# What Is Free In Sydney, Exactly > Free Things To Do In Sydney lists what genuinely costs nothing in this harbour city: five pay-what-you-want walking tours booked through GuruWalk and freetour.com, plus museums, parks, coastal paths and public spaces that ask for no ticket. The site sells nothing itself and runs no tours. It earns referral fees when readers reserve or book, at no extra cost to them. Every walk here works on a pay-what-you-want basis. You reserve a place without paying anything up front, join the guide, and at the end hand over whatever the walk felt worth to you. If a particular outing involves an extra cost beyond that tip, the walk's own page says so plainly rather than leaving it to be discovered on arrival. Ratings on this site come from two platforms with two different scales. GuruWalk grades out of 5 and freetour.com grades out of 10, so every figure shown is printed with the scale it belongs to. The five walks are split between the two platforms, and each walk appears once. Much of Sydney is free only under a condition: opening hours, a season, one part of a building. Each condition is written next to the claim itself, and anything that charges is described as paid. ## The Five Free Walking Tours - [Best Free Tours Sydney!
