Privacy Policy

Free Things To Do In Porto is a directory, and directories hold very little by design. Its pages present 17 English-language free walks in Porto, every one of them run by an independent local guide on GuruWalk, and no booking, payment or message travels through this site at any point. Because each reservation is completed on GuruWalk's own page for the chosen walk, personal details never need to reach this site in the first place. The guide operating the walk, whether Revolutours, Take or PortoWalkers, holds the reservation, and anything a walker shares stays with that platform. This page sets out the small remainder a visit can leave behind and where your details actually end up once you move on to a walk's page.

What Happens When You Open A Page

Browsing here demands nothing from you. There is no signup, no contact form and nowhere to enter a name or email. Booking works differently: a place on any walk, from the Ribeira walks to the Old Town Highlights pages, is reserved on GuruWalk, and anything you submit there is covered by GuruWalk's privacy terms rather than anything on this site. None of it comes back here. What is left is the routine technical footprint every browser leaves when any page loads.

Cookies And Your Visit

Loading a page may set a standard cookie recording nothing more than the visit itself. It carries no details about you as a person. No profile is assembled here, and no advertiser trails you between pages. Anonymous counts, where they exist, record that a page was opened, not who opened it.

The Basics

• Nothing sold, nothing signed. No account, form or login is requested on any page, so reading these pages stays anonymous throughout.
• Every walk is free, pay what you want. Reservations happen on GuruWalk, and the privacy policy of that platform applies to everything you enter there. Each of the 17 English-language walks has its own GuruWalk page.
• Affiliate links appear next to some walks. Following one costs a reader nothing, since every walk is pay what you want with no fixed amount, and any referral fee comes from GuruWalk, never from the traveller.
• Any browser lets you block or delete cookies, and every page here stays fully readable without them. For anything a privacy page cannot settle, the footer lists an email address.

Your Choices

Personal information stays under the reader's control at every step. Blocking cookies, or clearing them afterwards, leaves access unchanged: the Old Town Highlights pages, the Ribeira And Gaia walk descriptions and everything else remain open to read. Reserving a seat is a separate matter that happens away from this site. Walkers reserve on GuruWalk, and an account created there belongs to the walker alone, to adjust or close whenever they choose. Nothing about that account is visible to this directory.

Spotted something to correct, or unsure how a detail of yours is handled? The footer carries an email address for both. Questions tied to a particular walk go to the guide who runs it, whether the doubt is the meeting point at Largo Amor de Perdição, the languages a guide offers or the duration of a walk. Answers come through GuruWalk's page for that walk. Each walk is operated personally by its guide; this site runs none of them and keeps no bookings.
