Mexico City enjoys a mild, high-altitude climate year-round. Winters (November to February) are cool and dry, with daytime highs near 22°C (72°F) and chilly nights. Summers (June to September) bring rain, but showers usually pass quickly, leaving most days pleasant for exploring.

Tipping around 10–15% is customary, but always check your bill as some places include it.
