Hi, I’m Karen

Montpellier

I love Montpellier for its vibrant arts scene, charming streets of the historical city center, and the botanical garden where nature and culture meet. Cafés and terraces are my favorite spots to soak up the energy of locals and enjoy the city’s lively public spaces. I enjoy attending live performances and exhibitions, wandering through the botanical garden, and discovering new culinary experiences. I know neighborhoods like the historical center, Arceaux, Figuerolles, and Gares really well and I love sharing Montpellier’s art, live performance and food scenes with visitors, helping them experience the city’s creativity, energy and local charm.

I love Montpellier for its perfect mix of small-city charm, nearby nature, and easy access to the beach. The best way to enjoy it is on foot, wandering its streets and soaking in the local vibe. I spend my days exploring the city, relaxing in coffee shops, and meeting new people - there’s always a story to discover! I know Downtown, Cévennes, Croix d’Argent, Près-d’Arène, and Port Marianne like the back of my hand. Whether it’s city tours, day trips, museums, or finding the best restaurants and bars, I’m excited to share Montpellier’s hidden gems and favorite spots with you.

Hi, I’m Tat

Montpellier

I’m drawn to the underground scene, where music, art, and people from all cultures come together to celebrate freedom and creativity. Whether I’m raving in hidden clubs, sipping wine at the best tasting spots (I worked in wine tourism, so I know the good ones!), or wandering through countryside villages, I’m always discovering new sides of this vibrant city. From the beaches and gourmand gems to the boutiques of Beaux-Arts, Saint Roch, and Port Marianne, I’ll show you the Montpellier I know best - authentic, colorful, and unforgettable. I also love connecting people, so don’t be surprised if you leave with new local friends too.

Hi, I’m Leonor

Montpellier's mix of history, culture, and its surrounding nature make it a truly inspiring place to live and explore. You’ll often find me strolling through the city center, admiring the beauty of its churches or writing in an outdoor café. I always find something new in familiar streets. I know really well neighborhoods like l’Écusson, Beaux-Arts, and Aiguelongue, and I enjoy sharing both their charm and hidden gems. With a passion for art, history, architecture and food, I can guide you through Montpellier’s rich culinary scene while also uncovering the fascinating stories behind its buildings. I’d love to show you the city in a way that feels personal, welcoming, and full of discoveries especially tailored for you

Hi, I’m Mateo

Montpellier

For me, Montpellier is a place where past and present flow together effortlessly; I often grab a book and spend hours in its plazas, parks, or sunny terraces, just soaking it all in. I know neighborhoods like L'Écusson, St. Roch, Antigone, Beaux Arts, and more inside out, and I enjoy sharing both their stories and hidden gems. Whether it’s exploring history, diving into the city’s lively music and festival scene, discovering unique art galleries, or tasting your way through its best food spots, I’ll make sure your time here feels like experiencing Montpellier through the eyes of a friend.

Hi, I’m Marine

Montpellier

I adore sitting in hidden squares with a coffee, soaking up the atmosphere or wandering through the narrow streets of the historic center, always stumbling upon a new café or quirky little shop. When I need some calm, you’ll find me by the Lez or at Parc Montcalm, enjoying a slower pace. I know neighborhoods like Antigone, Port Marianne, and Boutonnet really well, and I’m especially passionate about helping newcomers – from navigating student life and sorting out admin to finding the best local eats or figuring out public transport. With me, you’ll discover Montpellier in a way that’s practical, fun, and full of personality.

FAQs

Your questions, answered

Is this a traditional tour or something different?

This isn’t a traditional tour with a fixed script. It’s a fully personalized day shaped around your interests, whether it’s culture, history, neighborhoods, or hidden local spots. Your host is a knowledgeable local, more like a friend showing you their city. It’s flexible, one-on-one, and tailored entirely to you.

What if I don’t know what I want to explore?

That’s completely fine! Select an experience theme or a flexible discovery experience, and after booking, answer a few questions so your host can design the perfect experience for you.

What makes City Unscripted different?

We don’t do generic tours. Every experience is crafted around you, ensuring a unique, personal, and authentic way to explore the city. You won’t just see the sights—you’ll connect with the people and stories that bring the city to life.

Can I adjust the plan on the day?

Absolutely. Your host can adjust the itinerary on the day based on your pace, energy, or any new ideas you have. It’s a flexible experience from start to finish.

Will we enter attractions, or just explore from the outside?

That’s up to you! Some experiences include visits inside attractions, while others focus on the city's culture and atmosphere, which can be hard to truly experience without someone who knows the city inside out.

Can we explore outside the main city?

Yes! If you’re interested in day trips or exploring beyond the city, let us know in the post-booking questionnaire, and your host will design an itinerary that takes you to incredible places off the usual tourist path.

How does personalization work?

After booking, you’ll receive a short questionnaire where you can share your interests, travel style, and any must-see spots. Based on that, we’ll match you with a local host who’ll reach out to plan your personalized itinerary.

Can my host meet me at my accommodation?

Hotel meet-ups are available upon request in central areas. If you're staying outside the city, your host will recommend the best meeting spot and guide you with directions.
