Many restaurant and hotel bills include a service charge which helps to make up staff salaries which are traditionally very low compared to western salaries. So it is customary, if you have enjoyed your meal or experience, to leave a tip of between 10 12% on top of the bill. On liveaboards, it is usually customary to leave a tip for the crew and dive guides.
