to the United States have shown higher and higher personal qualities in recent years, but they should still do their homework on American social culture, laws and regulations and natural environment in advance in the process of free travel, so as to be more calm and safe.
