Page 6 of 6 Tipping in Restaurants, Bars, Cafes & Taxis - Middle East Egypt – Tipping is integral to the Egyptian experience. Keep small increments of Egyptian currency - 1-Egyptian pound (LE) notes, 25 and 50 piastres - to tip bathroom attendants, museum guards and anyone who offers you services that you have requested. In restaurants, tip 10%. Taxi drivers do not receive tips above the agreed upon fare unless they have performed some additional service. Bellmen can receive up to LE5 per bag for good service. Tip bartenders around a $1 per drink. |
