    Tip questions...which I think I’ve asked before and can’t find the posts:

    1.   Do you tip bus drivers and guides in Europe...specifically Spain, Italy, Greece and Malta?  How much?

    2.  In Barcelona, do you tip the baggage porters at embarkation and disembarkation?  Is it pretty standard 1-2 euros per bag?  

    3.  Is the don’t tip, just round up true in all the above countries at restaurants and bars?   

    Thanks!!!!!! Jane 

    Hi,

    I'm from Spain. I'll try to answer all your questions:

    Tips are not mandatory but welcome.

    1.- Guides: about 5€ per party (can be more or even less).

    Bus driver: It's not usual to do it, but you can if you think he/she deserves it. Maybe 1€ or 2€ máx per person.

    2.- Same as bus driver.
    In this case, if he/she had been specially nice with you, or you have any matter that makes his/her job harder, so it's common to give some €.

    3.- There is not a % settled, but if the service was good, you should tip at restaurants and bars. 

    10% would be a good number

     

    Excuse my english.
