I gave the maid $20 on the 1st day. I gave the tracker/driver $25 on the 1st day. Things went great from there on out. Anything my wife or I wanted was no problem. That was in 2002---probably needs to be a little more now. I also gave them American money----they seemed to like that alot. Outfitter/guide wanted me to change US into Rand at the airport. I'm guessing maybe a tax deal. Tip the cook on day one also. Benefits are real tasty.
