Don’t waste your money

A complete waste of money! Thought it would be a good way to see the main sights of Annecy but was so complicated with no clear instructions it took an hour to get the info on one site so we gave up. Annecy is very busy so difficult to follow the route - and beware pickpockets if you’re distracted trying to work the App - husband’s wallet stolen from a zipped bag!

Operator response

Thank you for your feedback and we're genuinely sorry to hear about your husband's wallet — that's a horrible thing to happen on any trip and we hope it didn't spoil the rest of your time in Annecy. We're also sorry the instructions weren't clear enough to get you started smoothly. We're available 24/7 at worldcitytrail.com/chat and could have helped within seconds. Please reach out with your booking number and we'll find a fair solution for you.

This was so fun! The challenges were a bit tricky (some warm up challenges might get us in the mode better). We loved learning about Annecy and it's lore while solving challenges. A fun way to learn!

Great walk with teenagers

An incredible experience that helped me get to know the sights of the city with my teenage children who are usually not very excited about walking around the city. They got so excited that they already want to do it again in the nearby cities.

Operator response

Muito obrigado pela sua avaliação! 😊 Isso nos deixou muito felizes — conseguir que adolescentes fiquem animados para explorar uma cidade é exatamente o que queremos! Que ótimo que já querem repetir nas próximas cidades — com 167 destinos disponíveis, a próxima aventura está à espera! 🗺️

Good fun

Generally it was good fun and absorbing but navigating the app and using the maps to go from one location to another was confusing at first. A decent mobile signal was essential to as occasionally we were stuck until the signal came back.

Not for December

Good fun but not for December. The Christmas Market meant lots of the attractions were difficult to get to or unaccessible. Also some of the map names were different to how it was listed on the game

Great way to explore and learn at the same time!

Great way to explore Annecy, France. Discovered areas that we would not have seen otherwise. Fun and educational. My wife and I both enjoyed it as a first experience and would do it again at a future destination!
