How much should I tip?

Tipping is not customary in China, though the influx of Western tourists has taught many Chinese hotel staff to expect tips. Should you wish to tip a bellboy, you might give 10RMB per bag. Tipping is unnecessary in restaurants and taxis. On all Ultimate China tours, the China Host takes care of tipping all local service staff including tour guides, drivers and bellboys. Guests are given guidelines as to the recommended tip for the China Host at the end of an Ultimate China tour, as well as recommended guide and driver tips for a China Escapades tour.
