Talk:Walking tour

Partial merge with Hiking
I think that the section of this article that deals with hiking should be merged with that article (part was copied to there sometime ago), or possibly with Backpacking (wilderness). Any comments, or objections to doing this? Rwood128 (talk) 14:49, 24 July 2014 (UTC)


 * The above can be accomplished by deleting the sections 'The history of walking tours (hiking)', which is already on the Hiking page, and 'Books', along with some re-wording, to indicate that the new focus of the article is just on: "A full, partial-day, or longer tour of a historical, or cultural or artistic site(s)".

Proposed merge with Free Walking Tour
Seems a minor variation on a standard walking tour, the Guardian source describing the "pay what you want" approach as just a "marketing tactic". Article was created by a COI editor using his own Free Walking Tour as an example. The walking tour article is short enough to take another section. McGeddon (talk) 17:52, 6 July 2016 (UTC)


 * In my opinion the articles should exist separately. Meaning of Guardian is only a one meaning. A lot of Free Walking Tour projects will be never commercial. The reason for it is not always the loss of profitability, but often the vision of an Free Walking Tour owner. asgorbunov (talk) 13:12, 8 July 2016 (EST) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 37.16.66.76 (talk)


 * Agreed. This article is a mess and makes a huge fuss over what is only a minor variant on a simple theme. Guffydrawers (talk) 18:50, 6 October 2016 (UTC)
