Couldn’t access any areas with Pope in town. You should’ve let us know before we paid for tickets. Found that disingenuous on your behalf. Disappointing
Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry that your visit coincided with temporary restrictions related to the Pope's visit to Barcelona. As this is a self-guided experience, the tour content remains available for 24 hours after activation, allowing participants to continue or revisit the route later if certain areas are temporarily inaccessible. Unfortunately, we do not receive advance information about which public areas or landmarks may be restricted during official visits, so this is not something we can predict or communicate beforehand. We would also note that your review focuses on temporary city access restrictions rather than the trail itself, its content, route, puzzles, or overall experience. We always welcome feedback about the actual game, as it helps future travelers better understand what the experience offers.
We all really enjoyed it - the whole group had a great time. It was fun to compare our results with friends, since the game let us earn points for correct answers. Thanks for the recommendations - we tried out the nightclub later and it was awesome
I really liked it, I recommend it to everyone. Great recommendations, we tried almost all of them! :)
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed the recommendations—hope to see you again soon! :)
It was a really fun activity! There was a lot of information and many places to visit, but we didn’t get tired because we could go at our own pace and take breaks. We will definitely try your recommendations. Thank you for the tour!
Thank you for your great feedback! We're glad you enjoyed the tour and the flexibility to explore at your own pace. Hope you have fun with our recommendations—there’s always more to discover! See you next time!
We tried a self-guided tour for the first time and absolutely loved it! The interactive challenges made exploring the city even more fun, and it was a great way to test how much (or how little!) we knew about the places we visited. And yes – we completed the skull challenge! the skull challenge!
Thank you for your awesome feedback! We're so happy you loved your first self-guided tour experience! The interactive challenges are designed to make exploring even more fun, and it’s great to hear they did just that. And congratulations on completing the skull challenge! 💀 Hope to see you on another adventure soon!
I love traveling solo and avoiding tour groups, so this tour was perfect for me. It included plenty of hidden spots that most tourists miss, along with lots of essential information about the Barri Gotic. I took a longer break and returned to the game later -so the skull part didn’t work out too well for me.
Thank you for your feedback! We're glad to hear that you enjoyed exploring the hidden spots and learning more about the Barri Gòtic at your own pace. The flexibility to take breaks and return later is one of the things we love about this tour, though we understand that some interactive elements, like the skull part, might be trickier when resuming later. We appreciate you giving it a try and hope you had a great experience overall. Safe travels, and we’d love to have you on another adventure in the future!
I’ve been to Barcelona before, but this tour made me see the Gothic quarter in a whole new way. Loved exploring hidden gems and quiet little squares without the usual tourist crowds. It felt like discovering a secret side of the city. Plus, it’s super convenient – no need to download another app, everything works easily through Whatsapp. Totally recommend!

Thank you so much for the recommendations – I found the best tapas bar and rooftop terrace! The tour itself was insightful, full of facts I didn’t know. Now, walking those streets, I feel a completely different connection to Barcelona

A really fun and easy tour! We did it with kids, and everyone enjoyed it. The tasks were interesting and made us pay attention to details. The best part was that we didn’t need to download any extra apps – everything worked on WhatsApp. There were lots of audio guides, pictures, and stories. And the coolest thing - we actually walked the skull shape! Super fun experience!
