Rare Keith1010 Posted July 2, 2010 #3 Share Posted July 2, 2010 Euros would be preferable since this is the local currency. If you do not have any, you could use USA currency versus not giving a tip but I would highly recommend giving them a tip in Euros. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krazy Kruizers Posted July 2, 2010 #4 Share Posted July 2, 2010 Definitely in Euros. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soccerref Posted July 2, 2010 #5 Share Posted July 2, 2010 It is good manners to tip people in the currency of their country, particularly in Europe and areas of the world away from the US and Caribbean. I'm not sure how appreciative a US porter would be if a tip was offered in Euros or pounds sterling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pris993 Posted July 3, 2010 #6 Share Posted July 3, 2010 People who work in the travel industry in Europe are very saavy - most we have come in contact with have money in many currencies -- so tipping in dollars is no problem for such services.
