This Is How Tourists Get Scammed in India 🇮🇳

Описание: This day in Mumbai, India did NOT go to plan. I started the morning at 8AM in a hotel near Mumbai Airport, heading out early to catch my flight to Bangladesh. I arrived three hours early, but thanks to chaotic and slow airport security, I still missed my flight and was left stranded in Mumbai with nowhere to stay.

With no hotel and no plan, I booked a last-minute room and tried to make the most of the day. I headed out to a huge local cricket tournament, where thousands of people play every Sunday — an incredible side of India most tourists never see.

After the cricket, I made my way to one of Mumbai’s most famous landmarks, the Gateway of India, where I tried some Indian street food. That’s when things took a turn. I was approached and followed by an older Indian woman who claimed she wanted help and asked me to show her around. What seemed harmless quickly turned into a classic tourist scam, and I ended up paying her £4.

After realising what had happened, I went back to my hotel to reset before heading back out onto the streets of Mumbai at night, searching for more street food. Unfortunately, everything was shut, and after a long, exhausting day, I decided to call it a night and end the vlog.

This video shows the real side of traveling India — the chaos, the kindness, the confusion, and the scams tourists need to be aware of.
