Escape The City Monnickendam City Walk With Puzzles

About this activity

Are you planning a day out or weekend trip to Monnickendam, then you can have a lot of fun with this city walk. An Escape game and city walk at the same time. 2,5 kilometres long and over 1,5 - 2 hours of fun for the family or a group of friends. Meanwhile, during this game there is plenty of time to sit on one of the terraces. A city walk has never been so much fun. An app will help you with your quest during the city walk. The Monk of Monnickendam pretends to be a cleric, so many people trust him. And if they are not careful for a moment, he steals from them. Nobody knows where he is now, neither do the police. Many people have seen him, but don't want to talk about it. Unless you help them with their questions.
