The best private, customized tours & experiences with locals

We tailor all our travel experiences to your interests. On our custom tours with friendly local guides in major cities across the world, you’ll discover the soul of a city with someone who can show you its attractions beyond the famous landmarks. A balance between highlights and hidden gems, our customized tours seek out a city’s authenticity and celebrate the local way of living. You’ll see the iconic sights – but you’ll also uncover the secret spots loved by locals: the unassuming restaurants that serve the best traditional cuisine, the cool, charismatic neighborhoods, and the hidden viewpoints that show the city from a different perspective.

See the city beyond your guidebook

Perplexing maps, tangled public transport, and chalkboard menus scrawled in an unfamiliar language can’t hold you back when you have a local guide leading the way. On our custom tours, your local insider plays the role of GPS, guidebook, and Google Translate, so you’ll be able to experience any- and everything the city has to offer. From secret plazas in Italy to underground eateries in Japan, the sides of a city usually reserved for its residents open themselves up to you. Our custom tours allow a foreign city to become more than just another travel destination – it becomes a second home.

Travel tailored to you

We know that every traveler’s idea of the perfect trip is different. That’s why we take everything into account to plan your tour and give you plenty of unique experiences to choose from. Whether you have a full day, half a day, or just three hours, our custom tours squeeze in as many of the city’s attractions as possible. From must-see tours exploring iconic landmarks to food tours uncovering a city’s finest traditional cuisine (and experiences that veer starkly off the tourist trail), you’ll find the custom tours that pique your interest and satisfy your curiosity.

Like-minded locals leading the way

We don’t just tailor our custom tours to suit your interests; we pair you with a local guide who thinks like you. Our local insiders come from all ages, backgrounds, and perspectives. They’re journalists, artists, comedians, teachers, and company execs. Some of them are food-lovers with a finger on the pulse of their city’s restaurant scene; others are history buffs who can share fascinating stories of their city’s past. One thing all our hosts have in common is that they love their homes and are passionate about sharing its secrets and attractions with travelers like you.

Ryuki was great! In 5 hours we saw so much and he was able to customize the tour based off of what we wanted to see/avoid. I couldn’t recommend him enough!

Ninelth gave us a wonderful tour of Diego’s and Frida’s house /studio, The historical spate of Mexico City and also we had a chance to visit the San Angel neighborhood where we got to buy beautiful drawing. Our guide was very knowledgeable and gave us a wonderful and informative historical background of the places we visited. We highly recommend this tour!
