Questions that come up
Is the food included in the price?
Yes. The price covers every dish at every stop. You pay nothing along the way and you do not need your wallet at the counter.
Do we need to book a time?
No. You buy, you get a link, and you head out whenever you feel like it. There is no fixed hour and no group to join.
Is there an app to download?
No. The tour opens from a link that arrives by SMS and email, and runs in your phone's browser. Nothing to install, nothing to sign up for.
How long does the tour take?
No clock is running. The pace is yours: sit at a stop, or move straight on. Most pairs finish in about two hours.
We started and had to leave halfway. What now?
The tour is saved where you stopped and picks up from there. If too much time has passed and it closed, write to us and we will reopen it.
How long do we have to use it?
Six months from purchase. A MultiPass is valid for nine months.
Is the tour kosher? Vegan? Gluten free?
It varies by tour. Each tour page lists which dietary options it supports, and inside the tour you can filter to see only what fits you.
We do not like sharing a dish. Is there an option?
Yes. Buy a tour for one: there, each person gets their own dish at every stop. The tour for two is the one built around sharing.
On a tour for two, do we have to crowd around one phone?
No. You can open the same link on two phones at once, and you both see the same stop and the same directions.
There are three of us. What do we do?
Either two tours for two, or three tours for one. Mixing the two is not recommended: the stops are not necessarily the same, and you could end up in different places.
Can we buy it as a gift?
Yes. Enter the recipient's details and the link goes to them. With a MultiPass they also pick which market to go to.
We are stuck. Is there someone to ask?
There is a chat with real people, in the language you are reading the tour in. Not a bot returning canned answers.
If something is still open, write to us and we will answer.
