   We apply the local Egypt percentage and show the total with tip.

• 1

  Tipping in Egypt is custom, not obligation: this dataset assumes roughly 10% in restaurants and 5% at hotels when no service charge is added — check the bill first, since many venues in Luxor already include service.

• 2

  Prices behind this tipping planner move with season and local events in Luxor: re-run the calculation close to your booking date instead of trusting a figure saved weeks earlier, because seasonal swings can move totals by a third or more.

• 3

  Compare tipping options for Luxor on totals, not headline rates: a cheaper nightly price with expensive transport can cost more overall, so run the full calculation for each option before you commit to one.

• Tipping Luxor twice: when service is already printed on the bill, adding the 10% restaurant norm from this dataset pays the server a second time. Read the invoice line first, then apply percentages only where service is absent.

• Forgetting hotels in the Luxor cash envelope: porters and housekeeping sit near 5% of the service cost in this dataset, yet most visitors budget only the 10% restaurant line. Cover both when sizing the daily money you carry.
