From real experience

Safety in Rio de Janeiro: 1. Avoid using smartphones in public; use secure lanyards or store devices in bags.

2. Prefer Uber over the metro at night for safety and cost-efficiency. 3. High-crime areas are localized; the South Zone (Copacabana, Ipanema, Leblon) is generally safer but requires standard vigilance. 4. Avoid walking in deserted areas or wearing expensive jewelry.

For accommodation, options like Radisson in Tijuca offer safety and comfort. Tourists are cautioned against unofficial 'private' tours (scam risk) and urged to be extremely cautious with mobile phones in public to avoid theft. Local food prices, even in seaside restaurants, are considered relatively affordable.
