Tipping
Tipping is essentially limited to upscale restaurants (leave about 10% of the bill) and posh hotels. Most restaurants will incorporate a 10% service charge into the bill anyway, as well as the 16% IVA sales tax - but it is not mandatory to pay the service charge. As in most neighboring countries, bargaining is limited to informal trade and services, such as markets, street stalls, taxis, and sometimes long-distance buses.
