Good tour guide, very intuitive
Directions to next site were terrible. Ended up giving up and just wandering. Waste of money.

Vielen Dank für das tolle Feedback! Es freut mich sehr, dass Ihnen die wunderschöne Altstadt mit der Stadtmauer und den alten Gebäuden so gut gefallen hat. Schäßburg ist wirklich ein besonderer Ort. Hoffentlich entdecken Sie bald wieder eine neue Stadt mit uns! Thanks, Alex – Founder of Questo
A lovely way to see the picturesque town. The clues were interesting and linked to historical parts of the town. There was a little bit of refurbishment happening which made one of the final clues tricky but we managed to solve it.
Thank you very much for the kind review. We are glad to hear you enjoyed exploring Sighișoara and that the clues connected well with the town’s history. Thank you as well for your patience with the refurbishment work. It is great to hear you were still able to solve the final clue and enjoy the experience overall. We hope to see you on another adventure in the future.
very nice, helps you guide yourself through the city, totally recommend it why should write more than it's actually needed?
Thank you for the wonderful feedback! We’re thrilled you enjoyed exploring Sighisoara with us and appreciate the recommendation. We’d love to guide you on another adventure soon.
Gear easy to see the old city, goes through all the main things to see in the old city in a fun and educative way for the whole family!
Thank you for your kind words! We’re so glad you enjoyed exploring Sighisoara’s old city and its landmarks in a fun and engaging way with the whole family. We hope to see you on another quest soon for more adventures!
Perfect for a day trip în Sighișoara! With friend, family or solo! Just a half day for fun and entertainment! A must stop for travellers!
Thank you for playing and for sharing your review. Happy to have helped you have a fun day in Sighisoara:)
This was a fun, unique, and inexpensive way to enjoy Sighisoara. You get to really enjoy the history of the place and immerse yourself in the architecture. We started shortly after 9am so some of the attractions to see along the way were closed, as were the local shops, although they all were open by the time we finished and needed a sit down with a drink. The tour takes you around the town by way of lots of cobbled hills, so thankfully we had appropriate footwear. Don’t attempt this without walking shoes or sturdy trainers.
Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We’re thrilled to hear you had fun exploring Sighisoara and were able to immerse yourself in its rich history and beautiful architecture. We completely agree that the early start gives you a peaceful experience, although we understand that some attractions and shops being closed can be a bit inconvenient. Glad to hear they were open when you finished, and hopefully, you got a chance to relax and enjoy a well-earned drink! Thanks also for the great tip about appropriate footwear—cobbled hills can be a challenge, but we’re happy to hear you were well-prepared. We hope you made lasting memories in Sighisoara and would love to welcome you on another adventure soon!
Hated this experience. After 5 mins downloaded a free self guided tour that was awesome. Bad interface. Wasn't easy to use. Much rathered a diff product with GPS guiding

Super fun day! The locations we visited were so beautiful - my favourite was Peles. Met lots of great people on the tour and the tour operator, Traian, is fun and very professional. He also helped arrange transport to Sighisoara the next weekend. Recommend!
