Price Explanation & What’s Included / Not Included

Tripolo aims to make pricing simple and transparent. The price you see in the app reflects the guide’s service fee, which covers their time, expertise, and support throughout your trip. Additional costs vary depending on the activities you choose and are handled separately. 

What the price includes 

The price displayed in Tripolo includes: 

• The guide’s time and service 

• Personalized itinerary planning based on your preferences 

• On-the-ground support during your visit 

• Cultural and language assistance 

• Recommendations for food, activities, and hidden spots 

This fee is charged when you book and is later released to the guide after your service is completed. 

What the price does not include 

The guide’s service fee does not cover any activity-related or travel-related expenses. Examples include: 

• Entrance tickets or admission fees 

• Meals and drinks 

• Public transportation fares (metro, taxi, bus, etc.) 

• Tickets for attractions, shows, museums, tours, or events 

• Activity-specific fees (workshops, classes, equipment rentals, etc.) 

You may consult your guide if you need help understanding how to make reservations for activities. However, it is your responsibility to complete any required reservations, as the guide’s service fee does not include ticket purchases or booking fees. 

These additional costs are paid directly by you at the time they occur. 

Why prices are structured this way 

Tripolo separates the guide’s service fee from other costs to give you: 

• Flexibility to choose or skip activities 

• Control over your budget 

• Transparency in how much you are paying for the guide versus external expenses 

• Freedom to change plans without being locked into a fixed package 

This structure allows for a more personalized and adaptable trip. 

Tipping 

Tipping is optional. If you enjoyed your experience and would like to show appreciation to your guide, you may offer a tip after your trip, but it is not required.
