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

Jill

Hello there! My name is Jill and I love living in Brussels! I am originally from Flanders but I feel like a ‘Brusseleir’ after more than a decade in the capital of Europe. Check out my first game in the neighbourhood of Sainte-Catherine.

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.

Mirco

“Ciao, sono Mirco!” Son of Sicilian parents, I was born and raised in northern Italy, not far from Milan. At the age of 24 I moved to Sicily, more specifically to Catania, with the aim of traveling throughout Sicily and making informative videos on its lesser-known places. Today I am a Tour Guide and Hiking Guide. Also I am committed to offering visitors alternative routes, far from mass tourism. My Secret City Trail through Catania also gets you on an alternative itinerary through the city!

Frans

Hoi, I am Frans. I was born and raised in a small village close to Amsterdam. I studies physics in Amsterdam and ended up in Maastricht working for a medical device company. Around 2000 I decided to change my careerd and started an event agency TreaT, catering for business events in Maastricht. In 2013 I created CityGoose citygames in the Netherlands; self-guided city discovery games with a physical game. In 2022 we acquired Secret City Trails, which is like the next logical step to expand my discovery ambitions. I love board games, puzzles and good food and hope you enjoy the different discovery walks I made.
