We began developing the Lukal app in August 2024 as a group of longtime friends who share a passion for traveling together.
The name "Lukal" is a fusion of "Lukka," one of the historical names of Fethiye—the city where our journey began—and the word "Local."
We've all had those moments of indecision, wondering: Where do the locals go? Which places are truly worth visiting? Wouldn’t it be great if we could just ask someone who really knows?
That’s exactly the need we aimed to bring into the digital world. With Lukal, you can discover the best local spots with recommendations from those who know the area best.
At the heart of Lukal—and undoubtedly its most valuable content creators—are the Localpinners! They are passionate locals who love their hometowns, want to showcase their cities, and help visitors create unforgettable memories.
Becoming a Localpinner requires dedication! Localpinners are carefully selected and can only share a limited number of their favorite places, ensuring every recommendation is truly special. This ensures that every recommendation is high-quality, authentic, and locally driven.
But Lukal is more than just a travel map, it’s a community. Localpinners don’t just share their cities; they also build a strong network and a sense of solidarity with one another.
Lukal isn’t just about discovering new places, it’s about growing together and sharing experiences!
With its Localpinner community, Lukal bridges the gap between small local businesses—the backbone of a city’s economy—and travelers seeking authentic experiences.
By guiding visitors to hidden gems cherished by locals, Lukal helps small businesses gain the recognition they deserve, creating a fairer and more sustainable travel experience for everyone.
Local businesses shape a city’s culture. Lukal allows travelers to explore destinations in a more meaningful way, while Localpinners actively support and uplift their favorite spots. By fostering real connections, Lukal strengthens communities and keeps the spirit of local travel alive.
