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

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.

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!
