Make sure you go to the right place
There are two hotels with the same name as the meeting place. I think you should be more specific and say where it is. We never use the ticket and I hope I get a refund. Extremely disappointed.

Brainstorming to discover the marsh
This game allowed us to visit the marsh and discover places we would have missed. The puzzles are not always very simple but we had a good time with family - more than 10 km walk - 2 hours of activity.
