Tipping in the Riviera Maya
- Servers: 5-10%
- Bartenders: 5-10%
- Bell Boys: 5 pesos per bag
- $1 USD per bag
- Housekeepers: $1-3 USD per cleaning
- This would be per couple. If there are 6 of you in a condo, $3-9
- An envelope is left for your to leave your tip. That way there is no confusion if you have other cash "lying around"
- Taxi Drivers: ZERO
- There is no meter. Everything is a flat fee between zones. Many drivers charge more than they are supposed to for fares. Always ask ahead of time what the fare will be.
- NO TIPPING TAXI DRIVERS unless they are handling a lot of luggage or there was some extraordinary service provided (they waited for you in the store).
- Grocery Baggers:
- The baggers are usually elderly men. Although they may be wearing a uniform, there are not receiving any salary. They are trying to pick up some extra money.
- I usually give them the coins that I get for change, But depending on how many groceries they bagged
