Jane Austen - about as a good commercial entity as the Royal Family it seems in bringing tourists into Brtain? Reply. About £10. Less than many Americans will feel morally obliged to tip a tour driver every day. The only small problem: in a county with as many lovely paths as Hampshire, Ms Austen seems to have gone out of her way to have chosen the dullest stretches of countryside to be associated with.
