About Europe City Break
Europe City Break is the travel-focused sister of Qugato, the self-guided city game company behind our popular City Detective adventures. We design playful, story-driven walks that turn real streets into your gameboard. Perfect for a spontaneous city break or a relaxed afternoon with friends.
Our story
Qugato was born in the Netherlands with a simple idea: sightseeing is better when you’re part of the story. We blend clues, puzzles and local trivia so you don’t just see a city, you solve it. Europe City Break is our next step: a home for travellers who want easy, affordable things to do in Europe’s best city break destinations.
What we create
Our self-guided city games lead you through iconic highlights and hidden corners while a detective-style plot unfolds on your phone.
- Play anytime: start, pause and resume at your own pace.
- Go self-guided: no fixed start times or on-site staff.
- Great for groups: one ticket covers your team (typically up to 6 players).
- Made for tourists: short, walkable routes with photo-worthy stops.
