Leipzig Self-Guided City Walking Tour & Scavenger Hunt

About this activity

Leipzig gave the world Bach, the peaceful revolution of 1989, and some of Europe's finest civic architecture — all within walking distance.

This app-led scavenger hunt takes you through Leipzig on foot, using phone-based riddles to guide you from one landmark to the next. No guide, no fixed start time.

• Solve riddles at the Thomaskirche, the grand Augustplatz, and the Rathausbrunnen — music, politics, and Baroque grandeur in one afternoon

• Go at your own pace through a city that rewards close attention

• Suits music lovers, history fans, families, and curious visitors

Available in 24 languages including English, French, German, Spanish, Italian — see the full list when booking and choose yours when you start the game in the app.

Around 2 hours - any group size.

Bach is buried here. The least you can do is visit.
