While some restaurants may accept US dollars, it is generally recommended to exchange some dollars for pesos. Most establishments prefer local currency, and exchanging money ensures you'll have the correct currency for transactions and avoid any confusion or exchange rate discrepancies.

In Mexican ports, tipping practices can vary, but they generally follow a similar pattern to the United States. It's customary to tip drivers, bartenders, and restaurant servers. For street food vendors, it will depend on you, but small changes or rounding up the bill is appreciated. In tequila tastings, a small tip is appropriate. As for tour guides, I tip around 10-15% of the tour cost.
