Safety Etiquette in Greece

In Greece, safety is generally good in tourist areas, but you should stay alert for petty theft in crowded places, on ferries, and around major sights, and keep valuables out of easy reach. Locals are used to normal urban caution rather than strict security routines, though in some neighborhoods of Athens or Thessaloniki it is wise to avoid empty streets late at night and use licensed taxis or reputable transport.
