About this quest

You’re a Dutch sailor turned treasure-seeker, lured to Brussels by a strange map won from a homeless man. At first, you laughed it off - but then the map led you to real rewards, hidden in plain sight. Now, it points to one final prize: a chest of gold. Could it be true? Or just the ultimate trick? 

To find out, you must follow the trail through Brussels’ most iconic streets, solve clever puzzles, and uncover clues etched into the city's history. This is no ordinary stroll—it's a real-world treasure hunt through hidden gems and grand plazas. 

Perfect for friends or family, this quest turns a walk into an unforgettable adventure. The gold may or may not be real, but the memories? They're guaranteed.

Highlights

  • You better not miss the EU buildings while you are in the heart of Europe.

  • With the astonishing Royale Palace and the buildings around it, taste the old bourgeoisie’s architecture.

  • Don’t forget to taste the finest Belgian chocolates in Royal Gallery.

The mission: Your story in Brussels

You are a Dutch sailor/trader and found yourself in Brussels after following a map you won from a homeless man. The map promises a huge pile of gold in a chest! You didn’t believe it in the first place but the map took you to other small prizes before without effort and now you think it can be real.

This last challenge for the treasure will be harder than before, though.
