Tipping · 🇵🇱

Tipping in Poland

Customary: 10%–15%. 10% is normal. Never say "thank you" as you hand over money — it means keep the change.

At restaurants

What is customary: A share of the bill, at any size

Worked example

On a zł100.00 bill, 10% is zł10.00, so you would hand over zł110.00.

Tour guides

On a “free” walking tour, the tip is the fare: about zł50.00 per person.

On a paid tour, 10% of the price on top.

Free walking tours are a Kraków and Warsaw institution and run on tips. Say what it is for — handing money over silently reads as "keep the change".

The money

Poland uses the Polish Zloty (PLN). Today 1 USD is 3.7374 PLN.
