Highlights
-
Montee du Gourguillon - Bonjour et bienvenue chez Lyon! Are you ready to enroll in a quest of mysteries and dark secrets? Then, take your croissant and go to the Montée du Gourguillon, a vintage street of the hill of Fourvière that earned its place in the UNESCO Heritage list. This hill road used to be the only link between the Roman city and the riverside districts.
Legends say that in the early 14th century, Pope Clement was crowned in the upper town. Due to some unforeseen circumstances, on his way down, his party was partly buried under a falling wall. The Pope’s crown fell and a sizable diamond was lost… Some people are still looking for it today, but only a true explorer can find it. So, look around you to answer the question and find the diamond!

Explore with a thrill - We did this in early december, our first Questo ever! We started just after 4pm, it got dark quickly and the atmosphere was set for the ghost hunt! We did several walking tours in Lyon, this one was by far the best from the way it was organized around the story line! Only time we had to google something to get the answer was due to darkness and the stone being wet, we couldn't read what kind of memorial it was. We had great fun and recommend it to all our friends visiting Lyon.

Great way to spend an evening in Lyon - My thirteen-year-old son and I used the game to take an evening walking tour of Old Lyon and both had an absolutely great time. Highly recommended!

Fun for family and friends - Played with a group of family and friend (6 people) we split up in teams of two and had a blast! This was not only fun but we got to walk around the city and learn quite some interesting facts. It got a bit competitive but everyone had fun. You should try, it's quite amusing, and an excellent excuse to stay outdoors and discover the city.

Pretty good experience - This experience was a try for us because we searched something to do and we heard there were a quest in Lyon, so let’s do this we thought and we were very happy to tried this adventure because we discovered some new places with my family :) I suggest it to you

Really great game - The game it's really nice because we can discover a known city as a new one and see different things and have different viewpoints than the habitual famous monuments/places.
And it's easy to play with friends with the only one paid ticket for everyone!
I hope to see more in other cities!

. - Nice story flow, a good big plus for the historical anecdotes throughout the game.
It allows you to discover in an original way a part of Lyon where we rarely go.
Downside for the end, which does not take place where one might expect (the basilica) from almost the beginning, but which left us in the middle of the street, and not the calmest in the game.

Awful, Awful, Awful!!!! - I would absolutely not recommend this tour! The app was a fun idea and I expected to get some good stories of the city. The game takes you into the neighborhoods outside the tourist area. We did see things we wouldn’t have seen but we walked uphill the entire way almost and about 2 miles away from the city. The tour takes you through some deserted streets and leaves you in the middle of no where with really bad directions back to where you started. It took us almost as long to get back to where we started as the entire game. Do not waste your money!
