It was a wonderful...

Yifan_W, Apr 2024

It was a wonderful experience. We both enjoyed sightseeing in a different way with more interactive activities. By the way, I strongly recommend it to the couples. It’s a good chance to know each other better.

Response from Host, Apr 2024

Thank you so much for the review... could we welcome your suggestion and propose ourselves as a therapeutic setting for couples? Thanks again

Fun challenge that fell flat

Lauren_B, Mar 2024

My family really enjoyed this initially. A fun adventure for my 11 and 13 year old boys who may have gotten bored in the park otherwise. It’s definitely a commitment so be prepared to spend up to 3 hours. We were disappointed by the end. 2 of the stations were no longer accessible and the last 2 took us far away from the Borghese Gardens to a random and unattractive part of town. There was no prize or finale which was a let down after all that time and challenge.

Response from Host, Apr 2024

Hi, first of all we apologize for the delay in responding to your review. We are very sorry that in some way our activity was disappointing for you, at least in the last part... undoubtedly for kids of your children's age a 3-hour journey is tiring but this is clear at the time of booking. As for one of the two stages, which you say is not accessible, we had warned you of its temporary unavailability... the other was, if I remember correctly, the Tiber embankment which was inaccessible due to the rain. As for the finale, you should have received a souvenir photo of your experience taken at check in, as long as you checked in exactly at the point indicated in the confirmation email. However, we renew our regret for not having satisfied you completely!

Fun experience!

Agata_D, Aug 2023

We visit as a family with two children 12 and 13 years old. The experience was excellent and we really enjoyed it, even though we didn't manage to complete it (after 3 hours) cause it was raining on and off the whole time.

Great fun!

emily_w, May 2022

Lovely view off the balcony, nice to explore the gardens. You get a lot of steps in exploring which is great.

Response from Host, Jun 2022

Thank you so much Emily, we are happy that our activity allowed to you to exploring a part of the Rome in different way. Come back to play with us to Trastevere Revolution.

Somethings to improve

Nikolay_A, Apr 2022

It is definitely an interesting way to explore, but there is definitely a lot to improve. When we came to the clue that was supposed to be found by boat, we asked the guy that was getting people in the boats what should we do, he told us to wait on the line in front the cashier, so we did for about 15-20 minutes, and after that the cashier showed us a green pipe and told us to fill it with water and see the animal and we did, and came back to him and he told us “ok bye”. Turns out that the boat ride is not nearly guaranteed when they are busy. So that was quite disappointing. There definitely should be some kind of compensation when people are not getting one of the reasons they booked this game with you and not someone else. Also the clues are not as clear as they should be, as the park is really big, and if you don’t quite get what you are looking for, you can spend a lot of time just wondering through.

Response from Host, Apr 2022

Hi Nikolay thanks for your feedback first of all ! I am sorry that your experience was not as good as expected . From your words we understand that unfortunately you have not been reading carefully the trail document …if you would than you should have red that the trip on the boat is conditioned to the availability of the boats and in fact an alternative hint is provided in the case that the boat cannot be accessed ..concerning the difficulty level this is of course subjective and after running the trail from around 7000 people we think to have reached a right balance but of course it can happen that for someone is too easy or too difficult …for this reason we proactively contact all our guest before the trail offering our help during the experience in order to avoid complex situation and so we did also in your case as soon as you contacted us ..however full respect for your final feedback that we accept and will use to improve . Thanks !

Nice way to spend a few hours in the park

Shannon_G, Aug 2021

This was a great way to go around the Villa Borghese and keep a couple of teenage boys entertained for a couple of hours. It's a ton of walking and took us about 3 hours, which was a little too long for us. Also some of the clues were not as specific as we would have liked. But all in all- would recommend.

Begin of the game was difficult so we cancel after 45 mins

Arnauld_J, Aug 2021

The begin of the game was difficult: the informations were in the documentation, but not easily visible. And need to connect to a website by phone with registration number; by the term "meeting point" we thunk that a person will give us instructions in paper format.. So we waited before we've seen the mailbox (green on green).. THE PROCESS COULD BE SIMPLIER: an SMS with a clear message to enter the code (directly given in SMS !) on a digicode on a green mailbox at the meeting point.. With support we began 25 minutes after the hour, and in a bas mindset.. we cancel the game at 45 minutes. A man ask us moner for the boat; it's indicated but when you pay for 4 people, all must be included.. discussion, loss of time... not funny with a temperature of 36° in august in Roma..

Response from Host, Aug 2021

Dear Arnauld we are very sorry that your experience was so negative . On the other side allow us to say that if you play a game like this and you are not even reading the instruction received in multiple mails there is little that we can do to make your experience positive . In addition you decided to leave to experience after only 3 stations so overall you have very little knowledge of what it is overall but nevertheless you decided to leave us a 1 star review on the base of a lack of comprehension from your side (the same instruction have been provided so far to around 2000 people and everyone manage to do what was required ). Again we are sorry for your bad experience but in all honesty we do not take any responsibility for that . Good luck with your visit in Rome

Bellissima esperienza

Grazie Tatiana, obiettivo raggiunto! Ci fa un grande piacere offrire un po' di divertimento senza perdere di vista il bello!

Eher für Kinder unter 12

Leonie_B, Sep 2021

Teilweise waren leider schon viel zu viele Hinweise im Text, wodurch es nicht schwer war, die Rätsel zu lösen. Die Kooperationspartner wirkten sehr lustlos und haben die Lösungen direkt verraten ohne, dass wir danach fragten. Eine der Aufgaben war unserer Meinung nach nicht lösbar. Wir würden es eher für 10-12 jährige Kinder empfehlen und nicht für Erwachsene.
