Explore Sibiu’s medieval center with a flexible app-based puzzle tour covering towers, squares, walls, museums, and the Bridge of Lies.

Solve clues across Cluj-Napoca, from Tailors Bastion to Cetatuia Hill, with this flexible offline treasure hunt for $5.39.
“Leuk om te doen. Startpunt was wat lastig te vinden en bij sommige opdrachten staat het antwoord al op de bijgevoegde foto.”
Cruise from Orșova through the Danube Cauldrons to Decebalus Rock, caves, monasteries, and Iron Gates with an audio guide.
“Das Personal war sehr nett. Aufgrund eines Staus auf dem Weg nach Orsova kam ich zu spät zum gebuchten Slot, durfte dann aber auf das nächste Boot mit aufsteigen. Der Bootführer spielte Infos auf dem Weg zu den Sehenswürdigkeiten auf englisch hintereinander von einem Stick ab. Da der Geräuschpegel auf dem Speedboot sehr hoch war, habe ich kein Wort verstanden. Ich war auch die einzige Ausländerin unter den Rumänen. Hatte den Eindruck von Masse statt Klasse. Aber so ist das manchmal. Für Menschen mit chronischen Rückenleiden eher nicht zu empfehlen. Dann lieber eine Tour auf einem größeren Boot und mehr Zeit einplanen.”
Cruise from Orșova through the Danube Cauldrons to Decebalus Rock, caves, monasteries, and Iron Gates landmarks with an audio guide.
“Everything was great and the team very supportive! Great job, guys!”
Explore Brasov’s grim past on a self-guided ghost quest with puzzles, Klingsor, historic streets, and practical tips for a $6 experience.
“I’d recommend you Uber to the first location or plan on a long initial walk! The experience was a fun way to kill time on our last day in Brasov but we were expecting more time around the city center rather than a 20+ minute walk to the first location! After that the walks were much shorter but we were already a bit burnt out before we began. Otherwise a lot of fun and well done! More of a history walking tour than a game.”
Explore Bucharest’s communist past through a self-guided puzzle quest linking Revolution Square, the Athenaeum, and Parliament.
“A fun way to explore and learn more about Bucharest's recent history. We really enjoyed it! A couple of the clues needed updating which was frustrating as we had to use the "reveal answer" option rather than being able to work it out ourselves.”
Explore Bucharest’s 1989 Revolution with a $7 app guided walking tour, solving puzzles and visiting key sites at your own pace.
“The app wasn’t available which meant we were reliant on the web version which was quite hard to use The initial instructions were hard to follow, and it felt like I needed to do pre reading, I was hoping to learn on tour! However, it was cheap and it got us out and about on the first day”
Pick a castle, a mountain road or a table.
