The Vrijdagmarkt in the Belgian city of Ghent is one of the oldest squares in the city. The square is approximately one hectare
Ghent's town hall is a four-sided complex of buildings, surrounded by the Botermarkt, the Hoogpoort, the Stadhuissteeg and the Poeljemarkt.
Saint Bavo's Cathedral, the oldest parish church in the lively heart of Ghent, is built on the site of a 10th century church and a Romanesque church.
The stone building is named after the builder knight Gheeraert Vilain, nicknamed the Devil. It was sold to the city of Ghent around 1328
The Gravensteen in Ghent is the only remaining medieval castle in Flanders with an almost intact defense system, a special attraction.
The main attraction of Ghent is of course the city center. The medieval city center is located around the Korenmarkt and the river Leie.
Enjoy blissful relaxation on the Gentse Graslei and Korenlei: historic buildings, terraces, the water, the boats, and so much more.
St- Michael's Bridge stands right next to the St. Michael's Church, near Korenmarkt. It is situated on the River Leie, looking towards the city centre.
The Belfry of Ghent is a 95-meter high tower in the center of the city of Ghent. The tower is the middle tower of the famous Ghent tower row. A must see
This church, which has existed since the 11th century, was the church of the wealthy merchants and of the guilds of Ghent
Since the 10th-11th century, this square has been the place where the grain that entered Ghent via the Leie or Scheldt was traded
The patershol is an old neighborhood in the historic center of the city. There are numerous cafes and restaurants in the narrow medieval streets.
The Ghent Museum of Fine Arts is one of the oldest museums in Belgium. The collection consists of paintings, sculptures, drawings, etchings and tapestries.
This winding alley between the Hoogpoort and the Donkerstraat is also called the graffiti street because of its appearance.

It’s a good way to explore parts of Ghent. A little boring at times. Also, little obscure. I must admit at one point we decided not to complete the course because we wanted to do other things and find that interesting.
Bedankt voor je feedback! 😊 Fijn om te horen dat de trail jullie langs verschillende delen van Gent heeft geleid en heeft geholpen om de stad te verkennen. We waarderen het ook dat je eerlijk aangeeft dat sommige onderdelen voor jullie wat minder boeiend aanvoelden. Iedereen beleeft een stad en een trail op zijn eigen manier, en we begrijpen dat er soms andere interessante activiteiten lonken tijdens een bezoek aan zo'n prachtige stad. Bedankt voor het delen van jullie ervaring; dit helpt ons om onze trails verder te verbeteren. We hopen dat jullie ondanks alles een fijne tijd hebben gehad in Gent en mooie herinneringen hebben meegenomen! 🎉
The City Trial was a lot of fun. We walked from place to place on not busy roads and passed places we didn't know yet. Highly recommended!
Bedankt voor je leuke review! 😊 Wat fijn om te horen dat jullie de City Trial zo leuk vonden en op een rustige manier nieuwe plekken hebben ontdekt. Precies zoals we het graag zien! Dankjewel voor de aanrader en hopelijk tot ziens bij een volgende trail 🎉
We made a nice search in Ghent and came to a few places where we had not been yet. The facts we got were interesting. It was fun and worth repeating, possibly with a few grandchildren.
Wat leuk om te horen dat jullie zo’n fijne zoektocht hebben gehad in Gent! 😊 Mooi dat jullie zelfs als (deels) bekende bezoekers nog nieuwe plekjes hebben ontdekt en de weetjes interessant vonden. Dat maakt het extra bijzonder! En wat een gezellig idee om het een volgende keer met de kleinkinderen te doen dat maakt het plezier alleen maar groter. We hopen jullie snel weer te mogen verwelkomen! ✨
We did the city trail with four adults in Ghent. A perfect way to get to know the city better! You will learn more about Ghent in a fun way.
Bedankt voor jullie review! 🌟 Fijn dat jullie met de citytrail Gent op een leuke manier hebben ontdekt en meer over de stad hebben geleerd. 🗺️✨
There was no coherence between the questions and information about the location. The wrong login was sent, and no one could be reached via chat/mail. Very unclear instructions to start, and some questions/answers were no longer correct/current. The website for the guide was quite user unfriendly. Overall really bad price/quality ratio unfortunately...
Nice trip to visit the city. Many undiscovered places seen.Qula is really worth it. Note, the game witty iron beads.
Bedankt voor je enthousiaste review! 🙌 Fijn om te horen dat jullie zoveel leuke plekjes hebben ontdekt en dat het spel de moeite waard was. Hopelijk tot een volgende keer!
What a fun way to stroll around the city. You will pass most of the highlights. The questions are funny and usually answerable. Beautiful city.
Wat fijn om te horen dat jullie zo genoten hebben van het struinen door de stad! 😄 Leuk dat de vragen grappig en goed te doen waren. Bedankt voor jullie mooie review! 💛
My work discount travel program mess up the dates on my stay and was only concern was not refunding my money the good staff at Embassy Suites in Brunswick GA took good care of my family I had to pay again but they match the rate I had and was able to have a good 4th with family I came to visit and the Suite was great.
It was super fun and interesting. Nice experience. We will definitely do that again in another city. Definitely recommended for a bachelor party.
Wat leuk om te horen! Super dat jullie zo genoten hebben. En wat een topidee om dit te doen voor een vrijgezellenfeest – we hopen jullie snel terug te zien in een andere stad! 🎉🎈
Seeing all the positive feedback, we chose this track game to celebrate our dad’s birthday as a family. Unfortunately, our experience was very disappointing. We had opted for the French version, but the translation was catastrophic: the sentences were often incomprehensible, making the puzzles very difficult to follow. We quickly lost track of the game. In addition, one of the questions referred to an element of the set that no longer exists, making the answer untraceable. This gives the impression that the course is not maintained or updated regularly. We are very frustrated that we have paid 31 euros for an activity that seemed botched and unfinished. It’s a shame, because the concept is interesting and the city of Ghent lends itself well. Updating content and quality translation would be essential to provide a better experience.
