Download the Questo app and start your city game at the Monument aux Girondins. It will take about one to two hours to complete, and you can explore at your own pace: pause the game and resume it at any time from where you left off. Each clue will lead from one location to the next, providing directions without a map, GPS, or guide. The secret story of that location gets revealed as you solve the problem and guess the answer. You will end the game at Bordeaux's Big Bell.
