Local Tips

English isn't widely spoken; carry cash as many places do not accept credit cards. Taxi and ride-hailing apps are available but negotiating fares upfront is best. Dress modestly, especially in public spaces.

Cultural Etiquette

Tipping is appreciated but not mandatory (5–10% in restaurants). Both men and women should dress modestly: women must wear a headscarf and long sleeves in public. Greet with a polite 'salaam' and respect local customs around prayer times.

Safety Warnings

Generally safe, but take standard precautions with valuables in busy markets. Avoid walking alone late at night in less lit or quieter outskirt areas. Petty theft is rare but possible in crowded places.

Hidden Gems

Visit the local morning bazaar for unique handicrafts and fresh produce, and explore the smaller tea houses where you can experience traditional music nights.
