This service was created by Alice, a Brazilian-Portuguese journalist and experienced traveller who, after years of being on the road, concluded that to grasp the genuine spirit of a place you have to come in closer contact with it, from a more familiar perspective. Only by mixing with the locals, one can truly get to know a city’s people, gastronomy, culture and hidden gems.

Alice noticed that with each outing with a different local friend, her experience was even more real and complete. Being able to discover the city as an “adopted local”, rather than a tourist, was definitely a fantastic way to travel! So she decided to extend that possibility to other travellers who share this same feeling.

Realising that this idea was being enthusiastically received, Alice invited some of her friends - who had a similar way of living and outlook on the world - to join the project. The resulting multicultural group could be described as:

fun

 
 

 

Testimonials

“Gracias por hacer de mis vacaciones en Lisboa unas mas intensas, en colores y sabores. As always is a pleasure to be with Alice Wonderland, anywhere.”
Christian Hudtwalcker

“During these days I can say I felt like a local. I had the opportunity to know the highlights of the city at the same time that I have discovered some exclusive and unique places that just Paris citizens know. I did not want to go that deep on history and monuments, but to have a nice general feeling of the city, so renting a local friend was really my best bet! My local friend was easy going, fun and really kind. It was a great pleasure to have him on that afternoon!!”
Roberta Figueredo, Brasil

“London is such a hectic city that I felt I needed some real help to decide what to do on my holidays there. A friend of mine told me about buying the little booklet with selected info on what was happening around the city... Not only I found out that the tips were very good and updated, but I believe my ‘local friend’ has grasped well my style. What else can I say... Well, I feel I optimized my time there! Thanks!”
Ramiro Fuentes, Argentina

“I had an amazing time here in Rio de Janeiro with my local friend! She helped me to select worthwhile tips among all the information I had on my guide books about Rio. Also she took me to many others, which I am sure I will never find by myself!! Hanging out with a local was definitely the best idea!”
Tomas Rosenbaum, Germany
