We got to see very beautiful and sometimes slightly hidden parts of Florence. The story and guidance was very interesting and capturing. Would recommend!
It was very confusing how to find the location. You’re asked to meet in front of a business, but the business did not even know what you were talking about. I had a lot of complications with getting on WhatsApp so I was unable to complete the self guided to scavenger hunt. I tried messaging and calling, but no answer on either. I am hoping to get a refund for this disappointing experience.
The treasure hunt uses WhatsApp. The narrative was amusing and drew you into the whole concept of helping to find the missing elixir. The clues were just challenging enough, we did need to seek help sometimes. The interaction with the different characters added to the experience and the reward at the end both welcome and delicious. The hunt suits small groups best. We would recommend it as a way of seeing lots of interesting places around Florence.
It was very fun and I enjoyed the prize. Would recommend.
Bring comfortable shoes, water and sunscreen if doing the tour during summer months And also kmowing some history facts about Florence will be fun and useful
Great experience, we've seen many hidden gems of Florence, it was fun and easy communicate, and the treat in the end was just delicious
I love it, it’s something different and you will definitely learn a lot from it- whether heritage or culture or food every aspect of it was a wonderful experience
Unique experience that took us places we wouldn’t have otherwise gone/found. Glad we did this. Wish it had been a bit more about history and stories of places. And wish it’d been available on audio.
Overall it was fairly fun. There were bits missing in some puzzles or over that were moved so made the puzzles unsolvable, but the overall concept was fun. Shame the elixir isn't vegan but it had us go to areas that we wouldn't have otherwise
So many hidden gems and lots of fun! My friend and I completed the quest for her birthday. A great way to explore the streets of Florence.
This was SO fun. We lived all the sneaky nooks and crannies. One local even said to us "only locals know this path!" And then he showed they we were right next to the oldest church in Florence. We lived the elixer and it was really interesting to be filled in on the history while we ate the elixer. Our 13 year old son loved this tour as well. We found great ships along the way and ended up seeing many sights. A must do!! We'll look for yours like this in the future.
This was a great way to experience the city with kids! We were able to stop and take breaks, eat and shop along the way.
It was amazing took us around the whole of Florence! We went to many attractions and there were many places to stop and eat😁
Great fun and a brilliant way to see the beautiful city. Lots of places we wouldn’t have seen just visiting Florence for two days. Would highly recommend
Excellent Tour, finding hidden places anf the elexir of life. We enjoyed walking through the city while solving various clues
This scavenger hunt was so much fun and it was fun learning about the history of Florence.Even after living here for 3 years I learned new things about the Medici
It was a lot of fun exploring different parts we might not have otherwise seen or visited! Highly recommend. Will there be another version if we come back to Florence?! U would do it again!
This experience was a lot of fun!! We went to places that we never would have on our own. The “story” was charming and clever. We learned a bit about history. The less than perfect part was that it was a bit too long and there was no way to end without abandoning it. Just as it seems to be ending there’s another clue and then another. If you want closure there is none but to push through. If you’re tired, that’s hard. But I loved the first 3/4s of it!
This was a fun way to see the city and some of the not so well known places. The starting point was somewhere we absolutely loved visiting and would never have known about without doing this . The ending point was a highlight and the whole thing was fun and the clues were well thought out. I would thoroughly recommend this.
Fun way to tour the city! We definitely discovered some new places that we hadn’t walked through before. I would recommend this for a couple.
An engaging and creative tour through the streets of Florence! A very original and unique way to experience the city, from the touristy classics like the duomo and ponte vecchio to more niche and hidden-gem locations. Creative and fun puzzles are littered throughout a simple but compelling story that immerses you in renaissance politics (and even teaches some history for good measure!). Would strongly recommend to anyone looking to explore the streets and have fun at the same time!
This was an absolute highlight of our Florence stay! The clues are filled with so much personality and we explored places we never would have found otherwise. Each spot was so great and incredibly unexpected in their beauty! We were blown away by stop one and even passed places that we then went back to visit the next day. We could’ve stopped at the time, but we were having too much fun! The perfect mix of mystery, drink stops and eateries, as well as solutions if we ever got stuck or lost. We didn’t find a few of the clues, but even so we were directed to our next steps and the process was seamless. My husband and I highly recommend this to anyone looking to explore some lesser known areas of Florence, and seeing the beauty that Florence has to offer. While we were here for 4 days, this remained our favourite for so many reasons! Even if you just want to orient yourself for other hotspots, this was just delight after delight at every turn. We will be telling all our friends and family to complete this on their stay!
Wonderful experience, we had fun and visited Florence from a not-so-touristy perspective.
Top experience We saw places we didn't know! Great gift idea!! Clear and fun directions Absolutely worth doing again!
Experience absolutely recommended! An enigmatic, fun, and engaging adventure, discovering exclusive places and fascinating corners of Florence. The clues are clear and well-structured, and the story is truly fascinating: a perfect mix of mystery, culture, and fun that allows you to experience the city in an original and stimulating way. An experience different from the usual, capable of making you feel like the protagonist of a story set in Renaissance Florence. Highly recommended! 🏛️🔍
It was a nice experience, to spend a different half-day and discover parts of Florence that even those who have frequented it for years may not know. Everything perfectly organized and taken care of. Thank you
Very fun and the final elixir was fabulous
We had a lot of fun with the clues and the game was explained very well but not very simple, consequently it was a repeatable experience. Slightly too expensive
Very nice, maybe a little too much reading on WhatsApp but it was interesting.
Fun, nice, and original
Very fun, too bad about some closed locations
Complete and immersive experience. We had a lot of fun wandering around Florence discovering new corners!
Highly recommended experience, an interesting and fun way to discover Florence!
Very cute and very nice experience, but having done it on a Sunday (an option on the site), many places to enter and look for clues were closed, and that compromised our hunt a bit!
A very fun and at times stimulating experience, recommended for those who want to know a city in an alternative way
Everything is very nice and well organized.
Very beautiful and innovative; we saw places in Florence that were very beautiful and typical, which we did not know before. I highly recommend it.
A beautiful experience, it reveals places that otherwise one would hardly see if just passing through! Highly recommended and fun!
Engaging and very well done treasure hunt; a different way to discover the city, taking advantage of all the little "pit stop" places they take you to. Definitely worth trying; we will highly recommend it!!
Beautiful and fun; the way we were involved made us wish for more stops and to learn more. The only downside was that we had difficulty at one stop due to the location not receiving service inside.
Ellipsis but experience through the streets of Florence
Really fun experience and I confirm that I have seen corners of Florence that I had never had occasion to visit or whose existence I was unaware of. Recommended to everyone, not tiring and I also recommend taking the opportunity to visit buildings along the way also not directly related to research, such as some very beautiful churches!
Great experience, fun and not too complicated. It allows you to see lesser-known corners of Florence. You have more fun if you compete in two teams. Excellent support
Fun experience, which made us discover peculiarities and enchanting places of Florence.
Very nice and stimulating, recommended!
Nice experience! Rich in ideas and allowing you to visit the iconic places fi Florence but also some hidden corners. Clues easy to decipher even if intriguing. The elixir... exceptional!
Fun experience, discovered really nice places that despite being from Florence most of us, did not know. Final elixir top!!! Super recommended! Duration about 2 hours well spent
We had so much fun!! We discovered places in Florence that to date have remained in the heart, playing and above all without consulting a map.
The route amazed us, I can’t wait for it to be implemented with many other special places to visit
Very nice, instructive and nice
