Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Valencia Scavenger Hunt by World City Trail?

The Valencia Scavenger Hunt is a self-guided, interactive walking tour and game with optional AI voice narration that lets you explore the city with your smartphone. You solve clues and unlock locations at your own pace while learning about Valencia’s history and landmarks.

Do I need a guide or a reservation?

No, you don’t need a guide or a scheduled time. The tour is self-guided and available anytime after purchase. You simply activate it through the World City Trail app when you’re ready to start.

How long does the Scavenger Hunt take?

Most players complete the experience in 2 to 3 hours, but there’s no time limit. You can pause and resume anytime.

Is it suitable for families or kids?

Yes, the tour is family-friendly and designed for players of all ages. It’s ideal for couples, companies, families, groups of friends, or solo travelers.

What languages is the game available in?

The Valencia Scavenger Hunt is available in English, German, French, Italian, Spanish, and Dutch. You can choose your preferred language directly in the World City Trail app.

How do I access the tour after booking?

After booking, download the World City Trail app from the App Store or Google Play. Use the booking reference we send you by email to unlock your tour in the app.

How many people can play with one purchase?

Buy one ticket per player, all in one purchase. We recommend teams of up to 5 players. Larger groups can split into several teams. Everyone can follow the game on their own phone.

What do I need to bring for the game?

Just a charged smartphone with internet access (mobile data and not Wi-Fi) and comfortable walking shoes. No printed materials are needed.

Does my booking support a cause?

Yes. Every purchase helps support stray cats and dogs in Greece by funding food, water, and medical care in cooperation with various local organizations.

Is this a guided tour or a game?

Think of it as the best of both worlds. It’s a scavenger hunt that acts as your personal tour guide. You get the high-quality insights of an optional voice narration mixed with the interactive fun of a city-wide challenge. You are the guide—you lead the way using our mobile app, making the decisions on when to explore and when to take a break for some fresh horchata or fartons.

Do I need to be a history buff to enjoy this?

Not at all! While we love a good story about the Holy Grail and the legendary silk trade, we focus on making history relatable, witty, and fun. If you like vibrant markets, sun-soaked plazas, and a bit of a mental challenge, you’re in exactly the right place.

Do I need mobile data on my phone?

Yes, we recommend having a reliable data plan. Valencia is a high-tech coastal city, but signal strength can fluctuate when you are deep within the massive stone halls of La Lonja or exploring the intricate corridors of the Mercado Central. For the smoothest experience with our GPS navigation and audio narrations, a 4G/5G connection is your best friend.

What if my group gets stuck on a riddle?

Don’t worry, we won’t leave you stranded at the arena! The interface includes a built-in hint system to help you get back on track. It’s designed to be challenging enough to feel rewarding, but intuitive enough to ensure you keep moving and enjoying your walk through this radiant Spanish city.

Can we play this as a competition?

Absolutely. While you can work together as one team, larger groups often split into smaller units to see who can solve the mysteries of Valencia the fastest. It’s a fantastic way to add a competitive “Play” element to your sightseeing—winner gets to pick the best spot for an evening of tapas in the Barrio del Carmen!
