Startup Name: GuruWalk

Tagline: Fun tours based on tips all over the world

Elevator Pitch: GuruWalk is a growing marketplace for walking tours only based on tips. There is no fixed price and travellers can give what they want at the end of the visit. This concept is very trending in Europe, and it’s now spreading all over the globe.

Thanks to our platform, everyone can become a tour guide for free, and start earning some extra money (average tip is 12 USD/person) while sharing their passion and having fun with travelers. In one year, we already have 500+ tours in 180+ cities and opening new ones every week!

Target Market: Budget travel and local travel

How will you make money? We will monetize the website when we have a bigger community of users. It will be by asking to the guide a small amount of money (1-2 USD) for each booking. Booking will always be free for travellers.

How much capital have you raised? 50-100k
