Gratuities

Gratuities are at the discretion of passengers. Tipping practices vary widely between countries and cultures. At Croisi Europe, tips are distributed equally among all crew members. This gesture from our passengers reflects their appreciation for the quality of service and attention they have received throughout their cruise, at every level. How much should I tip? A tip of €5 to €10 per person per day is a common guideline, but each passenger is, of course, free to give any amount they feel appropriate. For your convenience, an envelope will be placed in your cabin on your final evening aboard. You can leave it in the designated box at the reception desk when you disembark. This information applies to river and sea cruises operated by vessels in the Croisi Europe fleet.
