Flexible and fun
We only had a morning to explore the city as part of our flying visit to go to a nearby spa so we opted for a walking tour to make the most of our time. We really enjoyed this experience where we could take our time and really see the city. We only struggled to find the answer for one of the locations because we were looking in the wrong direction for a painted balcony 😅
We enjoyed learning about the history of the city and found the information was written in an engaging way where you could learn more if you wanted to
Operator response
Thanks for the fantastic review! I am so glad the game gave you a fun, flexible way to make the most of your morning in Bucharest, even with that tricky painted balcony search. Hope to see you exploring another city with Questo soon!

A waste of time
The information about the location is wrong. There is no Starbucks anymore the info is old. We spent 15 minutes figuring this out
Operator response
I am truly sorry that you wasted time looking for a Starbucks that is no longer there. We do our best to keep our tours updated, so I really appreciate you pointing this out so we can fix it immediately. Please send us an email at explore@questoapp.com so we can investigate this and offer you a free quest for your next adventure.

Getting your bearings
A great way to get your bearings in a new city.
Quite simple to follow, although the starting point was slightly wrong but we worked it out.
Operator response
I'm so glad the treasure hunt helped you get your bearings in Bucharest! It's great to hear you found the route simple to follow, but I appreciate the heads-up about the starting point being slightly off. We'll definitely double-check those coordinates to make sure they are perfectly accurate for future players. Hope you'll explore another new city with us soon!

Great chance to explore
The tour was great fun, we got to see and learn about a lot of really interesting parts of Bucharest. Booking through TripAdvisor was complicated, just use the Questo app, it's a lot more straightforward

Fun and engaging solo experience
I did the quest alone and really enjoyed it!
The tasks were quite easy but still made me think — a great balance. I’d say the difficulty level is just right for most people. It was interesting, exciting, and definitely worth trying.
Highly recommend!
Operator response

Fun way to explore Bucharest with friends
I did this quest with my boyfriend and another couple, and honestly, it was such a fun experience. It took us around the center of Bucharest and made us look at familiar places in a new way. The clues were interesting, some even made us think a bit, but nothing too hard. We had done another quest on this app before and really enjoyed it, so we thought we'd try it again and bring our friends along this time. The app is super easy to use and the quests are really well put together. Definitely a cool way to explore a city, especially if you're into walking and solving little challenges along the way.
Operator response
Thanks so much for your review! We're really glad you and your friends had fun exploring Bucharest and enjoyed the mix of clues and walking. It means a lot that you came back for a second quest—hope to see you on another one soon!
