How long does it take and how far is the walk?
Most players take just over two hours, walking and puzzles included, over about 3.8 km. You can pause at any point and continue later, so it is easy to break for a coffee or a meal in the old town.
Can we play as a group, and is it suitable for children?
Yes, one ticket covers the whole group playing together on a phone. It suits families with school-age children who enjoy spotting details in fountains, sculptures and buildings, as long as they can manage the full 3.8 km walk.
Do we need to book a time slot?
