Do I need to tip?
Yes you do. 15% is the standard and 20% is common for good service.
Please expect to tip in cash (USD or pesos).
Do I need to carry cash?
Yes you do. Credit cards are not always accepted and even if there is a facility, many businesses ask to pay in cash.
What should I do if I get sick?
Pharmacies
What happens if I need serious medical assistance?
Mexican ambulances will require you to be able to provide ID and usually proof of ability to pay some costs. We suggest carrying a credit card with your ID on you at all times. This is just broad anecdotal advice, but please be sensible when travelling.
Should I get travel insurance?
Yes. Quite simply, should anything happen to any traveler in any country, it’s always sensible to have the protection of health insurance
