  • 5Wonderful way to discover Sibiu

    Great experience! The kids had a lot of fun and all the challenges worked :) I totally recommend! It took us 6h to complete the missions but we stopped and admire the scenery, we had lunch so we did it in our own time :)

  • 2Unfortunately not great for us

    Although it started off with promise, there were errors in the directions to the locations. Once we did find them the information on the location was inadequate to hold our interest. We abandoned the mission after 5 out of 15. Good idea, poor execution.

  • 5Perfect for a relaxing day in the city.

    It was very nice to discover the city in our own pace, being able to stop for coffee and lunch. The places the tour took us, were interedting and beautiful as well as quiet.

  • 5Fun and educational!

    My family of 4 (2'kids) really enjoyed seeing Sibiu through this interactive and educative experience period we actually did this in a few cities in Romania and it was fun and educational in all of them. a great way to explore cities learning about their history while having fun and engaging the children throughout.

  • 5Fun activity for the family

    Although the app was a little quirky and did not let you jump around, it was a fun activity for the family and learn about the Medieval towers of Sibiu.

About Sibiu

Sibiu is a medieval Transylvanian town founded by Saxon settlers, with pastel squares, the Liars' Bridge and the Carpathians rising behind.

Sibiu, called Hermannstadt by the Transylvanian Saxons who settled it in the twelfth century, is one of the best-preserved medieval towns in Romania. The Large Square and the Small Square are joined by pastel townhouses, and many roofs have small attic windows that look like watching eyes. The Liars' Bridge, a small iron footbridge from 1859, stands near the Small Square, and the Brukenthal Museum, in a baroque palace, is the oldest museum in Romania. The Gothic Evangelical Cathedral has a tower with a view over the old town.

Top-ranked sights in Sibiu: Balea Lake (Lacul Balea), Piata Mare (Great Square), Bridge of Lies (Podul Minciunilor).
