About us:
In March 2017, Rick and Andrea (confessed Travel Addicts) started a Facebook Group called Travel Addicts as a way to share their travel photos and videos not just with their own respective friend's lists - but with the world. Part of the reason was for bragging rights (I mean, thatâs kind of the point of sharing photos, right?), but also to help answer questions to others about the destinations they have visited.
After inviting some of our friends and family, it grew and grew - and as of June 2019, the group has grown to over 200,000 members! One reason for our success, we believe, is that we have done our best to ensure only high-quality photos and videos get shared, all while limiting the use of commercial content.

Tipping is not expected in Europe. I feel like no one should corrupt the system. It is out of control in US and it makes lot of people uncomfortable .
Very true
Should I tip in Italy? No.
How much should I tip in Italy? No.
Should I tip in high end restaurants in Italy? No.
Should I tip in bars? No.,
Should I tip the taxi? Don't take taxi in Italy đ.
Should I tip at gas station? What are you crazy? Put the gasoline on you own...
I'm italian and I never tipped in my life. And if coperto is more than 1-2 euros run away, that's a stupid place for tourist. And if a pizzeria got a coperto run away, you will not get bread in a pizzeria, no reason to pay coperto. And I know it's a little bit on the edge right now since inflation sucks right now, but first course in any restaurant should be max 10âŹ, 12-15⏠if it's a really really fancy item like fresh pasta with tartufo fresco. Do not pay 10⏠for a basic pasta al pomodoro.
And for the second course stay under 15âŹ.
Great restaurants with amazing food that are not made just for tourists will usually make a first course for about 5-7⏠and a second course for 10âŹ.
Pay attention to the drink price too... basic water should not cost more than 2⏠for 75 cl.
We are currently in Italy and have been discussing how to tip, thanks so much for answering our questions. You two have been our experts in planning our trip these past few months, grazie!
Thank you đ
Thank you so very much gentlemen, for all your valuable advice that you have been sharing through your beautiful channel. Your love and passion for what youâre doing is so evident. †you both!

Fantastic video!
Thank you đđ»
Guys, you are fantastic! And you probably can read my mind, cause this is just the topic I was wondering about right now :) And thank you for your videos about Rome and Napoli, I feel well prepared for my oncoming trip to those cities. It's this Saturday, I just can't wait!
Thank you we are very glad we could help let us know how you enjoy your trip
Thank you for your thorough tip coverage! Grazie mille. đ
Thank you đđ»
Thank you for another wonderful video! Your tips are very helpful. I am taking notes to prepare for my first trip to Italy!
Thank you đđ»
Hello guy's. Another great video. first, Rick, love the red glasses. When we are in Italy, we use the same tipping methods. We have a few favorite restaurants and usually tip a little more. That's because the waiter knows us and what we like. Sometimes there is no wait. As far as taxi's, we round up. Hotel bellman, usually 1 euro per bag. They are very appreciated. We will be back in Florence in May and then again August thru September. Hope to see more videos.
Thank you Jeffrey đ
Wb 5star hotels butler service, luggage, evening turndown, housekeeping etc?
Usually it is not necessary, but if you feel that they deserve a euro or two it is fine
From South Africa and planning to travel to Italy (plus one day in Geneva and 2 days in Paris ;-) with my wife and kids in July ... My entire Italian itinarary is based on your videos. Your content is absolutely excellent, no time wasted, to the point, informative, well thought out and structured ... basically everything a first-time traveller to Italy should know. Can you please perhaps consider a video on how Trenitalia reservations work and then cover the Eurail pass vs point-to point train tickets? Im a little bit in the dark, and a little anxious to be honest, where train reservations are concerned ... how to do them ... when to do them ... what happens if I cannot get a reservation on a train and miss a day or time in my next city ... Thank you and keep up the brilliant videos and content.
Thank you so much for your kind words. We will definitely consider making those videos soon
We are currently traveling in Italy and the restaurants are not adding service fee on the bill and at the bottom of the credit card receipt states "tip not included". Do I need to tip, if so, what percentage should it be? Thank you. Michael
No you do not need to tip, service should always be included
Happened to me today. Didnt tip.
No tip is necessary since tipping by Italians is not customary. Itâs not about good or bad service, it just not customary
NO â
You shouldnât tip in Italy. Believe me the Italians do not tip. You donât tip taxis either or bartenders. You shouldnât be advising you should tip because itâs not customary except for Americans. Believe me I know after living with locals for 35 years,
