NOTE:

Please note that tipping or “baksheesh” is a way of life in Egypt. Most people survive on tips. Our representative in Cairo recommends $35 per person for the tips for the entire journey, which you can give him upon arrival (if you wish) and he will distribute the tips evenly to all people involved in the tour as he knows how much and whom to give it to. We normally do this, because from experience, when people have tipped on their own, they end up paying larger sums of money and sometimes to the wrong people these tips are only for the people directly involved in your tour and as per your itinerary. However, if you take an optional activity not mentioned in your itinerary then this will be subject to extra tips. It is very important that you understand that this is a way of life in Egypt because sometimes people get offended when guides, porters and drivers keep pestering them for tips.

Hi. I'd like to ask the details of how to pay the tips? I'm on my own on a private local tour for 7 days, which I booked over the Internet instead of following tours from Kuala Lumpur.

May I know how many people involved? (is it tour guide & driver only? Or someone elses too?) a detail is appreciated. And your recommendation of USD35/day is for how many people and for what type of service.

I'd also like to know more of the right amount to tip? Cos over tipping or under tipping is not very pleasant. Do you tip at the end or beginning of your trip?

Appreciate if you drop me an email: shinyeen@yahoo.com. Thanks.
