Bristol Waterfront: Brunel to Banksy Self-Guided Puzzle Walk
Overview
A magical camera that reveals Bristol's hidden past. This self-guided puzzle walk takes you along the stunning waterfront, where every photo unlocks a piece of history you never knew existed.
Start at Clifton Suspension Bridge, where Brunel's genius towers above the Avon Gorge. Discover the clifftop railway that became the BBC's secret WWII studio, wind through Georgian crescents, and find Banksy's Girl with the Pierced Eardrum.
Solve puzzles at the SS Great Britain, explore Brunel's Victorian dockyard, and spot wildlife in a hidden nature reserve. Each stop weaves engineering, art, and rebellion across 200 years of Bristol history.
End at Llandoger Trow, Bristol's oldest pub and the real inspiration for Treasure Island. With 14 stops across 2-3 hours, this is the waterfront's most complete story, told through puzzles and a time-bending mystery.
Download the Questo app, start whenever you like, and explore Bristol's waterfront at your own pace.
