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...
Is it necessary to tip in restaurants if the service tax is already included in the bill?
Egypt
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?
10 years ago  •  8 subscribers 8 answers

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...
I am flying to Turkey for the first time. Please tell me how much it is customary to leave a tip?
Turkey › Belek › Crystal Family Resort & Spa 5*
Including for cleaning in the room, in bars?

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...
Tip amount not to offend
Turkey › Kemer › Rixos Premium Tekirova 5*

But we are going to such a hotel for the first time, we are interested in how much to leave a tip for the luggage that will be brought to the room, how much to leave at the bar, cleaning, or somewhere else so as not to offend the staff. Interested in the amount and where to leave. Share your experience in hotels of this level.

Tipping in Turkey is solely at the discretion of the client, when they really provided a great service. I don’t think that rolling my chumadan to the room is a cool job, I left a tip to the porter only once in my life, but there he really dragged two suitcases on himself about three hundred meters to the house 300 meters, because the path was dirty, he didn’t want suitcases in smear the dirt. In restaurants, if the food is very tasty, 5-15% of the bill. Farther...
Tipping - to give or not to give?
Turkey
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 ...

Many write that in Egypt, Alenka chocolate is held in high esteem, instead of a tip. Is this so, or have our people decided so, and they are already sick of Alenka?

It's true about chocolate. Local chocolate is of very poor quality, and imported chocolate is very expensive. As a medium of exchange, you can also use cigarettes and even any candy, not necessarily chocolate. For many years now, we have been specially carrying ordinary barberries with us. And on the plane it helps to pass the time, and it really helps any negotiations with the Egyptians. Money is, of course, a universal equivalent, but there are things that an ordinary Egyptian in his country ... Farther...
Hotel theft - what to do?
Egypt
Rested in Melia Sinai, Sharm. On the last evening, someone climbed into the room, opened the safe, took the wallet with money and a payment card. Everything was discovered at five in the morning - half an hour before the arrival of the bus, on which we were taken to the airport. On the spot, there was no time to sort things out with the stupid boy at the reception. Already in Kyiv, I sent an application addressed to the director of the travel agency, where they bought the tour, and the operator Anex Tour. We also sent a letter to the president of the hotel chain in Spain. Who knows, according to the results - should we expect any action from the operator and the hotel? Is it possible to get some kind of compensation? Thanks for the answer.

Dear compatriots! I would like to share with you my story and experience gained while on vacation in the Arab state of Egypt, the city of Hurghada at the Albatros White Beach (Hurgada) – 5 * hotel, where money was substituted (theft) from the safe. I am writing this to you so that you can protect yourself and do the right thing if you find yourself in such an unpleasant situation. When this situation happened to my family, I could not get complete information anywhere on how to proceed: not from ... Farther...
