Highly enjoyable walking tour through Sofia - I had a highly enjoyable time using the Questo app to explore Sofia, the information was in-depth yet entertaining, the distance of the walk was perfect and I feel like we passed by all the must-see's and even some lesser known hidden gems. This definitely exceeded my expectations and I'd say its a great way to explore Sofia for foreigners like me.

Exploring the hidden past of Sofia in a gamified quest - Very informative and fun game taking you around some of the most interesting hidden places in Sofia. You solve mysteries and follow clues to unravel the story of a fallen communist hero.

Download Questo app directly - The app works well and the sites selected were worthwhile! Even so, many of the puzzles were silly, needlessly confusing, or irrelevant to the historical importance. The storyline was amusing. Players should know that the total time to play the game/ tour the sites is longer than the game estimates. More, you may save money by not doing this through Trip Advisor but instead download the free Questo app and buy similar games from any city for perhaps less!!
