It is a great way to learn about the city in a short period of time. Beware that you must have cellular data available to use. We were able to review the app while in our hotel and use minimal data while waking, but we missed out on the gps/geocaching portion of the experience because of unreliable data speeds.
Thank you so much Gale! 😊 We're glad it was a fun and efficient way to learn about Thessaloniki! Great practical tip about cellular data for other travelers — we always recommend a reliable connection for the full GPS experience. We're sorry the data speeds affected part of it, but we love that you found a smart workaround! We hope to welcome you on another adventure in a different city soon! 🗺️
There was no shuttle to the starting point, and no one seemed to know where the Arch was. We eventually found it on the other side of a very confusing congested city, but no kiosk was there. Probably should have done a curated tour instead.
Thank you for your feedback and we're sorry for the confusion in Thessaloniki. We'd like to clarify that our activity is entirely self-guided through the World City Trail app — there is no shuttle, kiosk or staff meeting point. Everything you need is in the app itself. We're sorry this wasn't sufficiently clear before your visit and we'll work on making this more prominent in our description. We are available 24/7 at worldcitytrail.com/chat and would have helped you get started immediately. We hope to give you another chance! 🗺️
Well done. The spots and the accompanying texts/explanations in the city were great. Sometimes there were a few typos. A reading/audio function would be desirable. The puzzles themselves are usually formulated without a specific question and the result often has little thematic connection to the city or region. But for the price, it's a recommendation.
