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

A random pick out of our local creators

Bernhard

My name is Bernhard and I was born and raised in Salzburg. I have lived also for some years in Italy but my wife brought me back here. It is still one of the most vivible towns in Austria and I think because of it’s variety also one of the best towns to live in. I design trails, am a licensed guide to show you the city, as well as a traveler who loves to explore new things. Play my Secret City Trail to discover hidden gems and beautiful places in Salzburg.

Zanda & Iveta

Sveiki! We are two friends, Zanda and Iveta. Both, avid travellers for years ourselves, and love to share this passion for adventure with fellow travellers. We both are Riga city guides and keep discovering hidden pearls here on a daily basis. So, when you are done with our gamified Riga routes, be sure, we’re working on new ones.

Nicole

I’m Nicole and I’m from Cyprus – as a friend once said, a pinch of sun in cloudy Copenhagen. But don’t listen to that, Copenhagen is always beautiful! I work with sustainability education, I love food and can get easily excited by green solutions. Follow my Secret Trail around Nørrebro – the hippiest and most hipster neighbourhood all at once – which I call home since 2015.
