I had purchased 2 tickets for a self guided tour in Aachen. I never received an email with a booking code. Therefore never was able to take the tour. Waste of $30. Maybe I can receive a refund. Moekevake@aol.com

It was really quite easy and interesting. Only one sight was far from the route and ran along a busy road. That was a shame because otherwise everything was in the center.

The scavenger hunt through Aachen was really fun for us even as Aacheners and we actually learned a lot about our city. A nice and fun way to get to know a city. Gladly again:-)

Great to get an idea of the city in an entertaining manner. Do it at your own pace and time: we did one part in the morning and continued late afternoon. I liked to get a good combination of historical facts and numbers, as well as fun facts.
Thank you so much for your fantastic review! We hope to see you playing Explorial again soon in other cities. 😊
Fun way to explore Aachen - especially during the off season when other guides / guided tours are less available. Lots of fun, and you love at your own pace.
Thank you so much for your fantastic review! We hope to see you playing Explorial again soon in other cities.
Super fun interactive walking tour through the city with about 10 questions from various buildings about the history and culture. Really worthwhile to learn more about the city in a playful way
Hartelijk dank voor uw fantastische recensie! We hopen je snel weer te zien spelen bij Explorial binnenkort in andere steden.
A city worthwhile visiting. Easy to get around and if you wish to avoid looking for a parking place down town, make use of the various Park & Ride options. Bus services are frequent and free with your parking card. Do visit the city hall and the cathedral with its remarkable stain-glass windows.
Thank you for your review and we hope to see you in other cities very soon. Have a lovely week!
Very nice little simple activity to get to know the city. It takes 1.5-2 hours and you learn a bit of history and facts about Aachen. I can only recommend it!
Thank you so much for such a fantastic review! We hope to see you playing Explorial again soon!
