    Tipping

    Travellers Tips
    Tipping
    Tipping is not standard practice in Australia. You may wish to add an extra 10% to the bill at a restaurant if you are impressed with the service but it is not mandatory. Most Australians, however, when going to a good restaurant will expect to pay an additional 10%.

    Restaurant prices carry no extra taxes or service charges and the food in Australia is plentiful, of high quality and cheap.

    Taxi drivers appreciate a tip but they will not be insulted if you fail to tip.
