What advice about tipping would I offer a first-time visitor to Europe? Just round up the bill. Leave a couple Euros. 3 or 4 per cent is more than sufficient. Much better system than we have in N. America, where workers are paid little and depend on tips. A3 #TravelSkills

A3 In Germany we usually recommend to add a tip of 10% to your bill. #TravelSkills

replying to @GermanyTourism @GermanyTourism A3 The 15%-20% customary in the U.S. is considered excessive (but likely welcomed!) in most of Europe #TravelSkills

replying to @GermanyTourism @GermanyTourism A3 Tipping in Europe is not like it is in the U.S. Usually they just round off to the nearest bill or leave a couple euros. #TravelSkills

A3. For #tipping in Europe, find out the local custom, then tip your conscience. That change probably means more to them than it does to you. #TravelSkills #travel

replying to @GermanyTourism @GermanyTourism TIP Find out what the tipping customs are before going, either by searching online or using a good guidebook #TravelSkills

TIP Depending on the type of restaurant and service quality, it can be more or less. #TravelSkills

replying to @GermanyTourism @GermanyTourism A3 In Europe, the tip is usually included in the final bill—and it’s around 10% - but not always! #TravelSkills

replying to @travelskills @travelskills A3. We know service staff rely on gratuities for income, great service = great tips! We are generous, no matter what part of the world we are in (and some parts of the world service folks make very little money). Interested to see other responses. #TravelSkills

A3 Our editors wrote a piece on this (linked here!). A main takeaway: In the U.K., the rule of thumb for restaurant meals is a tip of 10 to 15 percent of the total: https://t.co/8dAvFCTMXD #TravelSkills

A2 Purely for the research, I ate thru enough #cannoli in #Italy to know they've really figured this delectable sweet treat out! #TravelSkills

replying to @travelskills @travelskills Q3: We normally don't tip over 10 percent (with some exceptions, of course)! It’s much more modest in #Europe than it is in #America #TravelSkills
TomFliesDotCom
A3: If you're sitting down eating, always tip 10 percent. If service exceeds your expectations, then you can tip more, of course! #travelskills

replying to @GermanyTourism @GermanyTourism TIP Don’t ask the waiters since they will sometimes tell you that tipping is not included #TravelSkills

replying to @GermanyTourism @GermanyTourism A3 Tipping varies slightly from country to country in Europe, so read up, or ask around so you don’t look like a dumb American #TravelSkills

replying to @Heather_Poole @Heather_Poole I do live in L.A. but sadly never been to a German restaurant near the South Bay. My buddy has one in the Valley but that's way too far (which is why I've never been). #TravelSkills

A3 Tipping in Europe varies by country, but it isn't an expectation as it is in the US. When I left a tip for the best pizza in Italy, the server ran out into the street after I’d left, hugged me and thanked me. #TravelSkills
