A French king got married here in 1660 and immediately had the church door bricked up — this town has been surprising people ever since.

This app-led scavenger hunt takes you through Saint-Jean-de-Luz's old quarter on foot, using phone-based riddles to guide you from one landmark to the next. No guide, no fixed start time.

• Follow clues to the Maison Louis XIV, Église Saint-Jean-Baptiste, and Promenade Jacques Thibaud — three landmarks that pack more history than the town's size suggests • Start whenever suits you and take all the time you need — no time limit, no pressure • Works for families, couples, and friend groups; photo challenges along the seafront add a fun competitive edge

Available in 24 languages including English, French, German, Spanish, Italian — see the full list when booking and choose yours when you start the game in the app. Around 2 hours - any group size.

The royal wedding door is still bricked shut — your phone knows why.

What you'll do

Starting at the Office de Tourisme on Boulevard Victor Hugo, enter your 6-digit
game code that you received by text and Viator chat message into the free Explorial app and begin a self-guided trail through one of the Basque coast's most charming towns. At the Maison Louis XIV, the timber-framed merchant house where the Sun King stayed before his royal wedding in 1660, you'll tackle challenges about the historic treaty that ended decades of war between France and Spain. The trail continues to the Église Saint-Jean-Baptiste, the largest Basque church in France and the very building where the royal marriage took place — challenges here explore its unique wooden galleries and the door bricked up after the royal couple left. At the Promenade Jacques Thibaud along the seafront, you'll answer questions about the bay, the tuna fishing heritage, and the town's famous sea wall. The whole trail takes around two hours at a comfortable pace, with no guide and no fixed start time.
