An ideal outdoor activity for first time visitors, couples, groups, families, and children. Can be used as a great team-building activity.

After downloading the scavenger hunt tour on your mobile device (via a link and login credentials received upon booking), use the mobile app and integrated maps to reach 10 of Venice’s most important attractions on foot.

Head next to the bustling Piazza San Marco, the largest and most famous square in Venice. Admire San Marco Basilica with its ornate mosaics. Admire the Pallazo Ducale Palace, the symbol of Venice.

Visit the miraculous San Zaccaria Church and the Chiesa di San Giorgio dei Greci with its characteristic leaning tower, ornate interior, and walls with gilded portraits.

At each stop, learn about the attraction and solve a location-based riddle that can only be solved if you reach the specific location. Use logic, imagination, observation, and team spirit to unlock the correct code and reveal the next destination of the tour.

A good way to explore Venice in your own time while also learning about the sights and history. Once you start the hunt you can pause and come back to it at any point. Once completed you still have access to the text so you can reread if like me you were far too invested in getting to the next puzzle.
