Solve real-world puzzles and follow clues to track down your next stop. With every twist and turn, uncover Dijon’s rich history and its secrets while moving through time.

Is this for you?

Who it's for

Friends, couples and families with school-age children get a playful time-travel delivery puzzle game across central Dijon, from Jardin Darcy past the Halls, The Owl and the ducal palace to Saint-Bénigne Cathedral. It takes around two and a half hours over 3.1 km, with under-12s playing alongside a parent. Anyone hoping for a live guide to quiz about the dukes, or for a short stroll, should pick something else.

Frequently asked questions

What is the time-traveling takeout game in Dijon?
It is a self-guided puzzle walk where you play a delivery driver whose latest orders come from time travelers. Your phone leads you between real sights in central Dijon, tells the story of each place and sets a puzzle based on what is in front of you.
Does the route pass Place François Rude?
Yes. François Rude Place is the fifth stop, reached after Jardin Darcy, Guillaume Gate, the Post Office and the Halls. From there the route continues to Church Notre-Dame and The Owl, so the app guides you there and on to the next stop.
Where does it start and finish, and how long does it take?
You start at Jardin Darcy and finish at Saint-Bénigne Cathedral, so it is not a loop. The route covers about 3.1 km, and most players take around two and a half hours including walking and solving the puzzles.
Is it suitable for children?
Yes, school-age children can join in, but kids under 12 should be guided by their parents through the clues and the walk. With around two and a half hours on foot across the city centre, it suits children who are comfortable with a longer outing.
Can we play as a group and pause along the way?
Yes. One ticket covers the whole group playing together on the route. There is no set start time or group to join, so you can begin whenever you like, pause for a coffee or lunch, and continue the game later.
I’m visiting Dijon with kids—will they stay interested?

Yes! The quest is built like a time-travel delivery mission, so children feel like helpers on a secret job. The clues keep them moving while you stroll past mustard shops, medieval streets, and lively squares.

We’d love a romantic walk that’s not just dinner—does this work?

Definitely. Stroll side by side through cobbled lanes and hidden courtyards, solve playful puzzles, and pause at cozy cafĂ©s. It’s equal parts date and mini-adventure.

We’re a bunch of friends—will this be fun for us?

Absolutely. Split into teams, race to crack the riddles, and laugh when someone takes a wrong turn. It’s a great way to discover Dijon’s old town together and spark some friendly competition.
