Bargain politely: When shopping in local markets, haggling is common and expected. Do so respectfully and with a smile.
Cash is king: While many places accept cards, smaller shops and street vendors often prefer cash. Keep small denominations handy.
Respect local customs: Greet locals with 'Namaste' and always ask for permission before photographing people.
