“Not a free tour”
Here you have to talk about a guided walk without any information but with stops in shops and sales campaigns... and finally a binding minimum amount has been set for the tip. So it doesn't have much to do with a free walking tour anymore... unfortunately not recommended.

“Not very informative ”
The guide looked quite tired, my friend and I were the only people at the tour and he didn't seem to care too much. We were looking for a more historical focus but it was more cultural. We were taken to a few shops as well.
