Lovely route (despite the rain!) - storyline was very weird but I imagine kids would like it. Thanks for highlighting some really interesting historical areas. And DEFINITELY allow time to go into the Musée d'Aquitaine!!

EllieLouSmy20

It was difficult to access and we had to reach out to support as the trail didn’t appear in the app. We found it harder than expected and ended up having to skip clues as we just couldn’t find the answers at all even when looking exactly where it said to look. Feels badly designed. We gave up after a few clues and just enjoyed wandering around the city!

Takes a lot longer than advertised, some clues are misleading. We did complete it but felt it could be improved somewhat.

The game was sometimes tricky and other times pretty easy, but always funny!! I was able to visit the city at my speed and stop longer in any place I wanted, and, at top of that, I've learned a lot about Bordeaux ! What else to say? I wish that every city will have it's own exploration game on day!

Fun and very clever tour concept. Plus, I discovered some spots and stories that weren’t listed in my guide! Pretty good.

Bonne activité à faire, cela permet de découvrir la ville d'une manière plus ludique. Le petit bémol était le fait de revenir parfois sur ses pas.

priscif2023

Great, fun, informative, ideal for a visit with teenagers. Places to visit that are historic and beautiful...maybe include a gourmet stopover?

chrisspeedy

Une visite de la ville très ludique et qui a enchanté ma fille… une façon originale de flâner dans la ville de bordeaux à pied.

Katrien_V

We zagen een zeer groot deel van de stad op een leuke manier, leuke verhalen en fijne weetjes! We zijn tevreden!

Malheureusement c'est un peu difficile pour moi de mettre une note objective car nous n'avons pu finalement n'en faire qu'une partie. Mais ce que nous avons fait était vraiment sympa. Attention les indications pour aller d'un endroit à l'autre ne sont pas toujours très claires et nous avons dû nous aider de Google Maps. L'histoire est sympa et à chaque étape il y a un texte donnant des explications historiques, c'est bien fait et on apprend beaucoup de choses sur Bordeaux. J'aurais aimé savoir s'il y avait moyen de terminer notre visite une prochaine fois car nous retournons bientôt à Bordeaux. Merci
