**As with any large city, know your surroundings and do not travel to places in which you are not familiar. We have hundreds of photo and video locations within a 5-10 minute walk in the surrounding area of the hotel. The area we are in is a tourist area and is heavily policed and safe. Please check out our recommended shooting locations on our site for great opportunities and portfolio building.
**As with any large city theft will always be a problem. You hear about these instances at ALL conferences. Travel in groups and keep your items with you at all times. Think Tank has an incredible bag with cable locks (Airport series). This is a great way to be able to set your bag down and cable lock it near by. If you do not have this option we suggest find a way to do this. This is a great concept for any and all conferences that you travel to! ClickCon nor PROCAM will be responsible for any stolen or lost items.
