The story behind StoryHunt

"I founded StoryHunt because I believe that the best way to learn about a place is through the stories that hide around us.

With StoryHunt my mission is to find those stories and make them available in a way that's both fun and easy."

- Mathias Mølgaard, Founder

Explore the world on your own terms

My name is Mathias and I'm the CEO and founder of StoryHunt. On this page, I want to share the story behind our company.

I founded StoryHunt in 2018 while studying at the IT University of Copenhagen. I've always loved to travel and learn about the unique stories that hide all around us. However, going on a traditional guided tour wasn't my thing. Instead, I wanted to explore the city on my own terms and take breaks and detours along the way.

Therefore I decided to create a product that I wanted to use myself. A product that would peel the layers off my surroundings and expose the hidden stories. Today StoryHunt is available in many destinations across the world.

Engage in history

History is all around us but it's often difficult to see. With StoryHunt we want to make the history available and engaging 🤯

Our aim is to convey history in a way where it's not about remembering names, dates or facts. We want the stories to be about people and relate to things you can see.

Who are our ancestors? What were their dreams and desires? Why did they build the world like they did? These are the questions we want to answer with StoryHunt.

A community of storytellers

We know that we can't tell all the stories on our own. That's why we decided to build the technology to allow everyone to do so.

We partner with destinations, local tour guides, tour operators and attractions to deliver stories that will move people. 

Do you have a story to tell? Then we would love to hear from you ❤️
