Frequently asked questions
Where does the Bucharest theatre walk start and finish?
It starts at the Sheraton Hotel and loops back there at the end, so you finish where you began. In between, the app leads you past Nottara, Tandarica, Bulandra, In Culise, Improteca, Teatrul Infinit, Club 99 and Cinema Elvira Popescu, among other stops.
How long does it take and how far do we walk?
Plan on around 1.5 hours for a walk of about 3.3 km. The route has twelve stops, including a coffee shop, so there is a natural place for a break along the way. Since you set the pace, it can take a little longer if you linger.
Is this quest suitable for children?
There is no family version, and the puzzles rely on knowing well-known international actors, writers and movies. That makes it a better fit for teenagers and adults who follow film and theatre. Younger children are likely to find the questions hard and the 3.3 km walk long.
Can we play as a group, and do we need to book a time?
Yes, one ticket covers your whole group, up to the number of devices stated. There is no time slot to book and no guide to meet. You start whenever you like from the Sheraton Hotel and play on your phone.
Can we pause and continue later?
Yes. You can stop at any point, for example at the coffee shop on the route, and pick up again later from where you left off. That makes it easy to split the walk around a meal or a show.
Is Bucharest Theatrical Odyssey self-guided?
Yes. The Questo app guides you without a tour guide or fixed departure.
Where does it start and finish?
It starts at Sheraton Hotel, Calea Dorobanți 5, București 030167, Romania and finishes at Nottara, Bulevardul General Gheorghe Magheru 20, București 010334, Romania. 3.3 km; 12 puzzles.
