Reddit mentions of AmazonBasics RFID Travel Waist Belt Fanny Pack - Khaki

I just got back from Prague. While there, if you're into art, be sure to visit the Mucha museum and the Slav Epic. It's an incredible series of paintings, not normally on the tourist stuff, but is one of the greatest works of art you will see, hands down. It's a series of 20 paintings by Mucha that are massive. It also doesn't take a huge amount of time, can easily be done in an hour.

Most people in Prague speak English. Map out on google maps where you are staying and where the tournament location is. Check walking times, it's very easy to walk through Prague (Although the things you want to see will probably be too long to walk to from the airport area). Wear insulated shoes or boots, it will be quite cold. Follow common sense with your stuff. Don't keep wallets in your back pocket, make sure you have photo copies of your passport and extra money in case something bad happens. Be aware of distractions, especially involving children. There's a regular scam near the astronomical clock that involves kids releasing balloons and lots of yelling to direct you one direction while you get pickpocketed. While in Paris a group of middle school aged girls tried to shove a paper to sign in my wife's face, and cover her purse while another tried to get into it (I mention this because it's common to see across Europe, not just Paris). We'd read up on both of these common scams, so we were ready. This kind of stuff is way less popular in off season, but it does still sometimes happen, so be aware of your surroundings, and keep hold of your stuff. My wife made me wear one of these horrible things while we were over there over my undershirt, under my sweater. It was uncomfortable and awkward and after all the complaining never tell her I said this, but it was totally worth it. I never had to worry.

Prague's town center and astronomical clock are amazing. Very highly recommend. Saint Vitus Cathedral was amazing, and they had a lot of really neat historical stuff in the castle it's nestled into.

It was already freezing cold in early December when we were there, and long johns were essential.

I know that was a lot of nonsense, but I hope it's useful.

Visited Paris a few years ago and pick pockets and thieving gypsy children are definitely an issue, but if you're smart about it, you can avoid them fairly easily. As in any big city, just keep to yourself and everything is going to be alright.

Consider buying a money belt (Amazon link) - just tuck it in your pants / under your shirt, and you'll be ok.

If you're going into the country side, or smaller towns, pickpockets are a much smaller concern.

What you want to do is get a travel money pouch and put any joints, weed, or other "extracurriculars" in there. When you are at the shows get up in the crowd and smoke it, if anything happens toss the joint you will be fine. Even if someone searches you as long as your stuff is in your money pouch and the pouch in secured and concealed beneath your pants they will have no idea. This also helps alot with getting through the initial security.
