Charge your phone fully
The tour runs through an app and uses location-based riddles—bring a power bank if you plan photos or long stops.
Choose low-traction footwear
Streets are mostly cobbled and uneven; stable shoes reduce the risk of slips, especially after rain.
Start early or late afternoon
Beat peak tourist crowds at the Arena and Juliet’s balcony by aiming for early morning or late afternoon slots.
Carry a small local map
GPS can drift in narrow lanes; a paper map or offline map helps if the app loses location temporarily.
Smartphone with the World City Trail app
Required to access the scavenger hunt, riddles, and navigation.
Comfortable walking shoes
Supportive soles and good traction for cobbles and steps.
Portable power bank
Keeps your phone charged for photos, maps, and the app during longer stops.
Light rain jacket
Quick showers are common in spring and fall; a packable jacket keeps you moving.
