Spotted by Locals city guides

Have been a user for years, good to see that the team is still going at it improving the experience!

I found SpottedbyLocals in their early stages several years ago. I met with their founders and became a witness of their expansion and improvements. Wherever I travel, I make sure I download that city if it is available.

I almost stopped visiting places, which are not listed on SpottedbyLocals.

The latest version of the app has great improvements in design and stability. Their content is the king anyways.

On recent trips to Athens, Copenhagen and Krakow I downloaded the city guides. Found some great places through the app quickly. Their network of spotters is really impressive.

Think I already recommended it to about 30 friends when asking on social media where should I go.. says enough.

I use Spotted by Locals app when researching which cities to visit next, and when I'm in the actual city. The offline map is very easy to use and saves me from using data. :)

Love it love it love it! I can never travel without and miss it when I go to cities for which there's no Spotted by Locals. it's easy to find the main sights or famous restaurants and bars, but to really know a city you need to go where locals go. And if you have no local friends how do you do? You download your SbL guide and off you go, to find those rare spots to feel a citizen of that city. What I love as well is that the authors explain you why they love the place, what's special about it, it makes you see the place in a different way. How could we travel without it??

I found this app when planning a trip to Istanbul. Really worth the download cost!

I loved it so much that I downloaded the guide for my own city, discovering lots of cool spots.

I knew some more good spots, so I told Bart and Sanne. They suggested I could become a Spotter. I did a nice Skype "interview" with them and they picked me!

Bart and Sanne are great and met the majority of the spotters in person, as they travel when they have the opportunity, meeting everyone. I met them too!

The Spotter by Locals community is also great, helping each other when traveling. Every year spotters are invited to meet for a weekend, looking forward to go myself!

You won't regret getting the app, if you don't like it, which I doubt, you can always ask for your money back.

Happy Spotting!

If one is interested to see where the locals are hanging out and to check the cities more than tourist books are suggesting - then this is a must have app.
