About Nice

In Nice, Questo turns a walk through France into a self-guided city game. Pick one of 4 active Questo quests, follow clues on your phone, solve puzzles, and unlock a story as you move from stop to stop. There is no guide to meet and no fixed start time, so you can begin when the day works for you. Nice works well for travelers who want more than a checklist of sights. Each quest gives you a route, a reason to look closer, and small challenges that make the city feel interactive. Use the game as a playful way to plan time around local places such as Marche Aux Fleurs Nice, Place Massena Nice, and Monument Aux Morts Nice. It suits couples, families, groups of friends, and solo explorers who like flexible outdoor activities. Choose a compact set of walking games, pause whenever you want, and turn time in Nice into a walk with a plot.
