Privacy Policy

Everything published here is description, nothing more. No card is charged, no basket is held and no reservation is made on these pages. Each of the 28 free walking tours covered is run by an independent local guide, and a place on any of them is booked through GuruWalk alone. With no transaction ever passing through the site, there is almost no personal information it could collect. The sections below describe the little that exists, and where responsibility shifts once you leave for a guide's GuruWalk page.

What Data A Visit Can Create

Every page here can be read in full without handing over a thing. No account, email address or name is asked for anywhere. Reserving a seat happens elsewhere: you move to GuruWalk, and anything you enter on that platform sits under its own privacy terms rather than ours to describe. This site receives none of it. All that stays behind is the ordinary technical trail any browser leaves when a page loads.

The Ordinary Cookie Record

Loading a page may set a plain cookie recording that the load happened. It holds nothing about you as a person. Nobody is tracked across repeat visits, and no advertising identity is assembled from these pages. Where anonymous view counts exist, they record that a page was opened, never who opened it.

The Short Answer

• Browsing asks for nothing and costs nothing. There is no sign-up step, no form and no checkout anywhere here, because the site itself reserves no walk and sells nothing at all.
• All of these walks are free, pay what you want: a place is booked on GuruWalk, and GuruWalk's own privacy terms govern any details you give when you reserve a spot there.
• Links from this site to the walks are affiliate links. A click never adds cost for the walker, since every tour is free, pay what you want, and it is GuruWalk that pays this site a referral fee when a booking results.
• Nothing on Free Things To Do In Amsterdam requires an account, and every page reads fine with cookies switched off. The footer carries an email address for anything these pages leave open.

Your Choices

The reader holds the controls here. Blocking or wiping cookies in a browser leaves each page working as before, whether someone is reading about the Rijksmuseum Garden in summer or a GuruWalk listing such as FreeDam Tours' Absolutely Amsterdam walk. Reserving a place is a separate matter, because it is never done through this site. Every booking happens on GuruWalk, where the walker owns the account and can delete it at any time.

Questions about privacy, corrections to a page, or general feedback can all go to the email address in the footer. Anything tied to one specific walk should go to the person running it. A question about where a walk starts, which languages it uses, or when it departs belongs with the guide through the walk's own GuruWalk page, whether that walk is Niels' Historical tour, Origins of Amsterdam or any other walk listed here. Those guides operate their own tours independently. This site runs nothing and accepts no bookings of any kind.
