Walking Tour
Tour Overview
This is a self-guided exploration game crafted by a passionate local storyteller and played through the medieval quarter of Sibiu.

At each location, you'll solve a challenge and receive instructions for the next chapter.

Customer Reviews
Je préfère les visites guidées gratuites, mais je trouve que c'est une super alternative pour découvrir la ville. Si vous y allez avec des enfants (qui savent bien lire), ça peut aussi être mieux qu'une visite guidée.
On a eu un peu de mal à accéder à l'application, mais une fois dedans, c'était divertissant et amusant. Je ne peux pas évaluer le guide car il n'y en avait pas.
Je n'en attendais pas grand-chose, mais cette activité m'a vraiment surpris ! Très sympa, elle vous emmène dans les lieux emblématiques de la ville tout en vous racontant son histoire.
