We had a great few hours on this trail, and it was perfect for our 9 year old who enjoyed solving the clues too. The messages were sent immediately via WhatsApp and everything worked really well. We know London really well but it took us to loads of places we’ve never really seen/noticed before. Next time we might try a more challenging one!

This was a fun interactive activity that provided an alternative to guided cut walks. Designed for groups of young and old, it can also be completed individually. Basic historical facts were provided after each clue. 4 star rating only because I would have liked more details about the area. If you're only looking for an interactive group activity for families it'd probably be a 5 star rating.

Excellent experience, well thought out clues and presented in a fun way. We thought the clues were pitched at the correct level, not too easy and made you look very closely at your surroundings, without being impossible to solve. We had a fun day exploring York with a few pit stops for refreshement between clues. Would definitly recommend this as an activity for all the family to enjoy

We had such a blast doing this treasure hunt! We really enjoyed the fun facts and clever riddles, and had so much fun racing around to solve the clues! I'd really recommend this as a great way to see the city, whether you're a tourist or a local!
