What Social Norms Should You Observe?
Politeness is valued, with friendly greetings and patience at the table. Personal space can be closer than in some countries.
Say "buenos días" or "buenas tardes" upon entering shops or restaurants. Restaurants encourage lingering; quick bill requests are fine but signal you're ready only when truly finished. Taxis and drivers appreciate clear directions and punctuality.
