Local Insights & Tips
Embrace the local custom of hospitality; a warm 'Ahlan wa Sahlan' (welcome) is common. Always use your right hand when greeting, eating, or passing objects, as the left hand is considered unclean in Islamic culture. Public displays of affection should be kept to a minimum out of respect for local customs.
