Great to motivate children for the visit - Great idea to make the visit of the Palace a great and fun experience for the children, that way they get interested in the history of the place. 1 place of the hunt was closed for renovation, but ut didn't affect much the game. I would recommend it 😉

Great treasure hunt - I recommend this treasure hunt if u wish to explore Heraklion and Knossos at your own pace. The app is friendly and I learned a couple of things while playing with it. It also has a feature to hear the guide on speaker so don`t have to read while walking.

Not great - No one knows about this treasure hunt and tour among the staff, and it wasn't well explained. I finally got to download the app to use for the hunt. It wasn't that great even though my son enjoyed solving 2/3 riddles. Some useful information provided. Not worth the price.
