You will not be disappointed

Was a really fun hunt and love learning more of the history of Bruges. Also loved that while on the hunt you could stop off to have a drink at which ever cute place you found.

This was a really good way to learn more about Brugge that the tours didn’t say & with elderly parents we could take

Great way to see more at your own time.

Thank you so much! 😊 Discovering hidden gems about Bruges that regular tours don't mention, at your own pace with elderly parents — that's exactly the flexibility and depth we want to offer! We hope to welcome you and the family on another adventure in a different city soon! 🗺️

Expensive

I think the price is quite high for walking around with your phone. However, the puzzles were good and also easily solved.

Operator response

Vielen Dank für dein Feedback und dass du dir die Zeit genommen hast, deine Erfahrung zu teilen. Es freut uns sehr, dass dir die Rätsel gefallen haben und gut lösbar waren. Unsere Erlebnisse sind so konzipiert, dass sie mehr als nur ein klassischer Spaziergang sind. Sie kombinieren eine interaktive Spielkomponente, eine sorgfältig geplante Route durch die wichtigsten Sehenswürdigkeiten und versteckten Orte sowie kurze Audioinhalte, die dir die Stadt auf eine flexible und selbstbestimmte Weise näherbringen. Im Gegensatz zu klassischen Führungen kannst du jederzeit starten, pausieren und dein eigenes Tempo wählen, was viele Reisende als großen Mehrwert empfinden. Wir verstehen jedoch, dass die Preiswahrnehmung unterschiedlich sein kann, und dein Feedback hilft uns sehr dabei, das Erlebnis weiter zu verbessern. Vielen Dank nochmals und wir freuen uns, dass dir zumindest die spielerische Seite der Tour gefallen hat.

Educational, may also outside the center.

I had different expectations. You stick around the center too much. Also interesting but you often walk the same part in the center.

Operator response

Bedankt voor uw feedback! 😊 We nemen uw opmerking over de routevariatie serieus — het is waardevolle input om de wandeling gevarieerder te maken en minder heen en weer te gaan door hetzelfde gebied. We werken continu aan het verbeteren van onze routes. We hopen u binnenkort te verwelkomen in een andere stad! 🗺️

Informative puzzle tour of Beautyful Bruges

Great "guided tour" of the beautiful city of Bruges. With interesting information about the city, the buildings, the history and the peculiarities of country and people - baked in puzzles. Nice idea to garnish the tour with hints on delicious stops.

Operator response

Vielen Dank für diese wunderbare Bewertung! 😊 Interessante Informationen zur Stadt, Geschichte und den Besonderheiten von Land und Leuten — in Rätsel verpackt und mit leckeren Zwischenstopps garniert. Perfekt beschrieben! Es freut uns sehr, dass Brügge so begeistert hat. Wir hoffen, Sie bald in einer anderen Stadt begrüßen zu dürfen! 🗺️

Exciting city tour with lots of background information

The scavenger hunt was exciting and led past the most important sights. The times were very good. The children were only able to solve the puzzles partially and with help. Nevertheless, the sightseeing was so much more exciting for the children.

Operator response

Vielen Dank für Ihre tolle Bewertung! 😊 Es freut uns, dass die Schnitzeljagd durch Brügge so spannend war und die Zeitangaben gepasst haben. Dass die Kinder mit etwas Hilfe die Rätsel lösen konnten und die Stadtbesichtigung dadurch viel spannender wurde — genau das wollen wir erreichen! Wir hoffen, Sie und die Familie bald in einer anderen Stadt begrüßen zu dürfen! 🗺️

Surprising discoveries in a familiar city

We thought we already knew Bruges, but this scavenger hunt proved us wrong! It led us through quiet alleys, past historic spots, and revealed quirky facts we hadn’t seen in any guidebook. The mix of puzzles and exploration was really well balanced. We’re already looking forward to trying another World City Trail in our next destination.

Disappointing...

Not as fun as we thought it would/should be. My husband and I did this while visiting Bruges, Belgium. To begin with, we constantly fought with the app while trying to navigate it. The puzzles were all lame...after each one, we were consistently disappointed in how not much thought was put into this. It could be SO much better...don't waste your money.

Operator response

Thank you for your feedback, we truly appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. We are sorry to hear that the experience did not meet your expectations. Our Bruges activity is designed as an interactive exploration game rather than a traditional guided tour, combining light puzzles, short audio stories, and flexible navigation to help you discover the city at your own pace. We understand that puzzle style is subjective and may not suit everyone. That said, many travelers enjoy this format as a more relaxed and playful way to explore Bruges without time pressure or fixed schedules. Regarding the app experience, we have introduced several improvements since your visit, including smoother navigation, clearer progression between stops, and an updated audio guide to enhance the overall experience. Your feedback is very valuable to us, as it helps us continue improving. We hope you still enjoyed discovering the beautiful city of Bruges.

A perfect solo adventure

As a solo traveler, I wanted something engaging but on my own schedule — and this scavenger hunt was ideal. I could take my time at each stop, enjoy the surroundings, and move at my own pace. The app was simple to use, and the clues encouraged me to notice little details I’d normally overlook. A great mix of learning and fun, without needing a group.

Operator response

Thank you so much! 😊 A perfect solo adventure at your own pace, noticing little details you'd normally overlook — that's exactly the experience we want to create! We're so glad Bruges delivered. We hope to join you on your next solo city adventure soon! 🗺️
