Jimbo59 Posted September 2, 2015 #1 Share Posted September 2, 2015 In the US, porters who load your luggage onto the ship expect a tip. Does anyone know if the porters at Civitavecchia expect to be tipped? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone know if the porters at Civitavecchia expect to be tipped? Yes they do - and they seemed more appreciative than many in the US. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Keith1010 Posted September 2, 2015 #3 Share Posted September 2, 2015 Yes you should tip them. One or two euros per bag. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wine-O Posted September 2, 2015 #4 Share Posted September 2, 2015 In the US, porters who load your luggage onto the ship expect a tip. Does anyone know if the porters at Civitavecchia expect to be tipped? It depends. Last year there weren't any porters to be found, so we had to offload our own luggage off the transport and carry it to them. There was no sense of urgency to assist, so the only tip I gave them was -- get another job. :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jacs Posted September 6, 2015 #8 Share Posted September 6, 2015 I went to tip them but they rushed off with our bags and shooed us through to the tent that I didn't even get the chance :) Seems like it might depend on the porters you get on the day.
