Eight runes, a 600-year-old parrot – and a treasure in the middle of Lake Maggiore

Exit Game Lake Maggiore · The Mazzarditi Treasure
New & unique

The first exit game on the water on Lake Maggiore: you solve puzzles aboard the STRIGA CONSTANZE while castle ruins, islands and hermitages drift past – guided by Beppe, the cheeky parrot of the pirate brothers Mazzarditi. At the end you open the treasure chest together.

What our delighted guests say

Find out why our guests call our boat tour the highlight of their holiday.

«A wonderful boat tour on a unique sailing boat on Lake Maggiore. We got to know the lake from completely different perspectives. It's also worth highlighting that the tour could be rescheduled at short notice due to a spell of bad weather, and we were ultimately able to enjoy the trip in the best weather. The crew was thoroughly likeable and made a great effort. We can only recommend the trip to everyone.»
