[quote=WANHU,465970]It should be a lesson to tour guides in China that tips are not part of the fixed income. When accepting the job as a tour guide, look at the salary offered and try to exclude tips and other perks except basic salary and fixed allowance(s). Probably only businessmen need a business guide, while most leisure and casual travellers, they they can browse the area or city at their own pace, no hurry. I used to ask a foreigner in Beijing about a guide, he told me he came to China for sightseeing and he has all the information either on the net or by reading maps and travelogues. Why pay RMB400+ per day for a guide when you easily can travel on your own and spend less than RMB50? Time indeed has changed. Wan[/quote]
