• Check for hygiene and cleanliness while eating in roadside restaurants in
  Hyderabad. Try to get mineral water while eating out in restaurants.
  
• Always insist for sterilized and disposable syringes in case you are in need
  of medical help.
  
• Keep all sorts of valuables and important papers (jewelry, passports, return
  tickets, etc) in your hotel's safe deposit box. Do not leave them unattended in
  your room. Avoid carrying large amounts of cash. Substitute it with travelers'
  cheques and credit cards. Keep good amounts of change though.
  
• Do not keep your wallet/purse in your rear pocket. Keep it inside your
  jacket pocket or side pocket of your trouser.
  
• Make an itinerary of important places to visit in and around Hyderabad and
  allot time for each place. Ask the hotel staff to arrange for a taxi or a
  tourist bus for you to travel around. It is better to travel with other tourists
  of your hotel to avoid getting lost.
  
• Avoid wearing revealing clothes while your stay in Hyderabad. You will end
  up attracting unwanted attraction and advances if you are wearing skimpy outfits
  because they do not appeal to Indian sensibilities. Jeans and trousers with
  normal shirts are accepted.
  
• Avoid any public display of affection. It will be better if you do not shake
  hands with a person of the opposite sex unless the other person extends his/her
  hand before you do.
