Informazioni su questa esperienza

Nijmegen, the oldest city in the Netherlands, once part of the Roman Empire. 
In this quest, you’ll explore it through the eyes of Quintus, a young Roman soldier. Walk past hidden walls, ancient roads, and forgotten stories. Learn how the Romans built, ruled, spoke, and lived. 
From emperors to everyday people; there’s so much to see, to hear, to learn… and sometimes even to touch. Are you ready to take the journey? 

What to Expect

This self-guided walking tour in Nijmegen combines exploration, storytelling, and puzzle-solving into one unique experience. As you navigate through the city, you will discover 11 carefully selected locations, each revealing a piece of the story.

The entire quest takes approximately 6000 minutes to complete and covers 1.7km on foot. You will move at your own pace, with the freedom to pause whenever you want to take photos, grab a coffee, or simply soak in the atmosphere.

Each location features a challenge or puzzle that unlocks the next chapter of your story. These challenges are designed to be fun and engaging while teaching you about the history, culture, and hidden gems of Nijmegen.

No tour guide needed – your smartphone becomes your guide. The Questo app provides directions, shares stories, and presents challenges along the way.

La missione: La tua storia a Nijmegen

My name is Quintus. I serve in the Tenth Legion, and this is Noviomagus, the Roman town beneath your feet. 
Walk with me, and I’ll show you what remains. Stones, walls, tombs… and forgotten names. 

You’ll learn about emperors, gods, language and numbers, and meet a woman once buried here. 
This isn’t a quest for glory, but for memory. Solve riddles, play along, and discover the past. It will be a fun journey through Nijmegen, or as I still call it, Noviomagus. 
  • Ensure your phone is fully charged or bring along your trusty power bank
  • Wear a hat and sunscreen, have enough water
  • Don't attempt when the river is high
  • Varied terrain/elevation, may not be suitable for those with limited mobility
  • Family friendly
  • Fun to do as a couple
