I believe you are looking for wx.ToolTip. An example:

import wx

class MyFrame(wx.Frame):
  def __init__(self, title, *args, **kwargs):
    super(MyFrame, self).__init__(None, title=title, *args, **kwargs)
    panel  = wx.Panel(self)
    button = wx.Button(panel, label="Button")
    tooltip = wx.ToolTip("Try to click this button")
    button.SetToolTip(tooltip)

class MyApp(wx.App):
  def OnInit(self):
    self.frame = MyFrame("Example")
    self.frame.Show()
    return True

MyApp(False).MainLoop()

wx.ToolTip

There are some methods you can use for controlling the tip.
