This was a fun way to do a walking tour of Brussels, without the need to stick with a tour group or go by any specific route or schedule. Although the game/tour could have been finished in 60-90 minutes, we took a lot longer, stopping for lunch and a coffee as and when we wanted. We also took a couple of detours to visit other places of interest between clues. The clues themselves were pretty easy to see and work out (except for 1, due to night closing in), but that didn't deminish from the experience. We will definitely be looking at more tours like this when we visit other cities.

Really good way to see Brussels without a time limit. We didn't have a plan for the day so this was perfect.
This seemed like a fun way to explore Brussels but ended up just a distracting nuisance. After buying the voucher (only €4 per person) and downloading the app it uses Google maps to guide you to about 10 cool sites around Brussels with a quick challenge at each stop. Unfortunately the app is really inflexible, so unless you're going to devote a few hours to only doing this and following the same route (rather than exploring the city) you have to mess about with it a lot to make it move on from point to point. We gave up on it after the second stop.
I have used World City trail in numerous Belgian cities. As I toured for a couple of weeks. It took me to all the important places, gave background in history, and added little interesting stories to go along with things that you see. A lot of the fun is going through the neighborhoods from one point to another, showcasing many parts of the cities that you're visiting that you might not see otherwise.
We loved it and got to see all the important sites in Brussels and had a blast along the way trying to wrack our brains, figuring out the answers
Great way of seeing some hidden gems at your own pace
Great way to see the city at your own pace and flexibility to slow down, take a side detour, or move faster. Kept our teenager engaged. Totally worth it!
Good activity. Able to pause it when stopped for food etc. Took us to all the main spots. Good to have to look for things at the sites too. Excellent value for money
In expensive. Good information on each site. Would recommend on any visit to a new city as it takes ypu round the main sites, but you can pause at anytime.
I had an amazing day in Brussels—it’s a truly beautiful city! Thanks to World City Trail, we learned so much along the way, which made the experience even more enjoyable. Highly recommended if you’re looking for an easy and fun way to explore the city with a unique and unconventional guided tour.
It was very cool experience. I am more self-observer / explorer and I loved that there was enough info about the places but not too much. I hate historical lectures but in this expedition I got very ineresting facts about Brussel’s best places.
It’s a fun family experience taking in some of the most beautiful sites in Brussels. We had so much fun solving the clues too.
We took a city trip to Brussels as a family with all age groups from 3-70 years old and used the scavenger hunt as a good family activity. We explored the city at our own pace and saw many sights, received information, and also solved puzzles. We had a lot of fun, thanks We will do the whole thing again in the next city.
Very good. A nice tour of the center of Brussels
Fun experience with the children (10 and 11 years old). They liked the variety of the puzzles. A beautiful first afternoon in Brussels to discover beautiful points of interest!
Already the third tour above the provider. We are satisfied every time. You get to know the city, see the most important spots and still have a small task and a lot of fun
A nice idea to visit the city with historical anecdotes. Recommended to have an organized route that gives you goals to achieve while enjoying the city
The main sights are visited and the puzzles make it more exciting for the kids. A km indication would still be nice as well as an age recommendation we were glad to have the buggy with us for the five year old it would be very far
