Description
On this interactive treasure hunt in Geneva, you can explore the historical old town using an app on your smartphone while solving exciting and informative puzzles and tasks.
You and your group can spontaneously go on a puzzle adventure, as the start time is entirely up to you. All you need is a ticket per person for the interactive game and a smartphone with the corresponding app. The app will guide you through an adventure featuring interesting information about the city, fun tasks, and tricky puzzles.
The treasure hunt lasts about 1.5 to 2 hours and starts at the Rotonde. Along the way, you’ll discover many sights in Geneva, including Ile Rousseau, the Saint-Pierre Cathedral, and the Reformation Wall. The tour ultimately ends at the Reformation Wall.

Swiss Activity Tip
The city of Geneva is located right by Lake Geneva. Treat yourself to a little break on your trip and spend some relaxing hours by the lakeside, or take a boat tour.
Info for school classes
- A school class can have a maximum of 25 people (students and adult supervisors).
- It’s advisable to split the class into several teams. Ideally, each team should have a maximum of 8 people.
- After booking, you'll receive a code for the game. This code can be redeemed by all participants, so a maximum of 25 times. By that time, it should already be clear which students belong to which team.
- One person from the team will then click the button "Create Team" and give the team a name. The team members click "Join Team" and join using the team name.
- The teams should start with a time gap of about 2-3 minutes to prevent them from following each other easily.
- Generally, everyone plays on their own smartphone. By answering the questions on their own phones, participants can compete against each other and see a ranking of all players, making it even more fun.
- If not every child in a class has access to an internet-enabled smartphone, the game can still be played. Those children can play on another child’s phone. Each team should have the same number of smartphones. Every team needs at least one smartphone.
