Description

Half-timbered houses, flower-lined canals and a town that looks illustrated rather than built — Colmar is almost too pretty to be a game board. Almost. This app-led scavenger hunt takes you through Colmar on foot, using phone-based riddles to guide you from one landmark to the next. No guide, no fixed start time. • Begin among the trees of Place Rapp and its general's statue • Drift through La Petite Venise, Colmar's canal-side postcard • Decode the Place de l'Ancienne Douane and its old customs house Around 2 hours, any group size, available in English, French, and Italian. Alsace's jewel box, unlocked clue by clue.

Disappointing experience

Unfortunately, we have not received the code for the app and have therefore not been able to use the paid tickets.

Great way to see the city

We really enjoyed this tour as it gave us a great opportunity to see the city and find out lots of information about the area . It was great that you could pause and continue at your own pace and convenience

Very caught

Very funny, it makes you live the city differently, you notice things you would never have seen alone and tells curious and interesting anecdotes! Time passes quickly and nicely! I will definitely use it in other cities!

Grazie mille per questo ottimo feedback! Spero di vedervi presto in un'altra città. I migliori saluti dal team di Explorial

application loaded,...

application loaded, payment made, but unable to access the activity link. As a result we could not do anything and we had paid for three people.

application chargée, paiement effectué, mais impossible d'accéder au lien de l'activité. Résultat nous n'avons rien pu faire et nous avions payé pour trois personnes.

COLMAR playing!

We were going for a small WE of 2 days or almost and 1 night in COLMAR. I came across this offer and: magic!: We spent 2 hours visiting COLMAR as we did not the day of our arrival. In addition to the places, we had several nice anecdotes. Frankly, I keep the app for a next visit to a new city! Guides are TOP, but alone or with friends (next time, that's what we'll do!), in a fun way, it's TOP! Long live the concept!

Merci beaucoup pour ce super feedback ! J'espère vous revoir bientôt dans une autre ville. Salutations de toute l'équipe Explorial

What an absolute great find!

Was trying to think of something to do so that we could really appreciate the beautiful city of Colmar and NOT just wander around aimlessly. This app and tour was so interesting and very easy to use. We absolutely loved our time learning about Colmar and would thoroughly recommend this app. We're driving around 11 European countries this month and will now look up this app at any opportunity to discover a new city in a new country.

Super fun way to get to know the city

Treasure hunt is great fun for some older kids. Our children are in category 8-13, you get some more information about the city and Things to do. The children learn to navigate with the map. We found it a fun and educational experience!

Operator response

Hartelijk dank voor uw fantastische recensie! We hopen je snel weer te zien spelen bij Explorial binnenkort in andere steden.

Explorial entertaining and inexpensive Colmat discovered

Installed the app and entered the received code at the displayed starting point. Everything worked intuitively. We are thrilled. So also the younger faction made a city walk of a good 1.5 hours last. Not only that, but also with enthusiasm, as the small points competition also spurs
