Tipping Culture
Tipping is not expected but appreciated
Tipping is generally not too common in Kyrgyzstan but appreciated. It is more common in larger hotels or upscale establishments catering to tourists. Tipping should be seen as a way to show appreciation for good service. You should tip in local currency, the Kyrgyzstani Som.
