Wear casual, comfortable clothes for sightseeing in New Orleans, and choose your dinner outfit separately. Walking shoes and breathable daywear suit ordinary exploring, but GW Fins and Galatoire’s have specific restaurant requirements. The restaurant and, at Galatoire’s, the dining room you choose determine whether you need a collared shirt or a jacket. In this guide […]
For Savannah, pack comfortable walking shoes, removable layers and everyday clothes you can reuse for different activities. River Street’s paving makes footwear especially important, while the season determines whether your extra layer is a light overshirt or a warmer jacket. Set aside a neat combination for a dressier dinner and a shoulder-covering layer for a […]
You may walk with an alcoholic drink in Savannah’s designated downtown area, provided you meet its age, cup and drink-limit conditions. That permission does not cover the whole Historic District or extend to cars. Forsyth Park has a separate exception for qualifying events, not ordinary park visits. In this guide Walking with an alcoholic drink […]
Tipping in Tenerife is voluntary, and leaving nothing is not rude. A tip is a thank-you for good service, not an extra payment you owe whenever you eat out, take a taxi or ask hotel staff for help.

Tipping in Madeira is optional, not expected. You can thank good service with a small extra, but you do not need to add a gratuity to every meal, taxi fare or hotel stay. The useful distinction is between the amount you owe and the extra you choose to give. Settle the stated bill, ask about […]

In this guide Portuguese and English Hello, good morning […]
In Lisbon, greet people before asking for help, wait your turn, share trams considerately and leave unwanted restaurant extras untouched. Choose shoes with grip for the hills and keep your voice down near homes after dark. Courtesy and practical advice are not the same as legal rules: Carris passenger obligations, restaurant charging conditions and late-night […]
In Granada, a small tapa is customarily included with a qualifying drink, but it is not guaranteed with every order. Confirm that your chosen drink includes food before ordering, then let the bar bring the tapa. Your drink, where you sit and whether you choose extra food can all affect what you pay. In this […]
For Munich, pack comfortable everyday clothes, broken-in walking shoes and layers you can take off indoors. Trousers with a T-shirt or shirt work for sightseeing. Add rain protection and warmer pieces for the season. You can use much of the same wardrobe for an evening meal. The setting matters more than fashion: bring a covering […]
Portuguese is the official language in Lisbon, and you can generally use English in visitor-facing services. Ask whether the person speaks English rather than starting with a long request.
