Frequently asked questions
What can I do in Rome with Questo?
How many outdoor city games are available in Rome?
Is there a murder mystery game in Rome?
Is there a ghost tour in Rome?
Do I need to book an activity in Rome in advance?
I only have a few days in Rome. Can a quest help me see the highlights quickly?
Yes. Quests are designed to guide you past Rome’s most iconic landmarks—like the Pantheon, Piazza Navona, Trevi Fountain, and Castel Sant’Angelo—while also revealing hidden corners most tours skip. You’ll get both the “must-see” highlights and secret gems, all in just a couple of hours.
I don’t like crowded guided tours. Is this a good alternative?
Absolutely. With Questo, you’re in charge. There’s no guide, no group, and no fixed start time. You can begin whenever you want, pause for a gelato, take photos, or even stop for dinner before continuing. It’s like having a private tour, but at your own pace.
Is there something fun to do in Rome with kids?
Yes—Kid Quest: The Day the Senses Went Silent is a family favorite for kids ages 4-8, and Angels and Demons for older ones.. Kids follow a playful story while walking through real streets, solving puzzles along the way. It turns sightseeing into an adventure and keeps children excited instead of bored.
I love mystery and history. Do you have quests like that in Rome?
You’ll love Rome’s Prostitute Empress: The Suburra Mystery, which mixes ancient history with a murder mystery storyline in the Monti district near the Roman Forum. If you’re more into Dan Brown–style adventures, try the Angels & Demons Outdoor Escape Game, where you chase clues tied to the Illuminati across famous landmarks.
Can I explore Rome at night with a quest?
Yes. Quests are available anytime, day or night. Many travelers enjoy starting in the evening, when landmarks like Trevi Fountain and Piazza Venezia are beautifully lit and the streets are quieter. It’s a unique way to experience Rome after dark. For the night, we recommend you play the Ghosts of Rome quest.
Are quests good for couples or groups of friends?
Definitely. Couples love them as a romantic, interactive date night, and groups enjoy splitting into teams and competing to solve the puzzles first. It’s a memorable way to explore the Eternal City together.
Do I need to book in advance?
No advance booking is needed. Just download the Questo app, choose your quest, and head to the starting point. Play when it suits your schedule—it’s perfect for travelers who want flexibility.
