href=\"https:\/\/www.tipwho.com\/article-category\/tipping\/\">Good tipping etiquette<\/a> includes the guide\/ranger, tracker, housekeeping, and cooking staff. Staff in the safari tourism industry rely on guest tips to supplement their wages, so your tips are appreciated. While the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tipwho.com\/article\/car-service-tipping-etiquette\/\">tip amount is at your discretion at lodges that don&#8217;t include a service<\/a> charge, we provide tipping guidelines in the following sections.<\/p>\n<p>Keep in mind that only a few lodges are set up to add tips on a\u00a0guest&#8217;s\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tipwho.com\/article\/4147-credit-card\/\">credit card<\/a>. For that reason, you should have enough South African rand on hand before heading to the lodge. Otherwise, staff will also <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tipwho.com\/article\/does-dollar-general-accept-google-pay\/\">accept tips in\u00a0US dollars<\/a>\u00a0or other major currencies.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_much_do_you_tip_safari_guides\"><\/span>How much do you tip safari guides<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>How much do you tip your\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tipwho.com\/article\/tipping-in-kenya-safari\/\">safari guide<\/a> in South Africa? At a luxury safari lodge, you can leave your safari guide\/ranger 200 \u2013 300 South African rand (abbreviated as R) per family per day. Otherwise, R100 to R200 rand per family per day is more than enough to show your appreciation.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_much_do_you_tip_trackers_and_spotters\"><\/span>How much do you tip trackers and spotters?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>How much do you tip a safari\u00a0tracker\u00a0in\u00a0South Africa? If you are staying at a luxury lodge, leave your safari\u00a0tracker\u00a0100 \u2013 200 rand per family per day. Otherwise, 50 \u2013 100 rand per day is an appropriate tip.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_much_do_you_tip_the_lodge_staff\"><\/span>How much do you tip the lodge staff?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>How much should you tip the\u00a0lodge staff? At a luxury lodge, R50 to R100 per family per day can be left as a combined tip. Otherwise, R25 to R50 per family per day is standard. The lodge\u00a0service staff\u00a0includes\u00a0housekeeping\/cleaners, cooks,\u00a0waiters,\u00a0waitresses, and\u00a0porters.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_much_do_you_tip_airport_transfer_drivers\"><\/span>How much do you tip airport transfer drivers?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The standard rule of thumb is to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tipwho.com\/article\/charter-bus-driver-tip\/\">tip your\u00a0airport\u00a0transfer driver<\/a> 10 percent of the fare.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_should_you_leave_the_tip\"><\/span>How should you leave the tip?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Typically, a\u00a0safari lodge\u00a0will leave three\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tipwho.com\/article\/hotel-tip-envelopes\/\">envelopes\u00a0for tips<\/a>: one for the\u00a0safari guide, a second for the\u00a0tracker, and a third for the\u00a0housekeeping\u00a0and cooking staff. Generally, tips should be personally given to the\u00a0safari guide\u00a0and\u00a0tracker\u00a0but left at the lodge office for the\u00a0housekeeping\u00a0and cooking staff.<\/p>\n<p>When leaving tips at the lodge office, you will leave them with the office manager or in a\u00a0communal tip box.\u00a0The local currency\u00a0is appreciated, but the\u00a0foreign currency\u00a0equivalent, such as dollars or euros, can also be given if you don&#8217;t have enough rand with you.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_you_tip_in_US_dollars_in_South_Africa\"><\/span>Can you tip in US dollars in South Africa?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>While US dollars are widely accepted in South Africa, it is recommended to tip in the local currency, which is the South African Rand (ZAR). Tipping in US dollars may not be convenient for the recipient as they will have to convert it into ZAR, and they may also lose money due to unfavorable exchange rates. Therefore, it is best to always keep some ZAR on hand for tipping purposes when traveling in South Africa.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tipping_at_private_game_reserves_in_South_Africa\"><\/span>Tipping at private game reserves in South Africa<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Yes, it is customary to tip at private game reserves in South Africa. The amount to tip will depend on the level of service provided and the duration of your stay. It is recommended to tip around ZAR 200-300 per day for a guide or ranger and ZAR 100-150 per day for housekeeping staff. However, it is important to note that gratuity is always voluntary and should be given only if you are satisfied with the service provided. Some private game reserves may have guidelines on tipping, so it&#8217;s always best to check with the management before tipping.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tipping_in_South_Africa_taxi\"><\/span>Tipping in South Africa taxi<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>While it&#8217;s not required, taxi drivers in South Africa appreciate tips. A tip of around 10% of the fare is considered appropriate, but you can round up the fare to the nearest whole number as a simpler option. If you receive exceptional service, such as help with luggage or a particularly pleasant ride, you may choose to tip more than 10%.<\/p>\n<p>It is important to note that not all taxis in South Africa are metered, and in these cases, it&#8217;s best to negotiate a price upfront before starting your journey.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tipping_in_South_Africa_restaurants\"><\/span>Tipping in South Africa restaurants<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Yes, it is customary to tip at restaurants in South Africa. The standard tipping amount is usually around 10-15% of the total bill, but this can vary depending on the level of service provided. If the service charge has already been included in the final bill, there is no need to add an additional tip unless you feel that the service was exceptional. It is also important to note that some restaurants may have a policy of pooling tips among all staff members, so it&#8217;s best to check before leaving a gratuity.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tipping_in_South_Africa_hotels\"><\/span>Tipping in South Africa hotels<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Yes, it is customary to tip at hotels in South Africa for various services such as housekeeping, luggage handling, and room service. For housekeeping staff, leaving a tip of ZAR20-50 per day is recommended. For luggage handlers, a tip of ZAR10-20 per bag is appropriate, while room service staff can receive a tip of around 10% of the total bill depending on the quality of service provided. However, it&#8217;s always best to check if a service charge has already been included in the final bill before tipping.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conclusion\"><\/span>Conclusion<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>In conclusion, tipping is expected in South Africa&#8217;s safari lodges. It shows appreciation for the service provided and helps support local economies. Remember that tipping should always be done at your discretion and based on your satisfaction with the service received. By following our guidelines for tipping during on South African safari, you can help support the local communities while showing appreciation for their excellent service.<\/p>\n<div class=\"custom-related-posts\">\n<strong>Related posts:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tipwho.com\/article\/tipping-in-south-africa\/\">Tipping in South Africa (Etiquette Guide)<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tipwho.com\/article\/tipping-in-kenya-safari\/\">The Best Guide To Tipping On Safari In Kenya (Who, How Much)<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tipwho.com\/article\/tipping-tour-guides-sri-lanka\/\">Tipping Tour Guides Sri Lanka<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":9350,"template":"","article-category":[66,129,44,127,128,67,2273],"article-tag":[69,132,2897,5259,4615,5258,81,2708,3703,5249,5253,5257,130,5261,1767,2820,3204,80,2280,5262,5250,5254,281,78,75,223,2409,2274,68,5251,857,5252,2945,49,5260,64,5256,79,5248,5255,3633,2402,137,1301],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v22.3 (Yoast SEO v22.3) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Tipping On South African Safaris (Complete Guide)<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Tipping On South Africa Safaris: Tips are an important part of any safari vacation in South Africa.
