Viking Homelands Tip Currency

A quick note from the Viking Jupiter.  Sweden has gone largely cash-free--even buying a pack of gum from a kiosk is done using a contactless credit card.  So if you do wish to tip the guide and drivers in Swedish kroner, get the smallest amount possible.

 

(And an off-topic item:  The public transit system in Stockholm also now uses contactless credit cards for its ticketing.  You don't buy a ticket but just present your CC at the turnstile or machine on the bus.  If you are over 67 years old, you can go to the SL website and register your CC and obtain the senior fare.  Incredibly easy!)
