1.e-Scavenger hunt Maastricht: Explore the city at your own pace

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 110 reviews · 3 hours (approx.) · from $37Our pick

GPS-led e-scavenger hunt in Maastricht. Solve riddles on your phone, start anytime, and walk key landmarks in 3 hours.

“Het spel bestaat uit een quiz van +- 15 vragen. Sommige antwoorden moest je ter plekke zoeken wat wel leuk was maar andere antwoorden moest je 'weten' zodat er niets interactief aan was. Jammer, we hadden verwacht om puzzels en raadsels op te lossen tijdens verkenning van de stad waarbij je de stad zelf nodig had maar dat was niet het geval.”

We did the tour in the evening, which made it slightly more difficult because it was already dark out soon, but that's on us, and we still managed to solve most of the riddles without asking for clues. Would definitely recommend and do again in some other city.”
