“Decode Zagreb”

Zagreb has followed the lead of a number of other global tourist destinations. It has recently created its own tourist adventure game under the name – Decode Zagreb.

The Decode Zagreb program has been designed as a city adventure which enables those who follow it to discover the city on their own. The participants read the instructions in the “Decode Zagreb” pack and follow them from one secret code and sign to another as they discover the city in an interesting, unusual and fun way. Thus, they become the principal heroes in this game in which their mission is to solve this Da Vinci Code-type tourist mystery. 

The program provides its users with most of the information they would typically receive during a conventional city sightseeing tour, but in a different, rather quirky way. Based on their own engagement and effort, every participant has to follow a set of instructions which requires interacting with the locals, wandering around and studying the city streets, squares and terraces, reading graffiti and visiting a number of selected city locations such as cafes, museums, shops which stock authentic goods, and so on. The whole program is designed to leave a stronger impression and perception of the city and inspire the more entrepreneurial visitors to become immersed in the city’s life.

The Decode Zagreb program is intended primarily for organized groups of tourists, but it is easily adapted to every end user’s needs and goals. It has been proven as an excellent tourist product for different market segments – from team building programs and incentive travel to entertainment and educational school programs. So far, several city tours have been conducted in this way and those who have partaken in them have returned extremely satisfied. It should be noted that apart from Zagreb’s guests, the tour’s participants have also included citizens of Zagreb who have gained an entirely different insight into their hometown having experienced it from a different perspective.

Still in the pipeline is a special tourist guide intended for individuals, families, and smaller groups of tourists who are looking for more than just a conventional city sightseeing tour. It will be another quest game under the same name, Decode Zagreb. Its humorous, intriguing and original approach to the conventional sightseeing tour will surely make an impact on those who take it.
