any currency can beat. But how much depends on how they serve it - from 1 pound to the dollar.

Porter 1 or 2 euros, and in the room for 2 pounds every day, drivers of sightseeing buses for 1-2 euros. And to the unhurried waiters, only thanks and a smile. They don't deserve more, they need to work faster.
Good luck!

In general, what would not indulge. once for a porter $ 1 and 10 pounds a week for a room cleaner, but if you want more, it will not affect the quality of cleaning. In general, not leaving a tip (well, in the room) is, to put it mildly, redneck for them. Waiters from 1 pound (that's 5 rubles) to 5 (it's not worth it anymore - you'll spoil it). They have an amazing memory for faces, if you spoil them they will fall behind. Well this applies to rooms in a 4* hotel. As far as I know, 5 * should be increased)))) Happy trip)

We left $ 1 for cleaning, but this did not affect the quality! The porter is also no more than $ 1! If you give $ 1 to the waiter, he will run up and serve until the end of the holiday! It doesn’t cost you anything, but make friends and you will be served royally. For them, this is a lot of money!

2U.E FOR bringing things in, for cleaning also, although the floor was dirty. When 1 when 2u.e, the attitude was different, the table is always good and they will bring water and give more water with them, and they will ask if everything was fine.

Already checked repeatedly, because. in Egypt was 6 times, it is best to have a calm, even relationship with the maid, in the first place. Every day, leave $ 1 in the room (do not indulge,"appetite comes with eating") and you will have clean towels and a tidy room and they will not rummage through things, but if you took a laptop with you, it's better " put " more reliable. Porters also $ 1. "Do not shine" especially the euro, the Egyptians are impudent and 1 euro=$1.

Ladies and Gentlemen, do not regret tipping if you have received positive emotions from someone else's work, whether it be a driver, a cleaner, a waiter, a salesman, do not regret giving him $ 1 and look, in 5-10 years, Russians will become more normal!

Why are you all so generous?)) A porter is 1 dollar, in a restaurant you need to give a tip once, and then a good mood and attitude will always remain with you ... Cleaners once a week a few feet. And tipping bus drivers is already too much)

Of the tips, they gave (did not see the need) only a couple of pounds to the drivers of the sightseeing buses. Neither the cleaner nor the waiters were given anything - the result: every day fresh towels (sometimes swans from them on the beds), and the waiters jumped around and brought all the drinks very quickly :). The issue with tips probably depends on the hotel, where the staff is used to what and what system the hotel itself works on.

I’ll tell you this. Even if you leave 3 bucks there a day (for a cleaner, a waiter and on the beach), then super attention is guaranteed to you. Why are Germans (for example) better treated? Because they never regret tea. If you if you find money for a ticket, then this tea is nothing for you, but for them it is a lot of money. And unlike ours (in the Crimea, for example), they will work it out to the fullest. Do not regret it in relation to you, they will return more with their attention.

about the Germans, you got excited, you still have to look for a more greedy nation. The Arabs themselves always say that it’s impossible to promote a German on a bakish, they believe that everything is included in the price of the tour. 2 pounds a day for a cleaner (or 5 pounds every other day), a couple of times 1-2 pounds for a waiter who, after the first pound, will be your best friend))) the whole team from the pier waved goodbye)))

Being several times in Egypt, I realized the following: it’s worth giving a tip - because. this is very important for them, but for us 1-2 dollars a day is not noticeable. Giving a tip will provide you with a better attitude than without a tip. By the way, the author of the words is right: they will work them out to the fullest - pure truth.
