About this experience
Great Fire of London: Self-Guided City Exploration Game is a walking game in London that follows the route of the 1666 Great Fire through the streets and alleys of the City of London. Using the Questo app on your own device, you navigate roughly 4 kilometres of real locations connected to one of the most significant events in the city's history, solving challenges and uncovering historical facts as you go. The fire broke out on Pudding Lane on 2 September 1666 and burned for four days, destroying over 13,000 houses and 87 parish churches before it was contained. The route takes around two hours to complete, with no time limit, so you can pause, explore, or revisit spots at your own pace. As you walk, the app presents puzzles tied to the actual sites where the fire spread, alongside local myths and lesser-known details that standard London attractions rarely cover. Tickets are valid for the Questo app experience and can be used on any day that suits your schedule, making this a flexible option for independent travellers and those fitting sightseeing around other plans.
