Tipping · 🇪🇸
Tipping in Spain
Customary: 5%–10%. Not expected. Round up, or leave a little for a good meal.
At restaurants
What is customary: Not expected — welcome, but nobody is counting
Worked example
On a €50.00 bill, 5% is €2.50, so you would hand over €52.50.
Tour guides
On a “free” walking tour, the tip is the fare: about €10.00 per person.
On a paid tour, 10% of the price on top.
Free walking tours are everywhere here and run on tips. Paid tours: round up for a good guide.
The money
Spain uses the Euro (EUR). Today 1 GBP is 1.1665 EUR.
