Meet our Owner

Meet Emily Tonell, the visionary founder of Riddle Route virtual Tours! Driven by an insatiable curiosity and a deep love for urban exploration, Emily conceived the idea during a solo trip across Europe. Frustrated by the limitations of traditional guidebooks and the fleeting nature of crowded in-person tours, she imagined a way to share the vibrant stories and hidden gems of cities with a wider audience and provide a tour you can navigate at your own pace. Back in her Massachusetts roots, Emily channeled her passion for exploration and storytelling into creating deeply immersive tours that bring the spirit and history of cities to life for everyone.
