★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 69 reviews · 2 hours (approx.) · from $17Top rated

Start at Via della Scala and follow a Medici-inspired mystery through Florence using your phone and WhatsApp support. Solve family-friendly puzzles in English or Italian, pause when you like, discover lesser-seen corners, and finish with a sweet treat. Plan on about two hours.

“This experience was a lot of fun!! We went to places that we never would have on our own. The “story” was charming and clever. We learned a bit about history. The less than perfect part was that it was a bit too long and there was no way to end without abandoning it. Just as it seems to be ending there’s another clue and then another. If you want closure there is none but to push through. If you’re tired, that’s hard. But I loved the first 3/4s of it!”

Nous ne l'avons pas fini. Le jeu peut être amélioré.”
