Silves Self-Guided City Walking Tour & Scavenger Hunt
Description
Silves was once the Moorish capital of the Algarve — the castle walls still remember it. This app-led scavenger hunt takes you through Silves on foot, following phone-based riddles that lead from one historic landmark to the next. No guide, no fixed start time. • Follow clues to the Pelourinho de Silves, the Igreja da Misericórdia de Silves, and the red sandstone Castelo de Silves — each one layered with centuries of Moorish and Portuguese history • Fully self-paced with no time limit — take a break at a cafe along the cobbled streets whenever you like • Fun for families, couples, and friend groups; photo challenges guarantee some lively debate Available in 24 languages including English, French, German, Spanish, Italian — see the full list when booking and choose yours when you start the game in the app. Around 2 hours - any group size. Silves has been surprising visitors since the Moors built their capital here — the trail gives you a reason to look properly.

No time limit, a festive route, things to learn while having fun, a good family activity
Merci beaucoup pour ce super feedback ! J'espère vous revoir bientôt dans une autre ville. Salutations de toute l'équipe Explorial
Fantastic value, just the right amount of information and distance, had walked past one place of interest 3 times the day before without knowing it was there. Would 100% do another in another area, thank you
Thank you so much for your review! We hope to see you playing Explorial again soon in other cities. 😊
