Did Trip Advisor charge us a big amount for a free tour ?? - Very good tour . 21/2 hours well spent . Our guide was knowledgeable and funny These walkative tours are free . Trip Advisor charged us a hefty 22$ per person . A small markup would have been ok and we could have paid the rest to the guide

The tour guide told us we... - The tour guide told us we should not book through aviator but work directly with a local agency since your company gets a % of the ticket price. Guide was good, but I did not appreciate that.

Tour guide was a polish socialist propaganda agent - Dresden is a beautiful city. Unfortunately our tour was led by a guide who felt that several decades of socialist regime were more importance than centuries of previous history. Although very knowledgeable about the history she spent a significant amount of time discussing painting with communist propaganda. I believe she needs to do a tour for those who are specifically interested in several decades of utopia.

Good tour guide, check actual cost of the tour - The guide was knowledgeable and friendly. The tour itself was interesting and informative - actually it’s not a huge distance to walk, as everything is quite close. Stars are deducted from this review, though, as we were informed that the fee paid by us to Viator does not find its way to the tour operator provider - Walkative - (or only a very small amount does) so effectively, we paid twice for the tour, which apparently, can be accessed for free 😑 I’m not sure if this really is the case, but there’s quite a hard sell for tips before the tour stated and at the end. Perhaps having the situation clearly stated, e.g. what percentage commission or booking fee is charged to the operator, would be helpful to the customer.
