Reinventing

city discovery

Meet the team who will awaken your curiosity, help you explore, encourage you to play and will help you to learn more about the city.

Fall in love with any city

see it like you’ve never seen it before

Secret City Trails is reinventing how we explore and enjoy cities. We do so through playful Discovery Walks in 50+ cities in Europe. Why? Because we believe in playfulness for awakening anyone’s curiosity. On our Walks, you serendipitously discover new places, notice little details in your surroundings – and learn about the city. You’ll gain a truly new perspective on city discovery.
“The world is full of magic things, patiently waiting for our senses to grow sharper.”
Irish poet, W.B. Yeats

Chris

Halo to all thrill seekers, my name is Chris and I am your guide through Edinburgh’s obscure streets. I have a Master of Arts and Master of Letters in Scottish History, my enthusiasm and passion for uncovering the secrets of Scottish cities has only increased over the years and I’m ready to share them with you. Dundee and Edinburgh are two of my favourite cities in the world and I want to show you why. I hope you have fun cracking my riddles!

Neil

Hi there fellow adventurer, I’m Neil! I’m a playful London resident with a comprehensive knowledge of its neighbourhoods, cultures and quirks, and an enthusiasm for discovering and sharing the hidden gems beyond the guidebooks! You get to know a city in a completely different light when exploring on foot, and there’s no better way than seeing it through the eyes of a local! I’m so excited to introduce you to the vast urban playground of London, to tell you tales of its colourful history, show you the REAL hotspots, and most of all to put some fun into your visit! My South Bank game, Peckham walk, Surrey Quays route, Rotherhithe Riverside trail and Hampstead experience are ready and waiting for you!

Gertrude

In 2013 I spent two weeks in Barcelona. It was love at first sight and I decided to stay. Since 2014 I work as a guide. Also I organise bike and walking tours through the city. I love to show and experience my visitors the charm of Barcelona. In now live near Barcelona and call the Penedès wine area my home. But I still come to Barcelona every day to share my passion for the city.

Svenja and Pekka

Hi, we are Svenja and Pekka! We love traveling and discovering new places. In the first year of our relationship, we had already visited nine different countries. Traveling got even more fun after we discovered Secret City Trails and we started seeing our own city with different eyes! We hope that you will have a good time in Tampere while playing our game!
