Knowing how much to tip in the UK can be confusing, let alone abroad.
To help holidaymakers get it right this summer, the Good Housekeeping Institute has looked into tipping etiquette around the world.
Sara Benwell, consumer editor at Good Housekeeping, explained: โIn Japan, there is a no-tipping culture and you may offend your waiter if you try to give him some money, while in America, tips are very much expected, and itโs rude if you donโt leave anything.
โIn France, the service charge must be included in the bill by law. However, many locals will also leave some coins as an extra sign of appreciation.โ
Benwell added that most countries donโt expect you to leave a tip in a bar, but America is an exception, where itโs customary to leave $1 per drink.
Additionally you may want to consider leaving tips in hotels abroad for porters and cleaning staff. Benwell recommends ยฃ1 per bag for porters and ยฃ1 per person for a room cleaner.
