Cerca Audio Guides are our modern take on a guide book. Imagine a podcast where each episode delivers insight and stories about somewhere in the world: everything from food to music, history, architecture, sports, fashion and more. Listen passively in the flow of your daily life, while immersing yourself in the sounds and feels of a new and extraordinary place. New episodes will be released all the time, soon there will be a Guide for anywhere you want to go.

The Cerca Concierge is a service that connects you directly with locals on the ground and in the know. People just like the locals who bring the Cerca Audio Guides to life. Get authentic tips and recommendations and ask all your questions. It’s like having a friend anywhere you want to go.

Every Cerca Guide will begin with an episode called “Start Here” - all the basics from how to manage public transportation, to what to do with your kids, how to do see the big sites really well and the etiquette for ordering coffee.

After “Start Here” will come an episode titled “Eat Here”, all about the cuisine and food culture of each place, including recommendations for the best hidden gems from our local experts.

Every Cerca Guide will contain different episodes depending on the place. We’re working on episodes about traveling with your kids, exploring the outdoors, the stories of a city’s most notorious crimes, the history of the architecture, where and why to shop for fashion, the sound of the city’s music, and so much more.
