Basically, in the tourist zones, the tip is included in the bill, if not, then, as in many countries, it is 10% of the bill. You have the right not to leave them at all. Farther...

So the person therefore asked that he had not yet decided on the region. In the same way, they ask about Turkey and France. There are only 7 types of climatic zones on Earth, how did it turn out to be 5 in Spain? Farther...
Tipping, I understand your business to give or not. But would it be good form in Egypt to pay, purely on the bill with the service tax? And what kind of tax is this, to whom does it go to the staff or the state? We were in a restaurant in Hurghada "Star fish" on the bill with tax came out 146.5 pounds. Left 150. And then the most interesting. The waiter had the audacity to tell me to wait and open the folder with the money in front of me. And then ask for a tip. this is unquestionably bad behavior. I did not expect from such a famous restaurant.

In this country, life is built on tips. And as you correctly noted, giving them is your business. The fact that they begin to beg is one thing. But if you liked the service, regardless of the service tax, why not reward the employee? Arriving at the hotel one day, the suitcases were left at the reception, the employee decided to show the numbers, and then stood with outstretched hand, he didn’t like a couple of pounds, he wanted to get $ 5. But he just didn’t get them. Farther...
Is it appropriate to leave a maid, as a tip, chocolates in a hotel?

You can leave nothing at all, first see how they are removed. Usually they leave money, 1-2 leva. If you want to give a chocolate bar, it’s better to hand it in, otherwise they won’t understand. For some reason, it’s also customary to pay guides after the tour, this is unusual for us. We usually give 5 leva for two at the exit. Bulgarians are very surprised that this is not customary in our country. And, here, in a restaurant it is customary for us, but they simply round up to the whole leva and ... Farther...

They always left 1 dollar for cleaning, and if they didn’t make figures, they stopped leaving them at all ... It was like they took money, but they didn’t notice the cleaning ... It all depends on the attitude and attention of the staff to you, like it - leave it, don’t like it - no .... In bars - depending on how you drink. To be remembered for the subsequent service "out of turn" and "with soul", a couple of times you can leave for a dollar. And in principle, you can not leave at all. Farther...
Good afternoon! We are considering options for a trip to Spain in late August-September. We would like to relax relatively inexpensively and children friendly (children 8 years old and a year and a half). Ideally, probably, not far from Barcelona - so that you can get out to see the sights without the strain of moving, but in general, the warm sea, sand and the availability of entertainment for the elder are more important. What would you suggest? Thank you in advance.

Hello! I would like to know about tips, as we are going to Turkey with my husband for the first time. Is it necessary to give money? - upon check-in, so that there is a normal room (in the reviews, many write that they did not give it and everything was OK); - for daily cleaning of the room (acquaintances left every day, but someone's hair and a cigarette butt near the bed lay until the end of the holiday); - bartenders, waiters, minibus drivers, etc. In general, to WHOM and HOW MUCH to tip, so as not to spoil your vacation? Thank you all in advance!

We were in Turkey last year. At first, they didn’t know what to give to whom. Now I can advise you: - upon check-in, it is desirable to give 10 c.u. - the number will be much better than the one that you will be offered initially. Still, don’t say anything, but it’s more pleasant to wake up in a room overlooking not a Turkish trash can, but a beach or a pool; -we did not leave for cleaning, although sometimes you can 1 c.u. leave, they will make you a flower or a swan out of towels; - bartend ...
