What’s the worst travel advice you’ve ever been given?

I got told to leave all my money in the hotel room while travelling in India. <br><br>I decided to follow this advice. When it came time to pay for a meal, I had no money with me. I went back to my hotel to grab cash. I knocked and shouted through the door that it was me, but the staff had locked me out. I had to call the police to get in. I think the only reason they opened the door was because they realised it was the hotel manager, but the staff were super shaken and obviously very embarrassed.<br><br>I was told to not carry any money with me when in India. I decided to take minimal money with me. I never had to worry about money while carrying it with me. I always had change.

It was a nightmare. <br><br>So the worst advice I’ve been given was the advice to not carry money with me in India. <br><br>What’s the worst travel advice you’ve been given?
