Creator's Key Takeaways
My friend was robbed on a recent cruise while visiting a cruise port in Mexico.
Try to establish the price on the front end and ask the question do you take cash.
Make it fun take a picture of the cab before you get in take a selfie with the cabbie before you get in.
I've got a story even that cab process if you don't do it right can be challenging.

✓Establish the price upfront and ask if the cab takes cash.
✓Take a picture of the cab or a selfie with the driver to create exposure.
✓When asked about your status, imply you are meeting friends to deter potential issues.
