Strange Mexico Question

This may seem like a strange question for those of you who have had surgery in Mexico...do you tip the drivers??

somewhere it seems like I did see someone mention you do

Yes its a good idea. They do still work in Mexico so like a resort, they don't make alot of money.... they drive you all over the place, including shopping so its really nice to tip them if you can.

I think it is polite to tip the driver. It is not expected of you.

I did tip both my drivers (one on the way in was covering for the regular driver).

For those that have tipped...did you tip each time they drove you? How much did you tip?

We tipped twice I think. Once on our way back one night we gave them about 50 pesos each for a beer or two, and on the last time Tony drove us we gave $40.

I tipped him when he dropped me off at the airport for the trip home.

Tipped Ernesto $5 on the way from San Diego and $10 on the way back.

I tipped Ernesto 20 there and 20 back in US currency.

Sarah are you going alone? I'm going to be there a day early so I'll be in town for your surgery actually. Do you want me to come with you and hold your hand? I'm more than willing to if you're going to be alone, I know I'd be scared as heck going in alone!
