More than 450,000 people have already taken a free tour with GuruWalk in over 100 countries. Here are the main reasons that motivated them to book their free tours within our community of passionate guides.
1. It’s a very affordable option
You are free to give what you want at the end of the visit according to your satisfaction and budget. It allows anyone to join without commitment and have access to culture, with the aim of understanding each other better and building a more open, respectful, and tolerant world.
2. You optimize your time
In a few hours, you’ll learn and see the most important parts of the city and get lots of ideas for the rest of your stay. There’s no need to plan your trip. Plus, booking is free, fast and flexible. You can book up to the last minute and cancel whenever you want.
3. The tours are high-quality and entertaining
Because nothing is guaranteed in advance, guides go the extra mile to create an unforgettable, fun experience every time. This quality is reflected in the reviews left by other travelers, and we foster it by supporting our gurus with practical tips and personalized coaching.
4. You support independent guides
GuruWalk gives guides the freedom to work when, how, and where they want, without depending exclusively on an agency. When you book a tour on GuruWalk, you directly support the guide and their family.
5. Experience the city like a local
Discover your destination through the guide’s eyes, with insights into lifestyle and local customs and recommendations to avoid tourist traps. It lets you enjoy a more human experience, feel better integrated into your destination, and travel with more purpose.
6. More and more themed tours
Today, the range of free tours is expanding with routes based on what guides know best, resulting in tours that are always unique, very personal, and original—like a Harry Potter tour in London or one about the forgotten women of Madrid.
7. It’s healthy and sustainable
In almost all our free tours, travelers discover the city on foot, without using polluting vehicles. Plus, walking several kilometers like this is great exercise and accessible to all ages.
8. You can count on a global community
If you’re traveling, it’s almost certain we have free tours you can book there. As you can see here, our community of more than 2,000 passionate guides is present in over 100 countries, and we keep growing.
9. You make friends
Guides become your local friend, helping you before, during, and after the tour with your questions. You can also meet other travelers during the tour and make new friends.
Our goal
We work hard to be the leading free tour platform worldwide, but we also aim for something bigger. We believe travel should be a revealing experience that opens your mind to other cultures.
Thanks to our ever-growing family of travelers and guides, we hope to build a more empathetic world. Will you join the challenge?
