Tipping Tips – How Much Should I Tip?

When I was younger, I was not interested in tipping. When I started traveling, I discovered that there were different ways to do it and that they depended on the country I was visiting.

In some countries, you tip when you eat in a restaurant or order room service. In other countries, you tip when you order drinks at a bar or buy a newspaper.

Here are some tips for tipping at an all-inclusive hotel.

Tip for Room Service

If you order room service, the waiter will bring your food to your room. You should leave a 10% tip.

Tip for Bar Service

Tip at Restaurants
