CruisinDawn Posted February 18, 2009 #1 Share Posted February 18, 2009 Seen many post regarding this subject so thought I would pass on what is shown in the Mazatlan's Pacific Pearl which is a local Independent Magazine & Visitors guide. "At restaurants 10% to 15% is standard. Check to ensure the tip is not included in your bill. Be sure to differentiate between the 15% tax and a tip. Bellman usually receive $1 per bad and maids 15 pesos per day. It is not necessary to tip taxi drivers unless they have rendered special services, such as waiting while you go into a store or business. Tour guides should be tipped for a tour well done. The boys & girls at the supermarkets typically receive 1 to 2 pesos for helping bag groceries, more if they bring them to your car - they receive no salary. Delivery people should also be tipped." Different countries, different expectations. :) BonVoyage Dawna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k4btzs Posted February 18, 2009 #2 Share Posted February 18, 2009 Good information, thanks for sharing it. I would have never guessed about the expectation to tip baggers at the markets. Glad I know now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
