The experience

About this quest

Berlin, a city divided by walls and secrets, is your battlefield. Disguised by the hat of the season, you walk among strangers with a mission that could change the course of history. You're not a diplomat—you’re a spy. One pocket holds hope, the other danger. And now, your next checkpoint awaits.

In this immersive quest, you'll walk through the shadowy corners and grand landmarks of Berlin, solving real-world puzzles and decoding clues hidden in plain sight. From the haunting calm of prison parks to narrow alleys echoing with whispers of the Cold War, every step brings you deeper into the story.

Perfect for friends or families seeking a thrilling adventure, this walking quest is a game of wits, movement, and memory-making. The mission is yours. Will you see it through?

Is this for you?

Who it's for

Starting and ending at Moabit Historical Prison Park, this 3.3 km loop takes in the Berlin Wall Memorial on Bernauer Strasse, the Chapel of Reconciliation and Hamburger Bahnhof, with Cold War spy puzzles. Espionage fans, couples and families who enjoy playing a role will like it. At around three hours outdoors among Wall memorials, it is a poor fit for anyone wanting a live guide or time indoors.

Frequently asked questions

Is there a spy game you can play on the streets of Berlin?
Yes. You play a spy on a self-guided walk through Berlin. Your phone leads you from place to place, tells the story of each spot and sets a puzzle in what is in front of you, with Cold War themes along a 3.3 km route.
Where does the walk start and finish?
It starts and ends at Moabit Historical Prison Park, so you finish where you began. In between you pass the Berlin Wall Memorial on Bernauer Strasse, the Chapel of Reconciliation, the Natural History Museum, Invalidenpark, Sandkrug Bridge and Hamburger Bahnhof.
How long does it take, and do we need to book a time?
Plan for about 3 hours to cover the 3.3 km route. There is no set start time, so you begin whenever you like, and you can pause and continue later. It is best played during the day.
Is it suitable for children?
It is recommended for families, and the puzzles use what you can see around you. Children who can walk for around 3 hours will manage best. The story visits Wall memorials, a cemetery and a former prison site, so it suits children ready for that history.
Can we play as a group?
Yes. One ticket covers your whole group, up to the number of devices stated. There is no guide and no group to join, so you play at your own pace together.
What is the Secrets of Berlin spy mission?
You take on a fictional secret-agent mission through Berlin. The route uses coded clues and city locations between Moabit and the Wall Memorial as the setting.
Is this experience self-guided?
Yes. The Questo app guides you from clue to clue, with no guide or fixed start time. You can begin when it suits you and pause along the way.
How many accesses does our group need?
Classic quests sell access per device and player. Each person who wants to solve clues on their own phone needs their own access.
