Consejos para la ciudad
Facilidad para moverse por la casa
Use city buses or Uber's Whenever possible.
They are usually cheaper, air conditioned and they don't scam you like taxi's tend to do. The cars are nicer, too.
Costumbres y cultura
Learn some basic Spanish
Learn simple Spanish words and try to use them
Formas de ahorrar
Use credit cards and Pesos
Do not use US or Canadian Dollars. You're in Mexico, please use pesos. Dollars are difficult for Mexicans to exchange. The best exchange rates can be found at ATM's at banks. Do NOT exchange at the airport. Use credit cards when it's an option. Great exchange rates.
