Exploring Valencia Through a Different Lens

Valencia is a city bursting with sights, sounds, and stories. While many travelers stick to the main attractions like the Cathedral or the City of Arts and Sciences, this virtual city quest offers a fresh way to experience the city’s less obvious corners. The experience is designed to be both educational and fun, perfect for those who want to engage actively rather than passively sightseeing.

The core idea is simple: you get a virtual guide—a digital companion that not only guides you but also keeps the game on track, sends you riddles, and provides hints. The game covers the old city, including historical sites, hidden secrets, and interesting facts. It’s a kind of treasure hunt that transforms your wanderings into an interactive challenge.

One of the biggest advantages is the cost-effectiveness. For just $16, your group gets access to an adventure that could easily be a highlight of your trip, especially if you’re traveling with friends or family. Considering the price, you’re getting a personalized experience that combines walking, problem-solving, and discovery, all in one.

What to Expect During the Quest

Once you get your code—after sending your ticket number via WhatsApp or Telegram—the journey begins. The process is straightforward: connect to the provided link, and the virtual guide kicks off the adventure. You’ll need at least one charged phone with internet per team, which is something to keep in mind, especially if you’re traveling with a larger group.

The route is designed to be flexible—start whenever it suits you within the three-day window. The tasks include logical riddles and interesting facts about Valencia, making it both entertaining and educational. The experience is quite interactive—your virtual guide will communicate with you, send clues, and check your answers, maintaining a lively pace.

The hidden corners and interesting places are carefully selected to give you insights into the city’s history and secrets. This is a great way to discover parts of Valencia you might miss on a traditional tour or when wandering aimlessly. As one user review noted, “It’s a fun way to learn about Valencia’s history while feeling like you’re playing a game,” which perfectly captures the essence.

The Route and Its Highlights

While specific stops aren’t detailed, the experience promises to take you through the old city of Valencia, with highlights being the less touristy, more authentic spots that often go unnoticed. You’ll encounter logical riddles that challenge your problem-solving skills, keeping everyone engaged. These riddles are complemented by interesting facts that add context and depth to your exploration.

The inclusion of hidden corners is a real plus—this isn’t just about ticking off major sights but about uncovering secrets and stories that make the city special. For example, you might stumble upon a quiet courtyard, a historical plaque, or a quirky local spot that isn’t on the typical tourist path.

Participants have mentioned that the virtual person guiding the game is engaging and keeps the game flowing smoothly, providing hints and explanations that help you solve riddles without frustration. This kind of support is crucial for those who might feel less confident in their navigation or puzzle-solving skills.

Group Size, Cost, and Practicalities

The experience is tailored to small groups of up to five people, which makes it perfect for friends, couples, or small families. Larger groups should split into multiple teams to keep the game fun and competitive. The price is quite reasonable, especially considering you’re paying for a personalized, game-like experience rather than a typical tour.

Since it’s a “reserve now, pay later” activity, you have the flexibility to secure your spot without immediate payment—helpful if your plans are still flexible. When it comes to cancellation, you can do so up to 24 hours in advance for a full refund, which adds peace of mind.

Remember to bring along a charged smartphone—without it, you’ll be hard-pressed to participate. Also, the experience is wheelchair accessible, making it a more inclusive activity.

Some reviews note that the tasks are logical and interesting, and the hints provided help keep the game accessible. It’s also appreciated that the route covers interesting facts about Valencia, giving a bit of educational value along the way.

The main drawback, as some users point out, is the reliance on technology—if your phone battery is low or your signal drops, it could affect your experience.

Who Is This Tour Best For?

This quest is perfect for travelers who enjoy interactive, puzzle-based experiences. It’s well-suited for groups that are comfortable with using their phones and enjoy a bit of friendly competition. It’s also a great choice for those wanting a more personalized exploration without the crowds or rigid schedules of conventional tours.

If you’re traveling with kids or family, it could also work well—especially if everyone likes riddles and problem-solving—though you’d want to gauge whether the difficulty level matches your group’s age and interest.

It’s not ideal for travelers who prefer guided commentary or want to visit specific, well-known landmarks with detailed explanations, as this is more about discovering hidden gems and solving puzzles.
