About us
LightUp Tours is a platform for creative guides. Here you’ll find in-person tours with local guides and audio guides to explore the city on your own, and above all interesting places, for travellers and for locals too.
Why LightUp exists
We wanted a marketplace for tour guides and audio tours, whether independent guides or small agencies, where each one has their own voice and works their own way.
How it works →Behind LightUp
We are a team of creative people who have lived in Australia, Germany and Colombia, and in every city the same thing happened: the most interesting things weren’t in the travel books, but in little-known places and in local people who knew how to tell their story. LightUp was created to show those places and those people.
That’s why we want to give guides a space of their own, where their personality comes through. For us, a good tour depends on who tells it.
