Beautiful fountain. The doll fountain is located in the middle of the historic part of Aachen near the Dom.
The Elisenbrunnen are the symbol of the spa and bathing city of Aachen. Here, hot springs in the middle of the city center emerge at the earth's surface. Not only Charlemagne, but also the ancient Romans already appreciated these sources.

The questions make you pay more attention to details. Unfortunately, the route is not intuitive and the signal is not always consistent. Overall, it is a lovely experience.
Vielen Dank für das Feedback! Schön zu hören, dass es insgesamt eine schöne Erfahrung war. 😊 Und tatsächlich: Es ist natürlich auch ein bisschen eine Schnitzeljagd, daher gehört das Suchen nach der richtigen Route manchmal einfach dazu.
Good idea. The tasks could be trickier. Too short in the end, but all in all fine. We can recommend it w
Vielen Dank für Ihr Feedback! 🌟 Es freut uns, dass Ihnen die Idee gefallen hat. Wir nehmen Ihre Hinweise zu den Aufgaben und dem Ende der Tour ernst und arbeiten daran, das Erlebnis weiter zu verbessern. Schön, dass Sie die Tour weiterempfehlen! 🗺️✨
The tasks were trickier than I initially imagined. Although we were moving around our hometown, there was a certain challenge in finding everything. We've also learned new things. The mysterious point was just very difficult to find. GPS wasn't really helpful here. In addition, the target was covered for construction work. Fortunately, I knew the answer that way. There is still a little room for improvement in the management of the individual sections. Or a guided tour makes sense, otherwise a few kilometers must be covered in total. The end came abruptly and without any real purpose. That was a shame. An action or something funny at the end would have been nice.
Vielen Dank für Ihr ausführliches Feedback! Es freut uns, dass Sie trotz der Herausforderung neue Dinge entdecken konnten. Wir arbeiten kontinuierlich an einer verbesserten Routenführung und einem spannenderen Abschluss. Danke für die Hinweise wir nehmen sie gerne mit in unsere Weiterentwicklung. Wir hoffen, Sie bald wieder zu begrüßen! ✨
Fun treasure hunt. Even if you already know Aachen worth it. Also enough time to sit on terrace or eat something. In short, an educational experience in the cathedral city.
Bedankt voor je leuke review! 😊 Super dat de speurtocht in Aken ook voor jullie als kenners nog verrassend was. Graag tot een volgende city adventure! 🗺️✨
The activity gave us such a unique experience of Aachen that we would have otherwise never gotten! It was extremely fun, flexible and we would definitely do it again in different cities!
Thank you so much for your lovely feedback! We're thrilled to hear you had such a unique and fun experience in Aachen. We’d love to welcome you again in another city soon!
For the second time this year a city explored through this beautiful possibility. Super fun and informative and you get to places you don't normally go. Plus point is that it does not drive up and you can also enjoy the Things to do in between. And yet there is a little competition urge in it which makes it doubly fun. Next weekend we will explore Bruges so on to the next city
Bedankt voor de review jan. Fijn dat je een super leuke tijd hebt gehad en dat je hebt kunnen genieten van de bezienswaardigheden.
First time a treasure hunt in a foreign city. And yes this was immediately clear. This is also how you get to know a city more beautiful and fun. What a great afternoon it was. Compliments for the app. Clearly and it works great. On to the next one. I can recommend this to everyone
Bedankt voor de review Jan. Wat geweldig dat je een leuke middag hebt kunnen krijgen door deze speurtocht en dat je de stad op zo een manier mooier en leuker hebt leren kennen.
They were assignments and questions for different ages. Everything was correct and worked. Everyone enjoyed it very much.
Wat een leuke stad he Aken!
Nice walk. Well laid out and enough information and explanation. With the tour you have a goal for a nice walk in a nice city
Dank je voor de leuke review!
Great way to discover Aachen. You'll take Qula to places you'd never go yourself. The trip does not take too long and not too short, just right. Definitely worth it.
Wat leuk om te horen, zeker voor onze mensen die deze speurtocht door Aken hebben gemaakt. Hartelijk dank!
