How much should you tip in South Africa?

Tipping 10–15% at restaurants is standard, more for great service. Many waiters earn a low basic wage (or none) and rely on tips. Check the bill first: some restaurants add a service charge automatically for larger tables.

For car guards, petrol attendants and delivery drivers, R5–R20 is common, or more for extra help such as checking your tyres or carrying heavy shopping.
