How much should you tip in Bulgaria?
In much of the world, there has long been a tradition of rewarding service workers personally, above and beyond established rates. The tradition of tipping originates in England, when guests who were invited to tea, stayed late and stayed overnight, left the hosts' servants a reward for service. In the modern world, tipping traditions vary. In Japan, for example, if you leave money on the table, the waiters will rush to catch up with you to return what you forgot. It will never occur to them that this is left for them.

Bulgarian souvenirs overview
Despite what people say, tourism remains the major source of income in Bulgaria. Profit from a lavender cultivation, honey gathering and cattle breeding has nothing to do with earnings that the state and its citizens get from a tourist flow.
