About this tour

Rather than follow a guide's commentary, you'll piece together Nantes' character through problem-solving, making discoveries feel like genuine finds rather than tick-box sightseeing. Available in French and English, this format suits those who prefer wandering to being shepherded.

What to expect
You'll download the app before starting and receive your first clue. From there, you're solving puzzles that point toward specific landmarks across Nantes. Each solved riddle reveals the next destination, turning conventional sightseeing into a game. The walking is moderate and covers the city's highlights naturally as part of the hunt. Two hours is enough to complete the route without rushing, though you can take longer if you explore side streets or stop for coffee. The app keeps you on track but leaves room for spontaneous detours.
Good to know
Bring a fully charged phone and comfortable walking shoes. The route covers uneven pavements and isn't suitable for wheelchair users. Those with mobility concerns should check specific route details via the app before committing. Service animals are welcome.
