Hi, Thanks very much. Un-Cruise recommends tipping in the range of 5% – 10% of your total cruise fare. From conversations that I overheard, that seemed to be what the majority of passengers were doing…maybe a little more towards 5% -8% is what I heard more, depending upon the category of their cabin. Certainly if you were in the top suite, a 10% of total cruise fare would be the norm. It’s such a unique trip and the crew splits all of the tips equally. They work hard without breaks and do double-duty for various jobs, too. I hope you get to cruise with Un-Cruise on the Columbia river soon.

Hi Sherry,
Outstanding review of your Un-Cruise Columbia River trip last year. I have a question regarding tipping of the crew and staff on these smaller cruise ships. Whats expected and what did you experience?
thank You

In reply to Nicola. Hi Nicola, you are right. And a trip on these two rivers is one of my favorites. Thanks for your comment. Sherry

Un-Cruise is a fabulous way to learn of the history of the Columbia and Snake Rivers and you are very well looked after. I love the idea of the staff acting out skits of known characters who lived in these historic times.
