5.00Fantastic Team Building Experience with CityQuester! We recently booked a city hunt with CityQuester as part of a team-building workshop, and I must say, everything went perfectly! From the initial contact to the follow-up email with wonderful photos, the entire process was seamless. All participants had a great time, and the event was organized flawlessly. The activities were engaging and fostered teamwork in a fun and interactive way. I highly recommend CityQuester for anyone looking to enhance team spirit and have a memorable experience. We would definitely love to do this again!

Made Our Visit to Vienna a Fun Adventure

5.00CityQuester provided a wonderful and memorable experience for my family and me during our first visit to Vienna. Having had a great experience on the CityQuester treasure hunt in Prague a few days earlier, we decided to do this one, too. Even though we provided them very short notice, they were able to accommodate us during our brief stay in the city. Our host, Shushan, was the best host you could ever ask for. Exceptionally friendly and bubbly, she was very knowledgeable about Vienna and gave us many useful tips and recommendations even beyond the treasure hunt itself. We found the Vienna hunt to be longer and more challenging than the Prague hunt, perhaps just a little too much for our 8 year old in the August Vienna heat. But Shushan let us take as many breaks as we needed, so with plenty of bubble tea and chocolate we were able to solve the mystery and earn our prize. And the fact that my kids refused to quit even when I gave them the option says more than anything about what they thought of it. Keeping kids engaged on a "grown-up" vacation can be a challenge, so having an adventure like this to do while exploring a new city is a godsend. So much better than wandering around aimlessly. Thank you, CityQuester!
Excellent team-building

5.00We had this activity as a part of our team-building gathering in Vienna. We were a group of abt 35 people and all of us enjoyed it so much! The treasure hunt game was challenging enough to keep everyone engages on nor get bored. We also had a wine degustation break in the middle of the game which was much appreciated! CityQuester team is flexible, helpful, and professional. Absolutely recommended.
