Great history

We got to experience the town despite not clocking in with our guide. Beautiful town and place here.

We discovered the famous red light district of Amsterdam through a game of track that took us from clue to clue

Schöne Tour mit leichten Aufgaben

Rene_S, Aug 2023

Schöne Tour zu interessanten Bauwerken in Amsterdam eingebettet in eine kleine Geschichte. Die Aufgaben sind sehr leicht, also nichts für echte Escaperoom Fans.

Leuk stadsspel

Heleen_V, Feb 2023

Heel fijne, ongedwongen manier om de eerste kennismaking met de stad te doen. Zeer aangenaam, waarin je alles op je eigen tempo kan doen.

Response from Host, Feb 2023

Thank you for sharing positive experience with Questo. We are grateful that you enjoyed the game. Hope to see you explore more games with us.

Découverte d'une partie de la ville de façon très agréable !

Nathalie_R, Jul 2022

Cette activité nous a permis de découvrir des coins de la ville dans lesquels nous n'étions pas passés, les trajets pour aller d'un point à un autre sont assez courts et nous emmènent dans des ruelles agréables. Je conseille entre amis ou en famille!

Response from Host, Jul 2022

Yay! We are happy that you have enjoyed msterdam Old Town: "The Old Sailor" Exploration Game and you've learned more about the city. Thank you for your feedback and we are excited for your next quest!
