Things to note:
A “free tour” is a guided tour of the city where the history, culture and lifestyle are explained. Nowadays, it is already the first option chosen by travelers in any city they visit.
The concept is a bit confusing. In this case, it means “free pay tour,” meaning that the traveler decides how much to give the guide at the end of the tour based on his or her experience. It is a model known as “reverse ticketing” that empowers the customer and improves the service offered.
