At restaurants
What is customary: Not expected — welcome, but nobody is counting
Worked example
On a DZD5,000.00 bill, 10% is DZD500.00, so you would hand over DZD5,500.00.
Tour guides
On a “free” walking tour, the tip is the fare: about DZD500.00 per person.
On a paid tour, 10% of the price on top.
Expected on guided tours. Desert trips are tipped per day and pooled among the crew.
The money
Algeria uses the Algerian Dinar (DZD). Today 1 USD is 133.37 DZD.
