Tipping Estimate for My Trip

[My2QTs]

We have the ddp for seven nights in october. WE are doing one ts per day at normal places (prime time, whispering canyon, akershus, cp, boma...). Can anyone give me a rough estimate of what I am going to pay out in tips over those seven nights? I know it depends on how much we order, but I just need a rough idea of what you think I might need to have budgeted. Ps..there are two adults and two kids.

I would say a rough estimate is $100 to $150.

Adult TS meals (With drink and dessert) seem to average about the $38 that the plan costs, kid ts meals average about the $10 the kids plan costs. So the daily plan is $96, the weekly cost is 672. 18% of that is $120.

Some meals may cost less, some a little more...but that's the joy of averages.

Hope it helps. Sheli

At three of the ones you mentioned, you already know the cost of your meal because they are buffets. At the other two, look at the menu and do a ballpark average on the cost for each adult and each child. Then estimate your tip.

I actually did an excel worksheet with each TS we had booked and priced out each of our meals. For my family of 3 adults (really 2 adults and a 10yr old) and 1 child (7yo), tips averaged out to be $20 for a 15% tip. I know others do 18-20%, but I ran my #s using a 15% tip since that it what I tip for okay service. I'm guessing a safe $ for you would be $140. Try allears.net to look up menus and pricing.
