“Overated images. The boat wasnt that was shown in pictures. Delay of an hour. No English guide was provided. Wont recommend”
A self-guided GPS scavenger hunt through Leeuwarden’s museums and churches, built for small groups, low cost, and flexible pacing.
“We made a nice tour of the city. The assignments were okay, but sometimes it wasn't clear how to think of or find the answer, and sometimes the activity or question was quite random and didn't seem to have a clear relationship to the location or city. We liked the assignments best for people interested in historical or random facts, and is less suitable for young people. Many questions were a matter of gambling, which sometimes makes it less fun for competitive participants, especially when there is no way to find or come up with the answer. In the end we enjoyed ourselves with the treasure hunt as an excuse…”
AquaZoo Leeuwarden entry ticket in Friesland for 1 day of penguins, polar bears, Amur tigers, red pandas and seal encounters.
