Nice, easy, inexpensive self-guided exploration.

4.00This was a fun way to kill a couple hours, while seeing some historic sites. We only did half of the scavenger hunt because we stopped to shop and then had to get ready for dinner. If we had stayed another day we would have finished.
Great Family Fun

5.00It was a great way to see the sights of Zurich. Loved that we could start at a time and place that suited us. Good fun with children helping to work out the answers.
Varied and informative

4.00It was quite fun and nice to explore the city so independently. Some puzzles were unclear, so it was a bit frustrating. Especially since the tips didn't really help. Most of it was cool and varied.
