There is no way to put it gently - high-risk areas are what they you thought they are. You can minimize that risk with the following.
You will want to be on the lookout for the following if you happen to travel to or in an area notorious for terrorist activities, including kidnapping:
Discuss with your family what they would do in the event of an emergency. Sort out everything before even planning to leave home for your trip.
Registering your trip with the Department of State, as previously discussed, is a sound idea.
Designate a friend or relative back home in the United States to take care of copies of your passport and other pertinent documents, and also a copy of your travel itinerary.
Your itinerary and/or personal information must be kept as private as possible, though you can always remain friendly to others.
Your hotel room must not have any personal or busines documents strewn all over the place.
Be on the lookout for people loitering around and trying to surreptitiously observe your behavior.
Mentally note down different safe haven locations, including hotels, hospitals and especially police stations. If a bomb goes off or if there is gunfire in your area, it helps to have a game plan already in place in case of these emergencies.
Tell another person, like family or friends about your travel plans. Keep them informed if you change your plans.
If you notice any suspicious behavior in anybody, report it to the following - the local police, the US embassy and/or consulate.
Select your own taxicabs at random. If a vehicle is not properly and/or legally classified as a taxi, you should avoid it. Also cross-check the face of the driver with what you see on his or her license in the cab.
Group travel is much encouraged.
Do not open your hotel room door for anybody whom you don't know. The hotel is no place to meet up with strangers, even ore so with remote locations or unknown spots.
Refuse "surprise" packages delivered.
Check for loose wires or other suspicious activity around your car.
Check to see whether your vehicle is still running properly.
When taking your car out on crowded streets, keep your windows closed at all times. After all, bombs can fly into open windows...
Final quick tip - if you find yourself in a life-threatening situation where somebody begins to shoot, drop down on the floor or go as low as you could. Until the gunman has been apprehended or killed, stay perfectly still in your place. Don't interfere with the police or rescuers and avoid every chance to pick up a weapon. Find a hard object where you can hide yourself as the danger rages on. If you must move, crawl on your stomach.
