FAQs

When and where do we start?

Each hunt has specific opening hours, but we strive to make them available every day of the week, all day long – so you can simply start when you’re ready to!

The start point depends on the itinerary you select: we usually privilege central but quieter back streets.

Once you book your tickets, you’ll be sent all the details!

Our urban adventures are a mix between an outdoor escape game, a treasure hunt and a walking tour: you get to play a part in a historically themed story, interact with real life characters and most of all, we make sure to lead you to beautiful spots a little outside the usual tourist paths.

You’ll see plenty of the city: from secret courtyards to monuments, but also local eateries, interesting businesses and beautiful boutiques.

It’s super simple: all you need is a charged phone and a functioning WhatsApp number with a data plan. We will send you instructions directly on WhatsApp.

We do not keep your phone number and cannot initiate contact with you unless you choose to message us first.

That’s up to you: you can take anything from 1.5 hours to the whole day to ‘complete’ the hunts. You’re always free to linger, deviate or skip stops.

You can play in English or Italian: we recommend you have a good level of fluency in order to appreciate the language nuances of some of the riddles.

Yes, but we recommend children are aged 7+ and supervised by adults.

Our riddles, clues and instructions don’t require any particular experience or knowledge.

Finally, whilst the effective length of each hunt is short of 2 miles and breaks can be factored in at any point, we recommend not bringing children who are not comfortable with walking such distances.

We price per individual as part of what makes Invisible Streets’s adventures so much better than a regular treasure hunt is that it includes curated treats and prizes for each player: you wouldn’t want one of you to go empty handed!

Our treasure hunts are designed with school trips and students of all ages in mind.

We do not advertise alcohol and do not stop at any night life venue.

The adventures are meant to be enjoyed in teams, which enables students to bond and engage.

Please visit our “Schools” page for more information.

Our treasure hunts are designed with team-building and corporations in mind.

The adventures are meant to be enjoyed in multiple teams, fostering collaboration and an element of competition.

This was a fun way to see the city and some of the not so well known places. The starting point was somewhere we absolutely loved visiting and would never have known about without doing this . The ending point was a highlight and the whole thing was fun and the clues were well thought out. I would thoroughly recommend this.

An engaging and creative tour through the streets of Florence! A very original and unique way to experience the city, from the touristy classics like the duomo and ponte vecchio to more niche and hidden-gem locations.Creative and fun puzzles are littered throughout a simple but compelling story that immerses you in renaissance politics (and even teaches some history for good measure!). Would strongly recommend to anyone looking to explore the streets and have fun at the same time!

This was an absolute highlight of our Florence stay! The clues are filled with so much personality and we explored places we never would have found otherwise. Each spot was so great and incredibly unexpected in their beauty! We were blown away by stop one and even passed places that we then went back to visit the next day. We could’ve stopped at the time, but we were having too much fun! The perfect mix of mystery, drink stops and eateries, as well as solutions if we ever got stuck or lost. We didn’t find a few of the clues, but even so we were directed to our next steps and the process was seamless. My husband and I highly recommend this to anyone looking to explore some lesser known areas of Florence, and seeing the beauty that Florence has to offer. While we were here for 4 days, this remained our favourite for so many reasons! Even if you just want to orient yourself for other hotspots, this was just delight after delight at every turn. We will be telling all our friends and family to complete this on their stay!
