When we look back on our most memorable travel experiences, they're connected by one common thread: the people. Our friends in the countries we've traveled to have given us a profound understanding of their city's spirit and soul. Seeing a city through a local lens makes it so much more than a destination; it becomes a second home. These intimate connections with people and places around the world are what we want to replicate for you with our diverse network of incredible hosts from all ages and backgrounds. Between them, we'll find your perfect match – consider us your friend in the city.

Ce fut une très belle visite et notre guide connaissait très bien sa ville et son histoire. Ce fut très agréable et il s’est très bien adapté à notre volonté de connaître la ville de Bologne. C’est un excellent guide. It was a very nice tour, and our guide knew his city and its history very well. It was very pleasant, and he adapted very well to our desire to know the city of Bologna. This is a great guide.

She was a perfect match for my sons and I. I really appreciate the the match and how engaging she was with my 3 twenty something sons. She also followed up with some great reading recommendations. Thank you for making this a great part of our trip.

City Unscripted asked what I was interested in and my host delivered! I enjoyed my time in the city and learned a lot. My host was well-informed and engaging. I highly recommend this, especially because they really listen to what you are interested in and deliver!

We had a tour with Mirko who showed us how to truly enjoy the best of Bologna history and the food. Would highly recommend booking with him. His deep knowledge of the city and genuine interest in giving us the best possible tour was definitely worth it.

Gabriel let us see a side of Tokyo that we otherwise would not have seen. He led us through Shimokitazawa, where we enjoyed one of the local specialties: Japanese curry. We got to explore small streets and a few stores. This was a great tour, and I’d highly recommend Gabriel.
