What Social Norms Should You Observe?
Courtesy and a measured pace define interactions.
Greetings matter; say "buongiorno" when entering shops. Avoid loud phone calls in restaurants and churches. Dress respectfully in religious sites (covered shoulders, no shorts).
Punctuality is appreciated for tours and transfers; restaurants are forgiving within reason but advise if you're delayed.
