At the afternoon meeting, a question came up about the cost of tips for the tour guides and bus driver. Here is a description taken from the EF website.


Suggested Tip Amounts

Tour Director
Your tour director is with your group 24 hours a day, taking care of all the logistics on tour and becoming a partner and friend on the road. We suggest tipping your tour director $6 per person, per day.

Bus Driver
Set aside an additional $3 per person, per day for your bus driver.

Local Guides
Plan to tip local guides $1 to $2 per person. Many group leaders tip local guides for half-day sightseeing tours. On a full-day excursion, it is typical to give a small tip to both the professional local guide and the day's driver.
