Nice way to discover the city and the history of Quebec
Very nice way to get to know the city, especially with children. The app worked great. It was nice to get a piece of information at every sight (also audio possible) and meanwhile it felt like a treasure hunt for the kids. The puzzles were just challenging enough and very varied. Definitely recommended!
Bedankt voor deze geweldige review! 😊 Info bij elke bezienswaardigheid (ook als audio) terwijl het voor de kids als een echte speurtocht voelde, met precies uitdagende en afwisselende puzzels — dat is precies wat we willen bieden in Quebec! We hopen u en de kinderen binnenkort te verwelkomen in een andere stad! 🗺️
My boyfriend and I missed a guided tour that we had booked for our day trip to Quebec City on our trip here. We were feeling down that we were going to miss out on seeing all the amazing sights. A quick Google search landed up on the World City Trails app, and a scavenger hunt to self guide our way through old Quebec City. The price was great so we thought, why not? Buying this scavenger hunt was a highlight of our trip. It was knowledgeable, fun, and being able to complete it at our own pace made it even better. We completed half before lunch and half after. Not to mention the cute little food attraction recommendations. We are getting ready for our second adventure with them tonight through the streets of Montreal! This is a MUST DO!
Thank you so much Caylee! 😊 Turning a missed guided tour into a highlight of your trip is exactly why we built World City Trail — and hearing you're already heading out through the streets of Montreal tonight makes our day! Knowledgeable, fun, at your own pace, with cute food stops along the way — that's the whole experience in a nutshell. Enjoy Montreal, and with 167 cities available your third adventure is already waiting! 🗺️
I found the clues difficult to understand. I haven’t done many scavenger hunts like this so that could be why. My suggestion is to provide a bit more explanation of the answers like for example…
Thank you for your feedback! We're sorry the clues weren't clear enough in Old Quebec. Your suggestion about explaining the answers more fully is a good one and we'll pass it to our team — we're actively working on making the puzzles easier to follow for first-timers. Our 24/7 chat at worldcitytrail.com/chat is also always there to help with any clue. We hope to welcome you on a smoother adventure soon! 🗺️
As the Quebec city Old Town is pretty small that tour covering most significant attractions at your own pace.
Thank you so much! 😊 Covering the most significant attractions of Quebec's Old Town at your own pace — that's exactly what we want to offer! We hope to welcome you on another adventure in a different city soon! 🗺️
Bit boring. Little interactive. The route is okay but similar is also available for free on the net
Vielen Dank für Ihr Feedback. Es tut uns leid, dass die Erfahrung in Québec nicht spannend genug war und zu wenig interaktiv wirkte. Wir nehmen Ihr Feedback sehr ernst und arbeiten kontinuierlich daran, unsere Inhalte abwechslungsreicher und interaktiver zu gestalten. Unser Ziel ist es, ein Erlebnis zu bieten, das weit über das hinausgeht, was man kostenlos im Netz findet — mit Audio-Narration, lokalen Legenden, interaktiven Rätseln und Geschichten, die die Stadt lebendig werden lassen. Wir hoffen, Sie bald in einer anderen Stadt begrüßen zu dürfen und Ihnen eine bereichernde Erfahrung zu bieten! 🗺️
Québec City is incredibly picturesque, and this scavenger hunt made exploring it even more fun and immersive! The clues took us through cobblestone streets, historic landmarks, and hidden courtyards in Old Québec that felt straight out of Europe. We learned fascinating facts about the city’s French heritage while solving puzzles and enjoying the scenery. The freedom to stop for coffee or photos made it perfect. A fantastic experience , fun, educational, and beautifully designed!
This could have been the perfect way for us to see the city. We weren't sure if we each needed or own device (if you like to work as a group, one device is fine. It was nice that it was an option to use multiple devices.) The issue was the app ATE battery. We have two androids less than a year old and a brand new Iphone. All three went from full charge to less than 10% in a couple of hours. We had to go back to the hotel room to recharge our phones. Uninstalled the app, and the phones lasted the expected 24+ hours.
Thank you for your feedback and we're glad you found the activity fun and a great way to explore Quebec! 😊 We take your battery concern very seriously — three devices draining that rapidly is not the experience we want anyone to have and we have passed this information to our development team to investigate. You make a great practical point about one device being sufficient for a group — we'll make sure to highlight this more clearly in our instructions. We recommend keeping screen brightness low and closing background apps before starting to help preserve battery life. Please reach out to us at worldcitytrail.com/chat with your booking number and we'd love to find a solution for the interruption to your experience. Thank you for the constructive feedback — it genuinely helps us improve! 🗺️
It was a waste of money, not well planned out. The route was okay but the riddles were bad. Also we paid for 2 but we only needed one, it wasn’t well explained. It was difficult to get into the app as the confirmation number needed wasn’t on the ticket so I had to contact help.
Thank you for your feedback and we're sorry the experience in Old Quebec didn't meet your expectations. We take your comments about the riddles and route planning seriously and will review the Quebec content to make improvements. Regarding the confirmation number — we're sorry it wasn't easy to find on your ticket and that you had to contact support to get started. We'll work on making this clearer in our booking instructions. On the per person pricing — each ticket provides a full individual experience on their own device with personalised audio, which is why tickets are sold per person. We understand this may not have been sufficiently clear before purchase and we'll improve how we communicate this. We hope you'll give us another chance in a different city! 🗺️
My boyfriend and I recently tried the walking tour, and it was the perfect way to explore the charming city of Quebec. We loved how the tour combined history, culture, and a bit of friendly competition.The riddles were challenging enough to keep us engaged, but not so difficult that we got frustrated. One of our favorite moments was solving a riddle that led us to a cozy little café.
