Choose the route and session
The Athens page lists classic city introductions, neighbourhood themes and evening walks. Individual cards range from shorter viewpoint walks to roughly 2–3-hour introductions. Select the actual guide, date, language, meeting point and walking demands rather than assuming one common route.

No booking charge does not mean no payment
GuruWalk says travellers reserve at no cost and pay the guide at the end what they consider the walk worth. Its Athens guidance gives €15–€50 per participant as a suggested range, not a fixed fare. Plan for this payment model when comparing it with prepaid tours.

Separate the street walk from attraction entry
The Athens page says its free walks cover the streets and slopes around the Acropolis; archaeological-site and Acropolis Museum tickets are purchased separately. Use the web catalogue to reserve a suitable session. Current mobile-app availability on a particular device was not established in this review.
