SIGHTSEEING
REIMAGINED

Why go sightseeing when you can go "sightseeking" instead?

Forget those guided tours (too expensive, too scheduled, too groupy) and those city-tour apps (too boring, too repetitive).

 

On a Sightseeker self-guided "quest" you do much more than just "see" the sights. You come with us on a journey of discovery, digging deep beneath the surface, as compelling stories, full-screen historical images, scavenger-hunt clues, best bites, and optional detours revive the past and bring it vividly to life.

Everything is more fun when it's a game. Clues are peppered throughout each quest so you look closer and see more.

BEST BITES
