Frequently asked questions
What was Tomis, and how is it connected to Constanta?
Tomis was a small Greek colony on the shores of the Black Sea, and over about 2,500 years it grew into the city of Constanta. This walk tells that story stop by stop, covering the Greeks, Romans, Ottomans and the Romanian royal family, and ends at the harbour, the one place that has witnessed every era.
How long does the walk take and how far is it?
Plan for about an hour and ten minutes to cover roughly 2.7 km on foot. Since you can pause and continue later, you can stop for a coffee or a closer look along the way. Charge your phone fully before you set off or bring a power bank.
Is it suitable for children?
Yes, it is tagged as a family favourite and includes interactive puzzles you solve using what is in front of you. It suits school-age children who can manage a 2.7 km walk and follow a story about empires and rulers. Very young children may lose interest before the end.
Do we need to book a time, and can we play as a group?
No booking slot is needed: you start whenever you like, with no guide and no other groups. One ticket covers your whole group, and you play on your phones, so friends or family can work through the puzzles together and pause to continue later.
Where does the walk start and finish?
The route opens with a stop called Where It All Began and finishes at Constanta's harbour, passing landmarks tied to the city's Greek, Roman, Ottoman and royal past. The app leads you from one place to the next, so you do not need a map.
