1. Verona Arena – starting point of Verona Scavenger Hunt
Standing as one of the best-preserved ancient structures of its kind, this colossal Roman amphitheater has dominated the city’s central square for nearly two thousand years. While its pink-tinged marble arches once echoed with the shouts of gladiators, today they provide a world-class stage where the magic of opera comes to life under the open Italian sky.
2. Porta Borsari
Porta Borsari was the main gate from where travelers used to enter the city in ancient Roman times. However, at present, this first century’s gate is serving as a fort with lookout towers. Well, it still has enough left behind.
3. Juliet’s House – Verona Scavenger Hunt
In a country popular for romance, Casa di Giulietta aka Juliet’s House is the place that attracts numerous visitors here. This is the house where Shakespeare’s famous character Juliet was born. It dates back to the 13th century. Inside the house, you can also find the beds and costumes of Juliet and Romeo.

5. Basilica di Santa Anastasia
This is an important Gothic building of Verona. It took 100 years to complete its construction. Still, the exterior façade of this Basilica remained unfinished. The interior of the Basilica has a graceful appearance due to some world-renowned painters’ artwork. Most importantly, the Basilica features about 16 chapels and altars. The bell tower also has 9 pealing at present.
6. Ponte Pietra
Well, Ponte Pietra is a must-visit bridge over the Adige River in Verona. It dates back to 100 BC. However, currently, it is one of the most popular Roman monuments in the city. It has a colorful appearance due to white stones and red bricks used in its construction. Most importantly, the restoration work has also been done using the same materials. The most photographed bridge of Verona Scavenger Hunt.
7. Cattedrale di Santa Maria Matricolare
This is a Roman Catholic Cathedral, also known as Verona Cathedral. However, it is dedicated to the Virgin Mary. It is also the Diocese of Verona’s episcopal seat. The architecture of this cathedral has a Romanesque style. However, it gets modified by multiple renovation inventions later. While the basic plan of its style has remained unchanged.
8. Ponte Della Vittoria
Along the Adigerive you can find the infrastructural work of Ponte Della Vittoria. This was created to celebrate the victory of the First World War. Reinforced concrete has been used in the monumental bridge of Verona covered with a stone that has a similar texture and appearance as of marble. Even more, the bridge has characterized by arches.
Overall, visiting this landmark can let you have some amazing views of the surroundings as well.
9. Piazza delle Erbe
Framed by historic palaces and vibrant frescoed facades, this ancient square stands as the lively soul of the city on the site of a former Roman forum. At its center, the 14th-century Madonna Verona fountain presides over a colorful market where the scent of fresh produce and the shadow of the soaring Lamberti Tower create a quintessential Italian atmosphere.
10. Castelvecchio Bridge – ending point of Verona Scavenger Hunt
This is a beautiful, fortified bridge you can find in Verona over the popular Adige River. This segmental arch bridge was also featuring the largest span of the world at the time of its construction.
However, the construction of this bridge happened between 1354 to 1356 more likely. Well, Cangrande II della Scala created this bridge as a safer route to escape the annexed eponymous castle in the rebellion of the population against his rule.

It was nice to see all the highlights of the town. It had a lott of information about the city that was nice.
Some of the places where not to be seen at the moment (packed in plastic) and some questions where to complex (like the puzzle at Julliets balcony).

Es hat Spaß gemacht! Alles war sehr gut erklärt und man konnte die Rätsel gut lösen! Obwohl versprochen wurde, dass wenn man sich an die Route hält, unnötige Wege vermieden werden, dass war nicht ganz so, man hätte die Route schneller erledigen können! Aber im großen und ganzen eine sehr informative Rally! Macht vorallem mit Kindern Spaß!

Le concept est vraiment sympa, il permet de découvrir la ville et d’en savoir un peu plus à son sujet. Nous avons découverts des monuments qui n’étaient pas prévus au programme initialement ! Énigmes accessibles, faciles, manquant un peu de challenge pour certaines. Ça reste toutefois une expérience familiale 🙂 Je recommande !

Eine super Gelegenheit die Stadt, in unserem Fall Verona, auf eine andere aber sehr interessante Gelegenheit kennenzulernen. Durch die Schnitzeljagd kommt man an Orte, an die man ohne die Tour, nicht hingekommen wäre, abseits vom Massentourismus. Zudem lernt man echt interessante Fakten zur Stadt und deren Geschichte. Wenn man also eine Stadt mit all ihren Plätzen und Bauwerken kennen lernen möchte, auch abseits des Massentourismus, kann man die Tour/App/Schnitzeljagd nur wärmstens empfehlen. Wir werden es in der nächsten Stadt wieder machen

Die Schnitzeljagd war eine super Möglichkeit mit Teenagern (deren Interesse momentan nur auf Chillen liegt) die Stadt zu erkunden. Schön wäre gewesen, wenn die Infotexte zu den einzelnen Orten in der Reihenfolge erst dann kommt, wenn man bereits vor der Sehenswürdigkeit steht. Aber vielleicht lag der Fehler auch bei uns.

Initially a little confusing to work out the app. Was good fun once you get the hang of it. The puzzles are relatively basic, would be good to do with children. Overall not a bad way to see the city sites. Would like to have some more information about the sites and an audio version.

The Scavenger hunt/city tour was excellent. Bit of a rocky start as we felt first clue wasn’t very well explained, however we got the hang of it and it was such a good introduction to a beautiful place with facts about each place, then something you had to find which made you really look at where you were . We could stop when we wanted and then restarted tour. Highly recommend, excellent value for money
