Should you tip in Bali?

In Indonesia, tipping is not mandatory, as a service charge (5–10%) is already included in the bill at many restaurants and cafes. However, if you liked the service, you can leave a small amount as a token of appreciation. For example, in restaurants without a service charge, you can round up the bill or leave 5–10% of the order.

For hotel porters, it is customary to give 5,000–10,000 rupiah, and for room cleaning — 10,000–20,000 rupiah. For taxi drivers, especially if the ride was comfortable, you can round up the metered fare. Tipping is always at your discretion and is not a strict obligation.

It is important to remember that in establishments catering to tourists, tips are often already accounted for, so check the bill before paying. If you are unsure, it is better to ask the staff if a service charge is included.
