My point is that it doesn't really matter how much you agree to pay the driver - that amount is always only a portion of what he will get for the day's activity. If you eat at a restaurant he will always receive a commission on whatever you pay and will always be given food even if you don't buy a meal for him. Go to a silver outlet and your driver wil get 40-505 OF whatever you pay. Pay admission at the Zoo and he will receive about 40% as at any other tourist attraction with an admission fee. You will of course never see the transactions but they are universal.
