The problem
Independent tour guides know their cities best, yet many are excluded from the formal tourism industry. Without digital visibility they depend on word of mouth, and too much tourism revenue leaves before it reaches the communities travellers came to see.
What we are building
With The Locals In is a community-first platform for booking tour guides. Independent guides get digital visibility, more stable income and professional benefits. Travellers get authentic experiences with guides they can trust, walking through communities as one of the locals.
Where it runs
The platform covers Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban and beyond.
Part of a connected stack
With The Locals In sits in the travel pillar with Jibu GPT, which serves the travel agencies and tour operators that package these experiences.
Status
With The Locals In is live at withthelocalsin.com.
