Is it rude not to tip in Turkey?


Is it rude not to tip in Turkey? In Turkey people expect tips for services rendered but not at the scale as in the USA. As a rule of thumb for services rendered in restaurants you should tip about 10–15% of the bill. In hotels it would be 10–20 Turkish Liras. For taxi drivers just round up the fare.


Can I brush my teeth with tap water in turkey?

The water is clean, but doesn't taste that well as a result of the filtering or cleaning process. It's perfectly safe to brush your teeth or cook food with tap water. However, for drinking purposes I would stick to bottled water which is cheap and sold on every street corner.


What country is it rude to leave a tip?

Japan. Unlike Spain, Japan is a country where you should not tip at all; it's actually offensive. In the majority of Japanese restaurants a bill is not brought to the table. Instead, payment is accepted at the bar, so even trying to leave a tip for the waiter can be tricky.


Is 20 lira a good tip?

Tipping is a personalthing. I always put my tip in the tip box for alacarte and buffet restaurants. Tip the waiters bar staff early during the holiday. 20 lira is a good tip and you won't feel the need to tip so often.
