What is a Free Walking Tour?
A free tour, or free walking tour, is a historical, cultural, or culinary tour guided by an expert where travelers, at the end of the experience, decide how much to pay for the service provided by the guru based on their satisfaction.
Generally, these tours traverse the historic centers of cities, covering the essentials. However, at GuruWalk, you can also find thematic tours of legends and mysteries, tours exploring a specific architectural style, tours focused on the traces of a wartime event like the World War, and much more.
