Tipping guide

Tipping in Finland

Finland is one of the easiest countries in Europe for this: tipping is not part of the culture, prices include service, and nobody will look twice if you pay exactly what the bill says.

Common questions

Do you tip in Finland?

Not normally. Rounding up a restaurant bill is as far as most people go, and even that is optional.

Do you tip taxi drivers in Finland?

No. Round the fare up if you like, but it is not expected.

What about tour guides and hotel staff in Finland?

Guides on husky safaris or northern lights tours will appreciate a small tip. Hotel housekeeping is not tipped as a rule.
