What to expect
Download the World City Trail app, enter your ticket code, and set off whenever suits you. The scavenger hunt sends you to iconic fountains, churches, and plazas while the app feeds you contextual details through audio or text. Each puzzle directs you to the next spot, revealing local legends and architectural quirks most visitors miss. You'll walk roughly two hours total, but rhythm is yours—linger at a café on Cours Mirabeau, circle back to reread a plaque, or save the final stretch for tomorrow. The app includes GPS so you won't get lost, and insider tips point you toward genuine cafés and neighbourhood shops rather than tourist traps.
