Florence Hidden Gems: The Kidnapper is on the loose in Florence.

This was a fun way to explore the city. We were able to walk through little Vias that we never would have experienced. Fun facts and great way to see the city.

What makes these quests in Florence more fun than a regular walking tour?

Because you're not just watching—you’re part of a story. You’ll wander past the Duomo, Ponte Vecchio, Uffizi—all while following clues, solving puzzles, and uncovering secrets nobody mentions in guidebooks.

What’s a romantic thing to do in Florence if I’m here with my partner?

Try Saving Michelangelo: The Florence Mission or a mystery quest around sunset. Stroll through Piazza della Signoria, cross Ponte Vecchio, get golden-light views from Piazzale Michelangelo—plus puzzles to share.

Is Florence good for families and kids with these quests?

Definitely for families with older kids who like solving things and listening to stories. Some quests are lighter and playful, with ghost tales or kid-friendly mysteries. If small kids are along, pick a route that has breaks and interesting visuals.

Is it safe and easy to walk these quests?

Yup. Most routes go through well-populated, popular parts of the city—old town, piazzas, main streets. Some stairs or steeper streets in the hills (like around Oltrarno or up to Piazzale Michelangelo), so comfy shoes help.

Can I do these quests solo, or are they better with friends?

Both work. Solo means you go at your own speed, soak up moments quietly; with friends or a partner you get to solve together, laugh, argue over the clues—makes it more social.

Do I need to reserve in advance or meet someone?

No need. These are self-guided games. Just choose one, go to the starting point (usually a landmark), and you can begin when it suits you.

Explore Florence at your own pace with Questo's self-guided walking tours. Follow app-guided clues through the streets, solve puzzles at famous landmarks, and discover hidden stories most visitors miss. No tour guide, no fixed schedule — just open the app and start walking.
