Preparing your trip to Banja Luka: advices & hints - things to do and to obey
1. Tourists should not explore distant areas of the city on their own. It is also important to be very attentive in public areas in order not to become a victim of swindlers or pickpockets.
2. Don’t forget to bargain on local markets and in workshops. Many sellers intentionally pretend they don’t understand foreign languages or say they don’t have a change, so it is important to pay an item only after you negotiate the exact final price.
3. It is possible to talk about any theme with local people, but it is recommended to refrain from politics and military actions of the past. These themes are the most painful, and any awkward comment can offend local people or make them angry.
4. Tourists shouldn’t put on clothes or accessories with any provocative mottos or slogans. Such behavior can be misunderstood in the city and might be a reason for bursts of aggression.
6. Don’t forget to leave tips in restaurants and cafes. A tip of 10% of the total is enough.
7. Tourists, who plan to use a taxi, should negotiate the price with the driver in advance. Small tips are always welcome.
