• Do carry cash — You don't have to carry too much or entirely rely on it, as Mexico City is becoming much less of a cardless society than it was, but it can still come in handy. Often, if you want to eat some of that sizzling street food or give a tip to a talented street performer, then you'll need to use cash.
• Do tip — Mexico City has a tipping culture. If you appreciate the work someone's done, it's both kind and expected to tip. The average tip tends to be around 10 - 20%.
• Don't use taxis — There have been reports of robberies as well as tourists being charged extortionate rates while in taxis. It's best to just use an app like Uber.
• Don't visit museums on a Monday — Most museums in Mexico City are closed on a Monday for maintenance and cleaning.
