"Urban Trails was a great way to explore the city and hit some of Edinburgh's highlights! It's fun and interactive, and manages to throw in a good amount of educational information without ever feeling overwhelming or getting bogged down in the details. I can highly recommend it for a group of friends, as it's pretty entertaining to solve the various puzzles together and theorize what turn the story is going to take next, but it would also be useful for getting your bearings in the city as a solo traveller while having a bit of fun along the way!"

"Super cool! We did the Urban Trail Adventure as a team event in Oxford and it was an excellent experience. Easy to use, check. Team bonding, check. Learned about the city without being educated, check. Loads of fun, check, check. Give it a try, its marvelous. Period."

"Had such a great day out in Oxford exploring the city with my dogs! Urban Trails is such a fun way to gamify sightseeing while getting your steps in. I loved the level of difficulty - the puzzles were challenging enough to make you think, but not so hard that they left you feeling stuck or confused. I could absolutely imagine doing something like this for a hen do and turning it into more of a competition - it would be so much fun! So I’m really excited to see that more cities are coming soon."

"Super fun! Loved all the different puzzle elements. I wasn't sure what to expect as there's not loads of stuff about them online, but it was so worth it. The fact that you can pause and explore at your own pace was appreciated."
