Wir hatten einen schönen und abwechslungsreichen Spaziergang durch die Stadt. Gewünscht hätten wir uns, dass die informativen Texte optional auch als Sprachaufnahme abspielbar sind, Ein paar (vor allem Bilder-)Rätsel waren teilweise unklar oder die Fotos undeutlich / schlechte Auflösung. Bei der letzten Aufgabe hat sich die App nicht mehr mit dem Internet verbunden und wir mussten leider die Tour abbrechen. Insgesamt dennoch lustig und ein schönes Spiel.

Het was leuk om eens op een andere manier een stad te ontdekken. De uitleg om te starten met de wandeling was niet duidelijk. We hebben de e-mail meerdere keren moeten lezen vooraleer we door hadden welke app we nu eigenlijk nodig hadden om de speurtocht te starten. Eens gestart, was het plezant. We hadden gekozen om alles in 1 team te doen, maar toch werden we niet allemaal naar hetzelfde volgende hoogtepunt gestuurd. Dat gaf wat verwarring tot we doorhadden dat we dat konden aanpassen. Los van deze 2 ´moeilijkheden´ hebben we een toffe speurtocht in een mooie stad gehad!

Die Highlights-Schnitzeljagd und der damit verbundene Stadtrundgang haben uns sehr gut gefallen. Man bekommt eine gute Übersicht über die schönen Highlights von Antwerpen und läuft nicht ziellos durch die Stadt. Wir waren für einen spontanen Tagestrip in Antwerpen und mussten uns somit vorab nicht viel mit der Stadt auseinandersetzen.

Coole Tour mit interessanten Infos über die Stadt Antwerpen. Alles spielt sich im Zentrum ab, sodass man jederzeit seine Tour für einen Snack oder Kaffee unterbrechen kann. Wir hatten dadurch einen lehrreichen und unterhaltsamen Tag in Antwerpen und empfehlen die Aktivität auf jeden Fall weiter.
