    Avoid the Metro

    Posted by RogerDunne 6 March 2006

    Here's a useful tip for those hoping to cut transport costs: avoid Mexico City's metro like the plague - unless you hide your money etc somewhere in your shoes. It's just not worth it. The metro is often overcrowded and overrun by well-organised gangs of
    pickpockets, especially places like San Lázaro early in the morning. I was jostled violently and robbed last July, and so was my brother-in-law (a Mexican) a couple of days later - in exactly the same place (he
    didn't know of my experience). We should have known better. Never again.
