Turn Florence Into a Game

Florence rewards the curious. The city that shaped the Renaissance is still full of layers most visitors walk past, and Questo is built for the ones who want to find them. Pick a quest on your phone, step outside, and the city becomes the game.

The Duomo anchors the skyline, but Florence's real character lives in its side streets, across the Ponte Vecchio, and deep in the Oltrarno, the artisan quarter south of the Arno where workshops still outnumber souvenir shops and the pace drops the moment you cross the river.

Quests here range from conspiracy thrillers tracing the Medici dynasty to dark, atmospheric routes through Dante's Florence and missions that pull you into Renaissance intrigues. Whether you want history with suspense, ghost stories with a sense of place, or a playful challenge for a family afternoon, there is a route that fits the mood.

A few things locals know: Piazza Santo Spirito fills with Florentines at aperitivo hour, not tourists, so that is a good place to end a route. Oltrarno stays noticeably quieter than the north bank even in high season. For panoramic views without the midday heat, Piazzale Michelangelo is best at sunrise or just before. Questo suits couples, groups, and families equally, and works well as a flexible anchor for a full day out.
