Super cool and fun mysterie puzzle

Super cool experience: a great walk, a great storie and mysteries to solve! Only 1 question about the Agnietenkapel couldnt be solved because it was removed and another we had fifficulties to see bc of a scaffold but managed. I really recommend it for all ages! Rachelle

A Fun & Spooky Way to Explore Amsterdam & It's History!

We had such a great time exploring Amsterdam with the Ghost Hunt: Self-Guided Mystery Adventure by Questo! The mix of spooky history and engaging storytelling kept us moving and entertained the whole way. A few of the instructions were a little unclear at certain spots, but they were close enough that we could easily find our way. If I could make any suggestion, it would be to exclude locations that feel inappropriate for a lighthearted ghost story—such as the Anne Frank House. That could just be personal preference, and I was still glad to visit those places, but they didn’t feel like the right fit for the theme. Overall, this was a unique and fun way to see the city from a different perspective. We’ll definitely be using the Questo app for more adventures—maybe even in our own city! Highly recommend for anyone who loves mysteries, history, and a little thrill!

Dull Tour with this app.

Dull tour that we did with friends. The areas are very touristy and not really spooky. So the idea is okay, but the tour and challenges were not the best.

Super cool ghost-themed City Game to visit Amsterdam

Had an amazing time with this City Game. We got to visit Amsterdam on foot (which is the best way), we discovered so many local stories & got to see amazing parts of the city center. The game was really fun & we felt like detectives for a day! Definitely recommend both the app (Questo) and this game in particular (Ghosts of Amsterdam) Can’t wait for my next in Paris!

Operator response

It's really nice to see that you have enjoyed and discovered new things while playing Ghosts of Amsterdam: "The Haunting Stories" City Game. We appreciate your feedback and we hope to see you play your next game with Questo soon!
