Eine andere Art eine Stadt kennenzulernen ohne sich selber Gedanken machen zu m?ssen. Die Tour f?hrt zu allen wichtigen Sehensw?rdigkeiten und gibt Erkl?rungen dazu und nat?rlich R?tsel zum L?sen. Wir waren 1 Team von 10 Personen. Nicht jeder hat am Spiel teilgenommen sodass nicht alle Tickets benutzt wurden. Die App benutzt man um die R?tsel zu l?sen. Google f?hrt den Spieler zu den verschiedenen Punkten. Man springt also sozusagen zwischen 2 Apps hin und her. Das ist ok, aber wir haben das nicht gleich gecheckt. Die Route, die angezeigt wurde, war komischerweise nicht bei jedem Spieler die Gleiche. Also immer aufpassen, den richtigen Weg zu nehmen. Trotzdem coole Erfahrung.

We really enjoyed our visit with the guide. We hadn’t visited the city before, and once we got going, it was a great way to find our way round and see the main sites.. We found the app was a little confusing to use. Didn’t realise we had to download a second app. Luckily I had a good data package to use in the city. The information included was good, plenty for our family, though again navigating the app for some apps was a little frustrating. Overall, value wise was food for a family activity, that can be done at our own pace.

Une mani?re ludique de d?couvrir une ville. En ?tant certain de ne rien oublier. 2 remarques : une r?ponse ( Jeanne d’Arc) devait ?tre ?crite en majuscules pour ?tre accept?e ( trop restrictif). Une autre devant l’op?ra ?tait beaucoup trop compliqu?e. Le but est de d?couvrir des monuments, pas de se prendre la t?te.

L’id?e est int?ressante pour visiter diff?rents points de la ville. Seul regret, il est indiqu? qu’il est n?cessaire de se munir d’un casque pour l’utilisation de l’application alors qu’il n’y aura comme seul son un bruit de victoire lorsque l’on donne la bonne r?ponse. Les diff?rentes explications auraient pu ?tre en vocal au lieu d’un simple texte, ?a aurait ?t? plus agr?able (et surtout moins frustrant de s’?tre ?quip? pour rien). Quelques sites non accessible mais li? ? des travaux dans la ville qui ne sont pas du ressort des cr?ateurs de l’application, les r?ponses sont par ailleurs tr?s simple ? trouver, c’est donc une chasse aux tr?sors plut?t facile.

Leuke wandeling en veel historische info. Sommige monumenten werden wel gerenoveerd en sommige straatjes waren afgesloten waardoor we niet alles konden zien. Wel een leuke manier om de stad op eigen tempo te verkennen.

Het was leuk Reims te ontdekken met deze app. Wel was de middeleeuwse poort niet te bezichtigen ivm groot onderhoud, terwijl deze wel in de route stond. Ook was een van de attracties niet bereikbaar (afgesloten bouwplaats) en stond er een podium over de middeleeuwse opgravingen op het plein heen, waardoor we ook daar niet konden komen.

We hadden er meer van verwacht. De audio gids is niets meer dan een robotstem dat heel hakkelig praat. Je leest het dus beter zelf. Ook lezen de tekstjes niet altijd even vlot. Je ziet dat er letterlijke vertalingen zijn gebeurd. Het is heel droog en puur informatief, weinig verhaal. De rondleiding doorheen de stad lukte wel zeer goed en is handig. Al vinden we 13 euro voor een gps met wat Wikipedia uitleg veel geld.

Nadat ik alles had gedownload, liep alles heel vlot. Reims is een mooie bruisende stad en dankzij deze zoektocht werd het voor mijn kinderen van 8 en 11 jaar ook interessant. Enkele belangrijke toeristische attracties werden onder handen genomen, waardoor we niet alles konden oplossen, maar dat kon de pret niet bederven.
