What's a story?
After 20 countries, multiple passport renewals and way too much airplane food, we felt like they’ve traveled enough to know what creates the ultimate travel experience. We’ve had enough of tourist traps and mainstream sightseeing spots. We wanted to get more out of our travel – less about the race to check every single must-see site of off the list, more about feeling, experiencing and discovering.
People are unique, every single one different in their own way. So why is it when it comes to travel people tend to follow the exact same route, instead of choosing the route that fits them best?
We created Citykat because we are passionate about good design and travel. So, we came up with an alternative way to explore the world. Of course, actions speak louder than words. This is why we had to ditch the maps and guidebooks and start looking for the secret doors, hidden streets and gardens tucked away.
