Horrible waste of time
I could not access the quest I paid for it three separate times on Viator and on the actual app. We spent about two hours trying to figure it out, wasting our day as well.I also emailed and messaged them and received no reply so we left the city without being able to do it. Nothing worked from our codes ,to retrying on the actual app,and following all directions that were given to us. It’s the next day and I still have not received anything or a reply back. It was also no way to contact anyone or besides through email or messages on the app.

Hi there,
We are incredibly sorry to hear that you experienced such a frustrating delay and were unable to access your game while visiting Chicago. This is certainly not the seamless onboarding experience we aim to provide for our players.
Our exploration games are fully digital and designed to unlock automatically within the Questo app as soon as a Viator booking voucher code is entered. Because we monitor our system logs and support channels around the clock to assist players with real-time troubleshooting, we are deeply concerned to hear that your codes did not register and that your messages did not reach us.
We want to investigate exactly what went wrong with your booking transmission and support ticket so we can resolve this properly. Please reach out to our management team directly at [insert support email address] with your Viator booking reference number so we can look into our logs, find your messages, and issue you a full solution.
Best regards,
The Questo Team

These feets we're made for walking
The scavenger hunt was fun. I just wish there was a pause button for potty and snack breaks. Our overall completion time was 2 hours after the food breaks. Who can concentrate on playing a game when your next to Chinatown and all the restaurants they offer.

Some Glitches But Still Good
This was a great way to learn more about Chinatown and its history. The puzzles were just challenging enough to keep us engaged. One of the landmarks is under construction so we weren't able to solve that portion of the quest. We took a group photo but the app glitched so unfortunately, it didn't save it and I don't have any photos of the experience. I'm looking forward to signing up for more quests in the future!
Operator response

We’re sorry about the construction detour and the photo glitch — we know how important those group memories are. Our team is looking into improving the photo-saving feature so future quests run more smoothly.
We look forward to welcoming you back on another quest soon.

Fun but confusing.
The directions at times were unclear. I feel like a more detailed map would have helped me to not get turned around a couple times. But the people in Chinatown extremely nice. So that helped balance the frustration at times.
Operator response
Thank you for your feedback! I'm glad to hear you had a positive experience with the friendly people in Chinatown, even if the directions were a bit challenging at times. We appreciate your suggestion for a more detailed map and will definitely consider it as we work to improve the experience. We hope you’ll join us again for another adventure!

Good
We had a great time with the first 7 stops but then we went into an unsafe appearance area. So an overview map would have helped relieve our fears.
Operator response

Your feedback about having an overview map to provide reassurance is valuable, and we'll certainly look into how we can incorporate this to improve future adventures.

Not great
not the best way to discover a neighborhood, maybe if you're there with young children
otherwise you're better off just googling the sights and visiting them on your own

If you ever decide to give Questo another try or have any questions, feel free to reach out to us at care@questoapp.com Your input helps us improve our experiences.
