Short answer

In Türkiye, tipping your transfer driver is not mandatory and is not included in the price; it is entirely up to you. If you were happy with the service, rounding up or leaving a small tip is a common and appreciated gesture.

When do people tip?

Tipping is common when the driver helps with heavy luggage, waits after a long delay or makes the ride especially pleasant. Not tipping is not considered rude.

Payment and currency

With Limoxe, you pay cash in the car at the end of the ride. If you want to tip, you can add it in cash at the same time.
