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.

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

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.

Paul

Hi Adventurers! My name is Paul and I originally hail from Scotland. I’ve lived in London for 7 years now and I’m always coming across new and exciting things in this glorious city! I design trails as well as escape rooms – so I am a very puzzley person! Play my City trail to discover hidden gems and beautiful secret gardens in the square mile. London – especially the financial district of the City, can be very busy, so unearthing a few calm areas is very exciting!

Elena

Welcome to Athens! I’m Elena, a Greek-American food and travel writer with a passion for exploring destinations and their culinary history. If you’re looking for a new and fun way to explore this great city, play my self-guided Athens famous monuments and secret treasures adventure or the Athens hidden gems and hipster hotspots trail. Your Greek adventure is about to begin!

Miguel

Hello beautiful travellers and locals! I am Miguel, the creator of one of your incredible options for an immersive gamified experience in Faro, the capital of Algarve, in the south of Portugal. I am a biologist and traveller that never goes to a city unless I get the chance to explore its hidden small streets, old buildings and get among its inhabitants and local culture, away from the most touristic routes. Although I am a northerner in this beautiful small country, I am lucky to live and work in the prettiest part of Faro for several years now and I got to know it very well. So, I want to share the best of it with you and hope you can see this town like I do – with passion!
