Now available in 25+ cities with over 8K places. Start exploring where you are
There are hidden stories all around us: in the dinosaur fossils mounted in museums, in the canvas behind your favorite painting, under the grass in the park near your childhood home, within the bronze in the statue you pass on your way to work, and in the architecture of the city you've always wanted to visit.
Amuse helps you uncover and collect these stories — the everyday extraordinary. Think of it as your personal travel companion: but instead of trying to lecture you for an hour, it enriches your daily life with little nuggets of information, even when you're not on vacation.
How it works
Discover the places worth exploring. Find the best spots within walking distance. No research required.
Check in wherever you go. Show up, check in, and it's on your map for good.
Track your journey. Where you've been, what you learned, and everywhere still on your list.
Make any city yours. Watch your city fill in, one place at a time.
More than just a map: • Quick reads — surprising stories in under a minute • Trivia — test what you've learned • Guides — curated routes when you'd rather follow than wander • Events — what happened here, and what's happening now
