A “Local Secret” is a place with its own identity, authentic and genuine, appreciated by the local people and reflecting the essence of the destination to which it belongs.

A Local Secret is a place, experience or corner that reflects the authentic essence of a destination, and that is known and valued mainly by the local people. It does not usually appear on traditional tourist routes, but it has a special value due to its history, character, quality or connection with the local culture.

It could be:

• A small family restaurant where they cook like in the old days.
• A hidden viewpoint with unique views.
• A craft workshop where a tradition is preserved.
• A neighborhood market with real flavors.
• Or even a custom, a street or a festival that represents the soul of the place.

A Local Secret is not just what's off the tourist radar: it's what makes a destination unique, what locals proudly recommend, what holds a place's true identity.

We created Local Secrets to reshape tourism by focusing on high-quality, locally-driven experiences that celebrate authenticity and excellence. Our mission is to offer an inspiring alternative to mass tourism by highlighting the true character of each destination and honoring the value of the local and the genuine.
