Great way to see the city. - This was a great way to tour the city! The Questo app worked well. Some of the directions and puzzles were quite challenging which added to the fun. Will definitely look for more of these challenges in other cities.

Great way to explore Haarlem - Fun way to see some other places of the city and play a game at the same time. Going by train, you can start immediately when you get off the train, and you end in the middle of the lovely city center. Nice background story and a lot of interesting facts.

Great experience - Along all the high lights, nice such a story and very clear instructions. We ended up playing the route with only one phone, more people are not always needed if you do not want to compete.
