Trips IQ

Destinations & safety

What is the Cultural Guidance & Local Customs section on my trip?

When your trip has a destination country, Trips IQ shows a **Cultural Guidance &

Local Customs** card with two kinds of help:

  • Know before you go — quick facts for the country: which side of the road you'll be driving on, the local currency, plug and voltage types, whether the tap water is safe to drink, tipping norms, and the main language(s).
  • Local customs & tips — practical, on-the-ground pointers for the destination, grouped into things like arrival & getting around, customs & etiquette, money & tipping, food & drink, and staying safe.

It appears automatically based on your trip's country — there's nothing to turn on. Cultural Guidance is a Premium feature.

These are friendly pointers, not official rules. Local customs vary by region and change over time, so always use your own judgment.
