IECalCruiser Posted September 1, 2014 #1 Share Posted September 1, 2014 I was wondering what the tipping custom was in Italy for drivers and guides for tours by companies like Rome in Limo, Benvenuto or AP tours?

CruiserBruce Posted September 1, 2014 #2 Share Posted September 1, 2014 A quick search of the board would reveal the local custom is in the 10% or so range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cruisemom42 Posted September 1, 2014 #3 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Actually, 10% is not "local custom", it's what American utilizers of these services feel they should pay because they are accustomed to tipping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CGYCruisingFamily Posted September 1, 2014 #4 Share Posted September 1, 2014 I read that many Europeans don't tip and that it is more of a NA custom (many Europeans make a decent living wage). We did decide to tip about 10% on both RIL tours we took because they were excellent. The guides were not expecting it and were appreciative of it.
