Great tour with perfect level of detail!

Great tour with perfect level of detail at each stop. You pay how much you want at the end, completely up to you. I did the "Madrid Essentials Free Tour: Sol, Plaza Mayor, Royal Palace & more" tour and I really enjoyed it and recommend it if you are in Madrid. I did it on my first day there and it was a great way to start the trip. Great organisation from the company, easy to meet and ask questions before if needed.

Sol, Plaza Mayor, the Royal Palace, all with just the right level of detail — sounds like the perfect first-day introduction to Madrid. Thanks for the recommendation, and for highlighting how smoothly Freetour.com had everything organized!

We are super happy with the tour we did…

We are super happy with the tour we did today! It was a wonderful way to discover Brasov with a local, learn more about Romania's history and get some useful tips. The atmosphere was very nice and friendly, thanks to the guide that took time to discuss with all of us and answer all questions. We will definitely recommend this tour. Thank you again :)

This tour was the absolute highlight

This tour was the absolute highlight. Sarah was such a great guide, and Pacino was such a sweet companion.
I already knew a lot about Harry Potter, but I learned so much more. We visited places I wouldn’t have seen on my own, and Sarah shared a wealth of knowledge with us. It was entertaining and very impressive. We always waited for everyone at each stop, so don’t hesitate to join even if you can’t walk very well. It’s absolutely worth it, and be sure to tip the staff at the end of the tour—they do a great job!

Sounds like an absolute highlight indeed, Lisa! Sarah (and Pacino too!) clearly made this Harry Potter tour something special, sharing all those hidden gems and extra knowledge along the way. Thanks so much for the detailed review, and for the kind reminder to fellow travelers about tipping at the end — that means a lot to the guides working with Freetour.com.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

We booked a free walking tour around Hanoi and honestly, it turned into one of the highlights of our trip.

Our guide, Lim, was absolutely amazing. From the very beginning, she was so warm, friendly, and easy to talk to. It never felt like we were just being shown around by a guide — it genuinely felt like we were exploring Hanoi with a friend. The conversations just flowed naturally, we laughed so much, and we got to learn about the city and Vietnamese culture in a way that felt really personal.

What made it even more special was how comfortable everything felt. Within a short time, it honestly felt like we were spending the day with old friends rather than people we had just met. By the end of the tour, we felt like we had made friends for life.

Lim showed us a side of Hanoi that we probably wouldn’t have experienced on our own, and we’re so grateful for that. If you’re visiting Hanoi and have the chance to do a tour with Lim, absolutely go for it. You’ll see the city, learn a lot, have plenty of laughs, and hopefully leave with a new friend — just like we did. ❤️

Nikhil, "friends for life" after just one tour is such a rare and beautiful outcome, and it really shows what Lim brought to the day beyond the usual sightseeing. What stands out most is how naturally the connection formed — not something you can plan for, just genuine warmth meeting genuine curiosity. Thank you for sharing something this heartfelt; Freetour.com is genuinely moved that a walk through Hanoi turned into a friendship you'll carry with you.

We used Freetour when we visited Malaga…

We used Freetour when we visited Malaga recently. With little time to see the city, we felt this might be the best way to get to know it and WOW. What a fantastic tour. Juanlui was amazing, charismatic and knowledgeable. And in the end, he absolutely did not push or make us feel guilty about tipping.
Absolutely recommend this company for anywhere they have availability.

Paul, choosing Freetour.com specifically because of limited time in Málaga, and having it exceed expectations, is exactly the use case we hope to deliver on. What really stands out is you noting that Juanlui never pushed or made you feel guilty about tipping — that's not accidental, it's core to how we want the model to work, so it means a lot that it came through naturally. Thanks for such a strong endorsement, and for trusting the company again wherever your travels take you next!

"Delicate" is such a thoughtful word choice, Yaritza — it suggests real sensitivity and attentiveness toward the group, not just entertainment value. Paired with genuine humor, that's a great combination. Thanks for recommending this "without any hesitation" for Freetour.com!

Lisa is a font of knowledge if all things Madeira.

Lisa gave us 2 tours - essential Funchal and Old town. So helpful! She went over and beyond the expected and deserved to be well rewarded for her time. We were able to plan the rest of our week in Madeira based on her recommendations and now understand so much more of Portuguese history and culture. Attentive and knowledgeable. Highly recommended.

Two tours, plus enough insight to plan out the rest of an entire week in Madeira — Deborah, that's real added value beyond just the tours themselves. "Went over and beyond the expected" is exactly the kind of dedication we hope gets recognized, both in reviews and in tips. Thank you for such a thorough recommendation for Freetour.com and for Lisa's work!

Great tour with lots of information on the Jewish community in Rome

The tour was great. Our tour guide Nicolette was energetic and very informative of the history of the Jewish community over the years. We visited the ghetto area and also Trastevere area. Recommend this tour to all.

Covering both the Jewish Ghetto and Trastevere in one tour gives such a rich, layered view of Rome's history, Sharron, and it sounds like Nicolette's energy matched the depth of the subject matter well. Thanks for recommending this experience so clearly for Freetour.com!

The 'War and Peace in Colombia' walking tour

The 'War and Peace in Colombia' walking tour offered a well-balanced mix of historical insights and cultural context. The guide provided detailed information while being attentive to the group’s engagement. It helped me better understand Colombia’s history and diversity.

Balancing detailed historical information with genuine attentiveness to the group's engagement isn't easy on a topic as complex as Colombia's war and peace history, but it sounds like your guide managed it well. Thank you for such a thoughtful review — Freetour.com is glad this tour helped deepen your understanding of the country.

A bit dissapointed

We wanted more ghost stories and mystery.
But the guide was good, but we wanted to see more scary places..... So a bit disappointed.

Glenn, thanks for being honest about this — it sounds like the guide did a good job overall, but the tour didn't quite deliver on the spookier, mysterious angle you were hoping for. That kind of feedback on content and theme is genuinely useful for us.

If you'd like, feel free to send more detail to support@freetour.com about which tour this was — we're always looking to make sure a tour's description matches what guests actually experience.

Necessary counterpart

It is very necessary to not only hear the stories the Catholic Church is telling us but to also hear about the horrible crimes they committed throughout the centuries.

Johanna, thank you for this perspective — presenting a more complete, balanced view of history, including its harder truths, is something we think matters when it comes to guiding people through complex historical narratives. We appreciate you highlighting this aspect of the tour for Freetour.com.

A genuine "deep dive" rather than a surface-level overview is a great sign of a well-researched tour, and it sounds like Leandro delivered exactly that on Brazilian history. Thanks for the strong feedback for Freetour.com!
