TIPPING
Tipping in Namibia is widely practised. Here is some information on tipping in Namibia.
In restaurants and bars, 10% to 15% is the accepted tipping standard.
Parking attendants and security guards are common in parking lots and at roadside bays. They generally ask if they can watch your car while you are going about your business - if you agree, a tip of NAD2 and up should be offered, depending on the length of your stay.
In Namibia we still have the luxury of petrol attendants at gas stations to fill up our vehicle tanks, check oil, water and tyre pressure, and clean the windscreens. How much to tip for this special service? From NAD2 up.
The going rate for porters at airports is between NAD5 and NAD10 per piece of luggage.
Hotel porters usually expect a tip of R10 to R20 per porter service.
Tour guides, drivers and safari guides also hugely reply on their tips a part of their income. You will find a guideline on tipping them in out terms and conditions
