"Italians value politeness and greetings; say 'Buongiorno' (good morning) or 'Buonasera' (good evening) when entering shops. Dress neatly, especially when visiting churches (cover shoulders and knees). Dining etiquette includes waiting for the host to start, and tipping is not mandatory but appreciated (5-10% for good service). Avoid loud behavior in public. Respect siesta hours (1-4 PM) when many shops close."
