Tipping a private driver who stays with you for a full week is highly customary and deeply appreciated. A standard, generous tip is generally around 10 to 15 USD per day, handed to them at the very end of the trip as a lump sum.

If the driver went above and beyond, acting as a brilliant tour guide, finding great local restaurants, and driving extremely safely, tipping 20 USD per day is a fantastic way to show your gratitude for their hard work.
