Things to Consider:
- Our free tours are organized and led by brilliant freelance guides, who decide the exact route based on their expertise (and a bit of adventure). Robin and the Tourguides connect you with these fantastic guides and ensure things run smoothly behind the scenes.
- As the tours take you through busy city streets, please watch out for traffic, cobblestones, and those fearless pigeons. Neither the guides nor Robin and the Tourguides are responsible for accidents or damages, so stay sharp out there!
- Free tours are for groups of up to 7 people. If your group is 8 or more (even if you try sneaking in as two smaller groups—we see you!), we’ll have to kindly ask you to book a private tour instead.
