Frequently asked questions

How can I take a fun, self-guided tour of Utrecht?

Questo turns your tour into a game! With the Monster Mystery Escape Game, you’ll wander through Utrecht’s winding canals, past the Dom Tower, and into hidden lanes—all while solving riddles along the way. It’s more engaging than a typical walking tour and gives you the freedom to go at your own pace.

What’s a good quest for families with kids?

If you're traveling with younger explorers, the Monster Mystery is surprisingly kid-friendly. The story, puzzles, and landmarks (like the Speelklok Museum and Centraal Museum) keep kids engaged as they walk and play together.

Does this work as a weekend outing or date activity?

Definitely. The Monster Mystery game is widely available—play any day, at any time (even evenings). Whether you’re exploring Utrecht’s old town solo, on a date, or with friends, it offers a fresh and fun alternative to traditional sightseeing.

Is this good for groups or team outings?

Absolutely. You can stroll together and work through clues as a team, or split into friendly rival groups. The game feels like a portable escape room mixed with a neighborhood stroll—full of local lore and interactive moments.

Do I need to book a specific time? What’s the route like?

Nope—no booking needed. Just get the app, launch the quest when you're ready, and start walking. The route is about 2.5 km (3,290 steps) and takes around 55–85 minutes, depending on how much you stop to explore.
