'The Insider' is the latest instalment of Heineken's Cities of the World campaign, where people around the world are challenged to share the best spots in their city with others globally.
On YouTube, the Insider film features a group of tourists being saved from the banality of touring the city with the average guided group. Instead, the group is taken on a much more interactive and immersive tour of the city, featuring vintage scooter rides, exclusive parties and dance shows.
With help from Heineken, the tourists were able to experience the city as if they were locals who knew all the hotspots to find things to see and activities to do. Since its launch in 2014, Heineken has celebrated 55 of the world's top cities through Cities of the World.
