Amazing tour. Andrea is the perfect guide - Andrea is the best. The tour was engaging, interesting, and a moot of fun. Andrea showed places off the beaten path and gave many recommendations for places that are authentic and not a total rip off. I highly recommend this tour of you want to see Venice from a different angle.

Highly recommend, a lovely day in Padua - Would highly recommend. It was really well thought out and Padua was stunning. Remember on a hot day to take plenty of water with you! We took a few rest breaks to get out of the sun, which worked well with the app.

Great intro. to city, ok story part. Be sure to go in daytime. - Great time to learn history and visit famous, beautiful, and interesting Padua places! We have been to the city before, but it would be a fantastic introduction to many sights. For us, an older couple, the “story” part was lacking and disjointed. Better to simply uncover clues and enjoy the landmarks. One note: going at night as we did isn’t advisable as we couldn’t read the gravestone (even with flashlights) or see colors on columns as was required by the Quest clues. Thank you Quest!

It’s fun ! - We needed to kill a few hours on a rainy afternoon so I decided to give this a try. We hadn’t been to Padua before so rather than just walk around aimlessly, I figured this activity would provide some structure for us. The app was easy to install and worked very smoothly . . I purchased 2 for our family of 4, and that worked out very well. The riddles in the game were easy but fun, probably better for younger kids. The story which the game centered around was silly and difficult to follow, but that really wasn’t a big deal. I felt we got to see some very key sites in Padua , eg the basilica, the Jewish ghetto. Overall, it worked out exactly as I had hoped and we were all pleased with the experience. I would definitely recommend it.

Traveling through monuments and curiosities of Padua not just for tourists - A beautiful and fun experience to be carried out calmly both alone and with friends. Recommended not only for tourists, but also for residents or students who live there: it is a nice way to delve into the history and learn new curiosities about the splendid Padua. It's just a shame about the background story which could have been concluded with a more exciting and engaging ending.

City walk without information - The walk takes you past beautiful places in the city. Unfortunately, there is no explanation of the sights, but only a fictional story about a chase. The riddles are of varying levels.

Waste of Euros - Wasted $15-20 Euros. I bought this outdoor, virtual or self-guided, game then downloaded Questo App, then created an account only TO BE TOLD I DIDN’T HAVE ENOUGH “gems” to play.

Magic City Fizzles - Very disappointed in this. Two people, three uni degrees and we could not make any sense of the instructions. More thought seemed to have been put into the magical narrative part, rather than info about the points of interest. We found the start point, but the instructions were so unclear, we left the start point and did our own sightseeing with another app. Don’t waste your money!
