*Tips are at your discretion and should reflect the quality of service you receive from our staff. However, as this question is often asked,
guides are tipped an average of 600 USD per week for two fishermen. For the kitchen staff, 20 USD per day per fisherman. Since you will have different guides during your stay, we prefer that tips be given to the manager so that he can distribute the amount fairly among the guides. If you wish to give a bonus to one of the guides, you may do so directly. McKenzie River Lodge does not and will never keep a portion of tips given to its staff.
