Last year, there were more than 29 million overnight stays in Rome made by tourists. Popular Rome attractions include the Vatican, the Vatican Museum, the Colosseum, the Roman Forum, crypts, and the markets are all popular places to visit while in Rome. If you&#8217;re seeing the sites in Rome with the help of a tour guide, you&#8217;ll want to know whether you should leave a tip for your tour guide at the end or not.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Do_You_Need_To_Tip_Tour_Guides_In_Rome\"><\/span>Do You Need To Tip Tour Guides In Rome?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Tipping is not required but it is of course appreciated. For Italians, it would not be customary to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tipwho.com\/article\/how-much-to-tip-a-tour-guide-in-italy\/\">tip tour guides<\/a>, but some guides expect tips from foreigners. Feel free to give tips for good service, but only do so if the tour guide works for a company, not if they are self-employed. If you do want to leave a tip, a rule of thumb is to give a couple of euros per person to the guide.<\/p>\n<p>Remember that Italian <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tipwho.com\/article\/where-is-it-considered-rude-to-tip-tipping-customs\/\">customers would not tip tour guides as the local tipping<\/a> etiquette does not require a tip in Italy for tour guides. As the famous saying goes &#8220;When in Rome, do as the Romans do&#8221; so you don&#8217;t need to feel bad about not leaving a tip.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Much_Should_I_Tip_My_Tour_Guide_In_Rome\"><\/span>How Much Should I Tip My Tour Guide In Rome?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Although the tipping culture does not require it if you want to tip your guide, a rule of thumb is to give a couple of euros per person.<\/p>\n<div class=\"custom-related-posts\"><strong>Related posts:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tipwho.com\/article\/how-much-to-tip-a-tour-guide-in-italy\/\">How Much To Tip a Tour Guide in Italy<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tipwho.com\/article\/tipping-tour-guides-sri-lanka\/\">Tipping Tour Guides Sri Lanka<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tipwho.com\/article\/tipping-in-iceland-tour-guide\/\">Tipping in Iceland Tour Guide (Accurate Tip Guide)<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tipwho.com\/article\/tipping-in-poland\/\">Tipping In Poland (Easy To Remember) (Travel Guide)<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tipwho.com\/article\/does-verizon-work-in-italy-use-your-phone-in-italy\/\">Does Verizon Work In Italy?
