Tarragona Scavenger Hunt and Sights Self-Guided Tour

Uncover the secrets of a Roman city through riddles, clues, and open-air discovery.


The Tarragona scavenger hunt self-guided tour transforms a classic city walk into an interactive challenge where every solved clue brings a new landmark into focus. Designed for curious travelers, the experience blends sightseeing with puzzle-solving across two engaging hours on foot.

Participants navigate Tarragona at their own pace using a smartphone, receiving riddles that guide them from one iconic location to the next. The format rewards observation and curiosity rather than prior knowledge, making it accessible to first-time visitors and returning travelers alike.

Available in English, Spanish, German, and French, the experience is fully autonomous once activated on your device. There is no guide to wait for and no group to keep pace with, giving participants full control over their exploration.
