Made by real local experts

Creators should have some experience in the travel industry and, above all, real knowledge of the city, town or place they want to create a tour for.

Here are some roles our creators often have (none are mandatory):

  • Traditional tour guides
  • Historians
  • Travel and guidebook writers

We love a niche tour!

A city can have a dozen general walking tours. What it rarely has is a tour built around one thing you know better than anyone. That focus is your advantage.

Don't try to cover everything. Pick the thread only you could pull (the theme, the era, the flavour, the obsession) and build the whole walk around it. A traveler searching for exactly that will choose your tour over any general one, and will happily pay more for it.

A few examples to spark ideas

  • Beer and breweries in Munich

    Not a general old-town walk, but a route through the beer halls, hidden taprooms and brewing history that made the city famous.

  • A gastronomic walk through Paris

    Skip the landmarks and follow the food: the bakeries, the covered markets, the patisserie windows, and the stories behind each bite.

  • Street art and hidden courtyards in Lisbon

    The murals, the tucked-away corners and the artists locals know, in a city most people only see from the tram.

Ciceru Verified

The Ciceru Verified badge

Tours crafted to our local-expert standard earn the Ciceru Verified badge, shown on the tour page and next to your name, like a verified check. It tells travelers this was made by someone who truly knows the place, and it lets your tour be priced as premium.

You only need two things to earn it:

  • Your stories

    Write it as if you're guiding in person, sharing the details and anecdotes only a local knows.

  • Your photos

    Add your own on-location photos and video. With your permission, we also use them to promote your tour on social media, so your work reaches more travelers.

    Premium, badge-worthy tours can be priced higher, so your share is calculated on a higher price.
