Is it standard to tip in Argentina?

🌍 Part of the My Guide Network 180+ destinations worldwide

There is not much of a tipping culture in Argentina but there are a few exceptions. When eating in a restaurant, if it is not already included in the bill, diners should add on a small gratuity if the service has been up to standard. Hotel porters, hair dressers and other people in the service industry will expect a small tip for their help but this is by no means compulsory.
