Sometimes it's hard to know, especially if you're a young traveler with little to no travel experience. Funny story - I flew down to a business conference for my first trip out of town by myself. I was 23 years old. I get off the shuttle, the hotel guy brings the bags inside. He asks if he can bring them to my room for me, and I say "no" thinking that's ridiculous, I'm already going to my room and I can take my own luggage. So then I tell him "thanks," grab my luggage and start walking away. Behind me I hear him say "thank you very much sir." He then more loudly says "THANK YOU VERY MUCH SIR!" and I nod to him and tell him "thanks." He say it one more time even louder and I just ignore him and go on my way. I call my girlfriend that night to tell her about my odd encounter and she laughed, saying "you were supposed to tip him, he was asking you for a tip." I said "for what?" and she said that's just what you do. I said I wouldn't have even known what to give him.
