A great way to find out about Annecy & some fab history to go with the clues, great fun
Thank you so much! 😊 Fab history paired with the clues and great fun along the way — that's exactly the experience we want to create in Annecy! We hope to welcome you on another adventure in a different city soon! 🗺️
Has no added value. If you select the sights yourself in Google Maps and plot a route for yourself, you get the same result. The puzzles are childish and the app is user-unfriendly. And the route is displayed via Google Maps anyway. So it's useless.
Thank you for your feedback and we're sorry the experience in Annecy didn't feel worthwhile. We take your points seriously. What we aim to add beyond a self-made route is the curated stories and history at each stop, the puzzles, and the flexibility to pause and resume — but clearly we didn't deliver that value for you here, and we're sorry. We're continuously working on the puzzles and app usability. We hope to have another chance to show you a better experience. 🗺️
A complete waste of money! Thought it would be a good way to see the main sights of Annecy but was so complicated with no clear instructions it took an hour to get the info on one site so we gave up. Annecy is very busy so difficult to follow the route - and beware pickpockets if you’re distracted trying to work the App - husband’s wallet stolen from a zipped bag!
Thank you for your feedback and we're genuinely sorry to hear about your husband's wallet — that's a horrible thing to happen on any trip and we hope it didn't spoil the rest of your time in Annecy. We're also sorry the instructions weren't clear enough to get you started smoothly. We're available 24/7 at worldcitytrail.com/chat and could have helped within seconds. Please reach out with your booking number and we'll find a fair solution for you.
This was so fun! The challenges were a bit tricky (some warm up challenges might get us in the mode better). We loved learning about Annecy and it's lore while solving challenges. A fun way to learn!
Thank you so much Amber! 😊 We're thrilled you had so much fun discovering Annecy's history and lore while solving challenges! Great suggestion about warm up challenges — we'll pass that to our content team. We hope to welcome you on another adventure in a different city soon! 🗺️
Really good as it is really fun and really interesting and really interactive and taught me really knowledgable information
Thank you so much! 😊 Fun, interesting, interactive and educational — that's everything we want to offer in one experience! We're so glad Annecy delivered on all fronts. We hope to welcome you on another adventure in a different city soon! 🗺️
An incredible experience that helped me get to know the sights of the city with my teenage children who are usually not very excited about walking around the city. They got so excited that they already want to do it again in the nearby cities.
Muito obrigado pela sua avaliação! 😊 Isso nos deixou muito felizes — conseguir que adolescentes fiquem animados para explorar uma cidade é exatamente o que queremos! Que ótimo que já querem repetir nas próximas cidades — com 167 destinos disponíveis, a próxima aventura está à espera! 🗺️
Great course but not always easy to understand what needs to be done.s
Merci beaucoup pour votre retour! 😊 Nous sommes ravis que le parcours à Annecy vous ait plu! Nous prenons note de votre commentaire sur la clarté des instructions — nous travaillons continuellement à les améliorer. N'hésitez pas à contacter notre support 24h/24 sur worldcitytrail.com/chat pour toute aide en temps réel! Nous espérons vous retrouver bientôt dans une autre ville! 🗺️
Very nice experience, to do at his own pace.. I recommend!!!
Merci beaucoup Josy pour ce beau retour ! 😊 Nous sommes ravis que vous ayez apprécié la visite d'Annecy à votre rythme. C'est exactement l'expérience que nous souhaitons offrir — instructive, flexible et mémorable. Nous vous attendons dans une autre ville bientôt !
Generally it was good fun and absorbing but navigating the app and using the maps to go from one location to another was confusing at first. A decent mobile signal was essential to as occasionally we were stuck until the signal came back.
Good fun but not for December. The Christmas Market meant lots of the attractions were difficult to get to or unaccessible. Also some of the map names were different to how it was listed on the game
