HOW IT WORKS

Don't worry - it's very simple

1. Tourist sends a Tour request to the Kaktus Guru with a precise Tour duration, date and time

2. Kaktus Guru can either accept it, reject it or propose a different time

3. After the Tour is agreed, Tourist and Guru can chat and set a meeting point

4. When they meet at the meeting point, they both hit the START button in the app and start the Tour

5. The Tour ends either automatically after the agreed Tour time runs up, or the Tourist can end it at any time. In this case, Tourist will only pay for every started hour of the Tour

6. After the Tour ends, Tourist's credit card is automatically charged - no in-person payments

7. Tourist will provide a public review of the Guru so other Tourists can see it too

8. That's it!

Tourists FAQ | Gurus FAQ

BECOME A KAKTUS GURU

We want Gurus to be local residents who know their cities well, are communicative and happy to share their knowledge and experience with others. The idea is to connect Tourists and local people who can show them the city from a unique, authentic perspective - we believe there's more into each city than its main sights

Our goal is to help Tourists find Gurus that have the same interests as they do, so whether you're interested in Arts, History, Sports, Food, Culture or anything else, we want to have you onboard! If you can provide some extra special and unique experience to our Tourists we want to have you onboard twice that much (as far as it's legal and safe)!

 

Just install our app and register as a Kaktus Guru. You can set your own hourly rate or you can provide the Tours for free

See you!
