What’s Not Included Transportation to and from the trip including airfare, airport pickup/drop or train travel Lodging before and after the trip Personal items purchased during the trip Some meals are not included (check your itinerary) Gratuities for your Trip Leader(s) are not included in your trip price. Industry standard is 7.5-10% of your trip price for the guide team. Local currency is preferred and unless you want to tip separately, guides will divide tips amongst themselves. Normally, we suggest an amount of US $10-15 per person per day for biking guide, $5-7/person/day for driver and about $2-3/person/day put in the Kitty for other local service at tour hotels and group meals and for local culture/nature guide(s). If your group size is more than 4 people then you can also take above suggestion as per couple instead of per person. Finally, please tip your guides at your discretion, based on their level of professionalism, guest care and service as it varies in good deal from one culture to another. Above is a recommendation as per industry standard and outlook. For a particular country that you are traveling to, please get in touch with your tour consultant to understand local tipping guidelines. Beverages
