NOTES:
1. Dear guest, in case the tour will be booked by 4 people or less, I am really sorry but the tour will probably be canceled. We will try to find a solution so that we can do the tour. However, I will notify you the day before the tour.
2. Dear guest, the tour is scheduled to last approximately 3 hours and 15 minutes but depending on the walking pace of all participants, it may take longer.
3. Dear guest, for our convenience the tour start time may change depending on the weather, especially during summer to avoid the heat or when bad weather is forecast. We will decide and agree together the day before the tour about it.
4. Dear guest, free tours do not have a fixed price and each person leaves the guide at the end of the tour, the amount he/she deems appropriate (depending on the level of satisfaction) but taking into account that the guide pays the Guru walk platform a commission of 2 euros for each person who participates in the tour.
