Is tipping required in Tanzania and Kenya?
Most major hotels and restaurants include a service charge in the price of the service. Tipping is not obligatory and is entirely at your discretion. Porters at airports, hotels or lodges may be tipped $1.00 per piece of baggage. A gratuity of 10% is customary at restaurants and bars where a service charge is not included. Note that on safaris, tips are considered part of a guide/drivers pay. A tip for your guide of $2.00 to $5.00 per person per day is appropriate.
