How It Works
Each cryptic clue is a series of directions, followed by a question to be answered.
On your route you'll see sights that are mentioned within the clue so you'll know you're on the right path!
The last step of the clue will require you to search for an answer at the end of the directions.

What You Say
The great things our great customers say about us.
We came to York for a few days for my birthday and got recommended to do one of these. I liked the fact it’s independent, we got to see sights of York that we wouldn’t of seen otherwise and stopped off at lovely pubs & small cafe’s along the way. ...
Really fun and interesting few hours on the City Treasure Hunt, will definitely do the West End hunt soon.
Fun and different day out! Clues were hard enough to keep it interesting but not too hard that you get fed up. We did get lost once or twice but it all made sense when we were in the right place. Our only tip is start early as it’s harder to see t...
What a fun way to spend time with your friends or family! Saw loads of things in the City of London that we’ve always missed or never knew about. Lots of little passageways, tons of history and lovely little gardens and ruins to discover! Would ab...
We made it x A thoroughly enjoyable day x
A fabulous way to see the sites of London. Clues were pitched perfectly, enough challenge but not impossible!A great day out!
Thoroughly enjoyed our trail. We saw so much and learnt things we would never found ourselves. The clues were really clear and clever which meant you weren’t ‘lost’ for too long. The assistance provided before doing the trail was excellent too. Th...
So much fun! Really took us around the city to places we’d never think of going!! Took us a good 2 hours !
A good activity to do in York that gets you walking around around town and thinking, as well as stopping in a couple of cool old pubs. Would definitely recommend if you're in York for a few days!
Great trail, genuinely quite hard, much easier after the first pint break!
Really fun and interesting adventure, we saw parts of London we’d never have seen without this trail. The vast majority of the riddles were fun and largely easy to follow, with only a couple being a little too vague to work out without hints. Over...
Amazing game! It was so fun and interesting to see these places from a different angle. We were a team of 5 split into 2 groups (to add a bit of challenge) and each team received the clues, which made it easier to compete against each other. We wi...
Exciting adventure, difficult and creative, mind blowing cues, fun attractions.
We really enjoyed the experience. A wonderful way to discover hidden parts of London.
This was our first ever hunt and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Got lost a few times & it certainly isn’t for anyone with bad knees but what a great way to see parts of Edinburgh we probably wouldn’t have seen otherwise. We took in a few lovely bars ...
