App helps treasure hunters to interact with top sites

Children as well as adults could soon be seeing some of the country’s biggest attractions in a new light — as they become the settings for interactive treasure hunts.

A new app developed by a Cork-based start-up allows daytrippers and tourists to enhance visits and holidays at the country’s best known tourist attractions via an interactive app.

Once you’re in the vicinity of any of these sites and have downloaded the free Keyquests app, it will send you details of how to save money on entry fees and how to get details of that site’s particular treasure quest.
