A Free Tour is a guided walking tour of the city with no set price. If you get bored, don’t like the guide, or simply decide to leave, you’re free to walk away at any time, with no obligation.
How do a Free Walking Tour work?
A Free Tour is an experience where you join a group of travelers at a specific time and location in Budapest. A guide will accompany the group on a tour of the city’s most stunning and remarkable sights. Throughout the tour, the guide shares captivating stories, anecdotes, and fascinating facts about Budapest, making the visit both enjoyable and enriching. It’s a great way to explore the city with fellow travelers, guided by an expert who knows it inside and out.
The Free Tours don’t have a fixed price: you join with no obligation, and at the end, you decide how much to tip the guide based on how much you enjoyed the experience. Our guides are freelancers who rely on tips, which motivates them to provide the best possible service.
What’s the difference between a Free Tour and a Walking Tour?
A Free Tour is a walking tour where you decide the amount of the tip at the end. There’s no fixed price, just your contribution based on your satisfaction. On the other hand, a traditional walking tour has a set price that you must pay before joining.
How much to tip a free tour guide?
If you decide to stay with us until the end of the Free Tour of Budapest (and we’re confident you will), you’ll have the opportunity to show your appreciation for the guide’s work by giving a financial contribution. There’s no set amount: some people leave €5, others €50. The important thing to remember is that the continuation of this service relies on your generosity.
At Go Zeppelin Tours, we don’t offer paid tours. We simply ask that you fairly and freely evaluate the guide’s work. We promise to give our best so you can fall in love with Budapest just as much as we did and offer you a unique, unforgettable experience. Ultimately, it’s all up to you.
Why do we ask for a tip?
We ask for a tip because, although the tour is defined as ‘free’, our guides dedicate time and effort to providing a high-quality experience. Tipping helps us sustain this service and ensures that our guides can earn a fair living.
This approach benefits both travelers and local guides, creating a win-win situation. At Go Zeppelin Tours, we’re passionate about sharing our love for Budapest with all visitors, regardless of their budget. This way, you can explore the cultural and historical treasures of the Hungarian capital in an accessible way, while also supporting us in our passion: sharing the secrets of the ‘Pearl of the Danube’ with you.
We’ll show you all that Budapest has to offer, and you decide how much to tip!
