Venice Self-Guided Mystery Quest - Adventure Book & Quest Cards

Receive an adventure book from your host
and start a self-guided quest in Venice

Use a printed adventure book and quest cards as your guide on a self-guided adventure through Venice that takes about 2 hours 30 minutes. You do not follow a guide or a group; you progress through the quest at your own pace. You can take part even when it is not Carnival or festival season.

Receive your quest materials from a local host

Meet a local host in central Venice and receive an adventure book and illustrated quest cards.

The host briefly introduces the concept of the missions and shows you how to solve them, and then you begin the quest.

Solve riddles as you walk around Venice

The adventure book is filled with stories about Venice's history, including the Venetian Republic, merchant traditions, maritime trade, famous explorers, historic palaces, architecture, bridges, canals and mysterious symbols.

At each stage, read the story, observe your surroundings, look for details, solve riddles and complete fun missions.

Walk at your own pace and stop whenever you like

Suggested sights include the Rialto Bridge, the historic merchant district, traditional Venetian streets, picturesque canals and the area around Piazza San Marco; the exact route is set by the quest materials you receive.

You can pause whenever you like for photos, a cup of coffee, shopping or sightseeing.

※ After the introduction, the host does not accompany you; this is a self-guided experience.
※ Admission tickets to museums, palaces and monuments, gondola rides and public transport, meals and drinks, and personal expenses are not included.
