Real GoQuestIRL players on a Lisbon quest

LISBON • OCTOBER 17

Lisbon City of Spies

A Team Adventure Spy Quest

  • Saturday, October 17, 2026
  • 10:00 AM - 12:30 PM
  • Arco do Triunfo da Rua Augusta

Your mission, should you choose to accept it: 2.5 hours. 3-4 stops. One spy story unfolding across Lisbon. Grab your friends, or borrow a few strangers. Your cover story? Sightseeing. Your secret objective? Mischief. You'll solve clues, take on unexpected challenges, work together, and discover that not everyone may be playing for the same side. Less walking. More doing. More talking. More moments you'll still be laughing about afterwards. Come solo, with a friend, or with your whole crew. Just don't assume everyone on your team is playing the same game.

Ticking this is what makes the place free. Rather not be photographed? Leave it unticked and book this departure for €10 instead. Change your mind later by emailing support@goquestirl.com and we will stop using photos of you.

It's Not Really About the Puzzles

Your mission begins at the Arco do Triunfo da Rua Augusta. Everyone shows up and meets at the starting point.

About 30 minutes in, teams form. You are grouped with 2 to 8 players you may have never spoken to before. From that moment, you are a unit. You follow clues through the streets of Lisbon, crack codes together, and take ridiculous photos to build your cover. The awkward part lasts about ninety seconds. After that, you are laughing.

This is not a walking tour. There is no guide talking at you, no history lecture, no flag to follow. Your phone hands you the story and sets you loose. You explore at your own pace, in your own way, with your team. The city is the game board and you are in the middle of it.

What you actually get out of this is simple. A couple of hours doing something a bit silly in the middle of Lisbon with people you would never otherwise have met. You will learn everyone's story without anyone having to ask "so, what do you do?" You will leave with shared jokes, a few photos, and people you would happily see again.

Coming alone? That is the best version. Solo players are matched into teams, which is the whole point of a shared departure. Bring friends if you would rather; you will meet the rest of your team either way.

How it works

01

Meet Your Team

Up to eight strangers, one team. The awkward bit lasts about ninety seconds.

02

Get Your Briefing

Your phone hands you a story and sets you loose. No guide, no clipboard, nobody talking at you.

03

Explore Lisbon

Wander the city together, swapping stories like you've known each other for years.

04

Be a Bit Silly

Take the photo. Do the voice. Everyone's in it together — that's half the fun.

05

Pull It Off Together

Someone will have the idea that cracks it. That feels good when it's yours and better when it isn't.

06

See Where It Goes

The quest ends. Whether the group does is up to you.

Coming Alone Is the Best Version

You don't need to bring anyone. Solo players are matched with other players into an open team of up to 6, which is the whole point of a shared departure: a few hours with people you'd never otherwise have met. Bring friends if you'd rather; you'll meet the rest of your team either way.

One hour before the start we email you how many players have signed up. If nobody else has joined, you choose: play solo (what happens if you do nothing), reschedule for free to a future departure, take a credit for the full amount you paid, or get a refund minus the non-refundable payment processing fee.

You're never left without an option.

Better Than Drinks With Strangers

A bar gives you nothing to do but talk, which is exactly why talking is hard there. In Lisbon you've got somewhere to be, something to figure out, and a few other people with the same problem.

Nobody has to perform. Nobody has to network. You just end up talking, because you're already doing something together.

Who is it for?

  • Locals
  • Newcomers
  • Anyone new in town
  • Travelers
  • Expats
  • Digital nomads
  • People looking to meet new people
  • Friends looking for something different
  • Solo adventurers

You do not need to bring a group.

Frequently asked questions

Can I come alone?

Yes. Solo players are welcome and are normally matched into teams of 2-8.

What if nobody else joins?

One hour before the start we email you how many players have signed up, and you choose: play solo (what happens if you do nothing), reschedule for free to a future departure, take a credit for the full amount you paid, or get a refund minus the non-refundable payment processing fee.

How long is the experience?

Approximately 2.5 hours.

Is this a guided tour?

No. Your phone delivers the story, clues and missions while your team explores the city.

Do I need to know the other players?

No. Teams are made of people who may have never met.

Is this a dating thing?

No — it's a social one. People do meet people, and what happens after the quest is entirely up to them.

What should I bring?

Charged smartphone, mobile data, comfortable walking shoes, water and weather-appropriate clothing.

What language is the quest?

English.

Are food and drinks included?

No.

Is transportation included?

No.

Is this really free?

Yes, if you choose the complimentary option. We have a limited number of free spots for participants who are happy to let us use photos and video from the experience for GoQuestIRL marketing. No posing required, we just capture things naturally. Prefer not to be in photos? You can still join for €10 per person. The experience is exactly the same.

What if I don't want to be in marketing photos?

No problem. Just choose the €10 ticket instead of the complimentary option when you book. You will not appear in any of our marketing photos or videos. Everything else about the experience is identical.

I am coming on my own. Who will I be with?

You are matched with the other people booked onto this departure into an open team of up to 6, and you meet them at the Arco do Triunfo da Rua Augusta at the start. This launch departure is open matchmaking only: everyone booked onto it joins the same shared pool of teams, which is the reason the free spot exists, so a private, booking-only-for-your-own-group option is not offered on this date and time.

Will I be photographed?

We have a limited number of complimentary spots for participants who are happy to let us use photos and video content from the experience for GoQuestIRL marketing. If you're comfortable appearing in photos or videos that may be used on our website and social media, you can choose the complimentary option when registering. No special posing or filming is required. We simply want to capture the experience naturally while everyone is having fun. Complimentary spots are limited.
