Hi Larry, actually I should imagine a Euro would be much easier then trying to figure in tips with lira...all those 0000's... It drove us mad. <BR>In Italy always be sure that a service charge has not been included on the check, as often times it is. My husband and I usually leave an additional 5% when the service charge is on the bill... (if the service was good) and the standard 15-20% if it is not included. As of today (I just looked it up) 122 Euros equals $106.00 USD so it shouldn't be terribly hard to figure in gratuity since it's so close to US. Taxi's we tip roughly 10-15% of the fare price,,, not the price for the fare plus luggage.. pretty much follow the same rules you would if you were in any city.
