Tipping is very much the done thing in South Africa, and never an embarrassment for the recipient.
In restaurants, look to give 10%-15% to waiters, while luxury hotel porters usually expect a tip of R10–R20 per service. For airport porters the going rate is R5–10 per item of luggage. On safari, we recommend tipping R160 (about £7) per day to your safari guide and/or ranger.
Look to tip car valets, petrol attendants and newspaper vendors a few rand each per service.
