Local Tips
Bring cash, as many establishments don't accept cards. Cell and internet service can be spotty in rural areas. Don't miss local cheese and honey at the weekend market.

Tipping 10% is customary in restaurants. Dress casually but respectfully; outdoor gear is appropriate for hikes. Greet locals with a friendly 'buenos días'.
