Do you tip at an all-inclusive resort in Egypt?
Short answer
20–50 EGP per drink, or 100–200 EGP per day
Tips are not included. Cash daily to the staff serving you.
Red Sea all-inclusive packages cover food and drink, not gratuities, and resort staff depend on them. Twenty to fifty pounds per round at the bar, 100–200 pounds a day for a waiter or pool attendant who looks after you, plus housekeeping daily. Some resorts run a shared tip box at reception as an alternative.
Cash or card?
Card tipping is not practical outside of large hotels. Cash in Egyptian pounds is essential; foreign notes are accepted but often at a poor rate.
