The Funding Of This Site
No walk is here because a guide paid for the place. Nothing can lift one walk above another or push a rival down, and no ranking is sold. The walks on this site are there for one plain reason: they are free, pay what you want, and every reservation happens on the walk's own page, either on GuruWalk or on freetour.com for the walk published there. Links point to those platforms and nowhere else.
Nothing is sold on these pages. Each of the 2 free walking tours in English (1 on GuruWalk, 1 on freetour.com) belongs to an independent local guide, and a reservation is completed on that walk's own page on its platform. The pay what you want model means no price appears anywhere here, and what a walker chooses to give at the end of a walk is entirely up to them. If someone books a walk after following a link from this site, GuruWalk or freetour.com may pay this site a commission at no extra cost to the walker.
When A Link Pays
The money trail is short. A reader clicks a walk link, lands on the GuruWalk page or on freetour.com, and reserves there if they choose to. If that reservation is later paid for on the platform, the platform may pay this site a commission for the referral. No guide pays this site directly, no walker is ever charged more, and the pay-what-you-want amount a walker decides on is untouched by it.
Where Money Changes Hands
- Placement is not for sale, and no guide can buy a higher position in any list on this site.
Ratings In Their Own Scales
Ratings are printed exactly as their platform gives them, with the scale named beside the figure. A GuruWalk walk shows a score out of 5, as on the GuruWalk page. A freetour.com walk shows a score out of 10, as on freetour.com's own page. The two scales are never mixed into one ranking here, because a 4.7 out of 5 and a 9.2 out of 10 are not the same measurement and cannot honestly be compared.
Why Ratings Look Different
A score of 9.2 can look far better than a 4.7 until the scales are read. The first comes from freetour.com, which rates out of 10; the second comes from GuruWalk, which rates out of 5, so a 4.7 sits near the top of its own range. Every rating on this site carries its platform and its scale in the same line for that reason. Review counts also differ from walk to walk, and each figure shown is the platform's own count.
