TIPS
In the packet of materials you received from Peter's Way, mention is made of tipping our guide and driver. Elisabeth, our guide, will be with us for 6 1/2 days, meeting us at the airport and getting us back to the airport. We may have the same driver for the entire trip or the driving duties may be shared by several drivers. Suggested daily tip for Elisabeth is 4 Euros a day, and 2 Euros a day for our driver.
It's been our habit to pass around an envelope with everyone's name on it. When you have offered your tip, you can cross your name off. Some folks like to make their offering at beginning of the trip in order to be done with it; others wait til the last day and throw in all their spare bills and coins.
As you budget your spending money for the trip, please bring some money for the tips.
Tipping is restaurants is far different than our state side custom. Just a few Euros is quite acceptable even for a nice dinner as a "service fee" is usually included in the bill. For our hotel breakfasts or dinners, it's nice to leave a few coins. Guides in museums also appreciate a small tip.
Hang on to your Euro dollar coins and bills; they come in handy for saying thank you to all our guides and helpers.
See you tomorrow.....
