1 / 6Secrets of Jerez de la Frontera Self-Guided Scavenger Hunt & Walking Tour
About this activity
A GPS-driven self-guided exploration game that transforms Jerez de la Frontera into an interactive puzzle hunt, blending city discovery with challenges that reveal hidden history and local secrets. Perfect for independent travellers who want depth and engagement beyond standard sightseeing.
Secrets of Jerez de la Frontera begins on the Plaza del Arenal and turns the old town into a self-guided walking tour. From the square the route reaches the Catedral de Jerez de la Frontera, the Alcázar with its Torre Octogonal and the Real Iglesia de San Dionisio. Each of those stops comes with a question you answer by looking closely. Along the way it plays like a scavenger hunt through Jerez de la Frontera, with something to find at every stop.
The game fits friends, couples, families and colleagues who would rather walk than sit. One ticket covers a team of one to four people sharing a phone, so larger groups split into teams and buy a ticket for each. Playing on your own is fine as well. There is no guide and no fixed start time, which matters in a town where the afternoon heat decides the schedule.
How to play
Getting started on the Andalusian route is quick:
- Book the Exploration Game
- Check the instructions email
- Download the Loquiz app
- Start playing whenever you like
Tasks range from riddles and observation questions to photo assignments that only work in the right place. Around the Ayuntamiento, the Torre de la Atalaya, the Palacio del Marqués de Bertemati and the church of San Francisco you gather facts and stories about the noble families, the churches and the trade that shaped these streets.
With several teams playing at once the walk becomes a contest: answers score points and the leaderboard shows how you did. Companies use it for team outings and it works just as well for a day with friends. You can pause in the shade and continue later, ending back in the centre of Jerez de la Frontera.
