Malaga, Spain

3 to 5 hours (approximately)
Offered in: English and 1 more

This self-guided city game offers a different way to explore Málaga's historic centre. Instead of following a guide or joining a group tour, you’ll discover the city through clues, challenges and local stories on your phone.

Combining sightseeing, culture and light puzzle-solving, the experience takes you through hidden corners, historic streets, local landmarks and authentic places many visitors miss. Along the way, you’ll uncover Málaga's history, traditions, coffee culture, local gastronomy and everyday life.

Unlike a traditional walking tour, the route remains part of the mystery. Unlike an escape room, there is no time pressure or complex puzzles.

Explore freely, stop whenever you wish, enjoy a drink, take photos or spend more time in the places that catch your attention.

Perfect for couples, friends, solo travellers and independent explorers looking for a fun, flexible and interactive alternative to conventional sightseeing tours in Málaga.

What's Included

Digital access to the self-guided city game, clues, challenges, written guide and audio content.
