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!!

A wonderful tour around Sofia's hidden communist secrets. You will solve puzzles to get to the next stop and will learn what it was like to live here some half a century ago.

Great opportunity to see the city you live in from a totally different perspective and to learn more about communism.

We had so much fun learning about the communist times and seeing Sofia from a totally different perspective. I would highly recommend and I would definitely do it again.

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.

vladyg2018

We had an amazing time and learned a lot about the shadow of communism that still lurks around the corner in Bulgaria. The tour was very well thought out, I would even do it again with other friends!
