It's worth mentioning that the taxiways are marked by signs as well. Almost always pilots use a chart, ie a map which shows the airport from the air. Runways are numbered according to their magnetic bearing (runway 22 is roughly aligned to 220 degrees magnetic for example) while taxiways are lettered.
While tipping for taxi drivers is entirely normal, it certainly isn't a requirement in the UK. Indeed, your passengers should never feel pressured into tipping.
Who gives the pilot permission to land or takeoff from the airport? Air Traffic Controller - This person works in the control tower and talks to pilots by radio. An Air Traffic Controller tells the pilots when and where they can land their planes at the airport.
Only when there's enough space for the aircraft to start taxiing forward is the pushback vehicle uncoupled. From that point on, the pilot steers the aircraft to the runway.
