FAQ

it really free?
The idea of a free tour comes from "freedom". Instead of paying a fixed price for an experience you're not sure you'll enjoy, you can join for free and, at the end, pay whatever you thought the walk was worth. Our guides work hard to make every experience unforgettable.
Do I need to book?
Yes, as the tours will run only when theres actual bookings. We can't guarantee being able to serve walk-ins on the day.

What language is the tour in?
We run both English and Spanish departures.
Are these the real filming spots?
