Great city tour through Rotterdam - A really great and exciting city tour. We saw parts of Rotterdam that we would never have been to otherwise. Despite that, we also visited all the important places. We would be happy to do it again in the next city.

Family, with seniors review - Great way to see all the top spots of cultural/historical importance in the city with in an interesting way. A little bit too long for my senior parents, but we took our time and got through it with quite a few breaks in 2.5hrs

Great way to see Rotterdam - This game is a great way to see and learn about Rotterdam. We only had one day in Rotterdam so we took the train to Rotterdam Centraal where the game started. We saw so many cool places and were able to stop half way for a lunch at one of the many restaurants along the route. I definitely recommend this if you have kids and want to tour the city, go at your own pace. and learn but also not pay as much as you would with a tour guide. One thing to note is that the game ends about a mile from Rotterdam Centraal so plan your travels accordingly.

Great Value Fun Way to Explore - We visited Rotterdam on a cruise for the day and wanting to explore on our own, we love escape rooms, treasure trails and found questo. Great app interface and ensured we saw places we wouldnt when just roaming freely. Have recommeded to friends and we deffo use Questo on our next trips.

Rotterdam Spy Game: 20/7-2022 - This was such a wonderful Questo 😍 I got to experience so many different parts of a wonderful city, while never feeling lost 💋 Difficult clues made me really focus on the details of each and every destination. I have already planned to do 5 other Questo's during my trip through Europe, and am looking very much forward to them all! 😍

Fun game, interesting story, good tour of Rotterdam - We enjoyed this "scavenger hunt" escape game as a way to explore Rotterdam. The story line was entertaining, and the clues led us to all kinds of interesting things to see. Some of the puzzle solutions were just a bit too obscure for us, but the hints helped solve them. We did have some trouble with crowds and construction sites, we were there on the King's Birthday holiday, and many streets were madhouses of vendors and people partying. Working our way through the crowds slowed us down and made some of the clues harder to find, on a different day it would be easier. I would like to see more information about route and distance to be traveled. As it turned out, we didn't have time to finish the game, which was a bit disappointing. The distances between targets were more than we expected, and we didn't hurry when we should have. What we did complete was fun and interesting, and we're going to investigate what other exploration games are available from Questo where we live.

Nice to get more information - Nice way to explore the city, so we saw more than we would have done without it. We just didn't read the story around it after a few parts. Probably more fun for kids. The history you got was interesting.

Rotterdam by Ossies - It is a very nice tour in which you see things you normally would not notice, or at least would not know the meaning of it. Some directions were not very clear, so we walked some extra meters.

An adventure to try absolutely - It was a great family experience. Ideal for discovering the city in a rather original way. But a small drawback: the explanations are not clear enough to orientate oneself, lack of details and landmarks, too bad! We appreciated being able to pause the game and then resume whenever we wanted (time for an ice cream and coffee break for example, or even shopping). Having said that, we had a great afternoon with our family, I recommend it.

Very Bad trip - The GPS directions were very approximate, indicating the left when it was the right, crossing a bridge that doesn't exist, etc. Very disapointed. In addition, incomplete names are not taken into account, even though it is not our country. I think there is a translation problem because it was not always very clear.
