Always come to agreed to price with a cab or tro-tro (sp?) before you get in. Cabs don't pay till you arrive.
Don't give money to anyone begging even if you feel bad. It's a common scam.
Don't pay first asked price and assume you are getting ripped off because you probably are. If have a local have them haggle for you.
Always get a receipt for hotels and if you are ordering goods.
Prepare for the possibility to be hit on a lot.
Only eat steaming hot food unless you want super shits or typhoid fever.
Get your yellow fever vaccine or you are not getting in without the proof.
Don't pay a bribe ever.
Do try to go to Mole.

Prepared to have your bags checked randomly on the road by police so don't have anything illegal, or embarrassing, in there. They probably will leave you alone unless they think you are coming from near the border and smuggling.
The people are generally friendly. Have fun but don't be stupid either.
