NCLiz99 Posted April 14, 2019 #1 Share Posted April 14, 2019 What is the protocol regarding tipping for a private tour from an owner/guide? Generally we are generous tippers, but wondering in this case since our cost is several hundred dollars paid directly to the owner/guide himself, with no cut going to other parties. Thanks.

I don't think such a financial arrangement ought to lead to an additional gratuity unless you are extremely pleased with the tour and the guide's services. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cb at sea Posted April 15, 2019 #6 Share Posted April 15, 2019 What is the "tipping culture" in Croatia? That's what I'd go by! Ok..I looked it up. In Croatia, it's common to "round up" and leave that as a tip for most services. For tours, if it's a GREAT tour, 10% is the common amount....so no need to over-tip!

SRF Posted April 19, 2019 #7 Share Posted April 19, 2019 I tip if I like the tour/excursion. If it is a group thing, then normally $20 for the two of us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
