A closer connection.
Architecture, photography and neighbourhood life offer different starting points. Share the places that interest you, and whether you would like a walk, transport between areas or a mix of both.

A starting idea for your visit.
Your questions, before the day.
Can I choose a particular guide?
Share your preferences in your brief. The guide’s identity, language, availability and any request for a specific person must be confirmed before booking.
Which guiding languages are available?
The language selector records your preference. It is not a guarantee of a guide speaking that language; the match must be confirmed for your city and date.
Are tickets, transport and meals included?
The city ideas are starting points. Guide fees, admission, transport, meals, meeting places and cancellation terms are itemised in a confirmed proposal.
Does preparing a brief book my guide?
No. Your brief is saved on this device for you to download and share. It does not send a request, reserve a guide or take payment.
