The group heads into the old town in teams, with a series of challenges and questions about what they come across: the Dom, the wharf cellars and the Oudegracht. On foot, at your own pace, with a fixed start and finish. We provide the challenges and are there at the start and the finish.

A City Challenge is a city game: the group heads into the old town in teams, with challenges and questions about what they come across along the way. The Dom, the wharf cellars and the Oudegracht all feature. On foot, at your own pace.
It is not an escape room and not a guided tour. You find your own way; we provide the challenges and are there at the start and the finish to go through the results. The start is at Paardenveld, the finish at the Neude square.
