Overview

Go on a walking tour of Salzburg where you will learn about Mozart and visit some of the city’s most beautiful sights. You will play the role of an aspiring pianist who must solve the mystery of Mozart’s lost opera.This will be a challenging tour as it is the perfect mix between a tour, an outdoor escape game, and a treasure hunt.
Each clue will lead you from one place to another by providing you with exact directions so you won't need a map, GPS, or guide. As you answer the questions, solve the challenge, or guess the answer, the secret story of each place is unlocked.
