Secrets of Marbella Self-Guided Scavenger Hunt & Walking Tour

Secrets of Marbella begins on the Plaza de los Naranjos and turns the old town into a self-guided walking tour. From the orange trees on that square the route sends you through narrow whitewashed lanes and out to the smaller plazas around it. Every question you solve leaves you knowing a little more about Marbella. Along the way it plays like a scavenger hunt through Marbella, with something to find at every stop.

The game suits friends, couples, families and colleagues who like walking with something to work out. One ticket covers a team of one to four people sharing a phone, and larger groups buy extra tickets and split into teams. Playing alone is fine. There is no guide and no fixed start time, so you can set out early or wait until the coast cools down in the evening.

How to play

Starting the route on the Plaza de los Naranjos is easy:

1. Book the Exploration Game
2. Check the instructions email
3. Download the Loquiz app
4. Start playing whenever you like

Expect riddles, observation questions and photo tasks that only work once you stand in front of the right thing. You look at doorways, tiles, balconies and worn stonework, and the game adds facts and stories about the people who built this quarter and how the town grew from a small settlement into what it is now.

With several teams out at the same time the walk becomes a contest: every answer scores points and the leaderboard shows the standings. Companies use it for team outings and it works just as well for a family afternoon. Stop for a break whenever you like and continue after, ending back in the old centre of Marbella.
