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

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!

Callum and Philippa

Hi, we’re Callum and Philippa, travel bloggers from Jersey! We love riddles, puns and travelling, when we finished the Munich trail, we knew that St Helier’s history would be the perfect backdrop for a game! We know that the best way to discover a city is to be shown around by a local, let us show you our home with Historic St Helier: Statues, Sailors and Soldiers.

Kate

Hi, I’m Kate, a historian, keen traveller and puzzle enthusiast. I grew up just outside York and returned to the city to do my PhD a few years ago. I now work as a heritage freelancer in Edinburgh. Edinburgh and York are some of the most beautiful and historic cities in the UK and I can’t wait to share them with you. I hope you enjoy exploring York and Edinburgh on my trails.

Julia

Hello there! My name is Julia, born and raised in Madrid. I am a traveller who loves to discover the uncrowded, hidden gems during my trips and I would love to show you those places in my city. Walking narrow streets, tasting the local Madrid, learning about the history and literature through the stories. If you go on my gamified walk ‘Follow in the footsteps of famous writers‘ you will solve riddles that will make you just a little bit native!
