Tipping is an expected gift as part of your appreciation, although, it is not compulsory, a component of your tour program. Tipping is a gesture that serves in expression for exceptional service rendered, and tips given depend on the traveler’s discretion.

Tipping is another sign of a direct way that you are positively supporting the African community. Although tipping may not be customary for you, it is a direct source of income for those working in the tourism industry. Offering a tip is in form of ‘thank you.

The best tipping method for someone who has served a big group should be planned in advance, and not when you are all rushing to say goodbye. A better suggestion should be for each member in the group by contributing by putting their tip in an envelope. This works best for groups or they should gather as they present their gifts to the recipient(s), offering their sign of saying thank you and showing their appreciation for the services. This tipping method brings their action in an open style, providing a friendly and appreciative nature with the group and the recipient(s).
