Even Yorkies love it!
Review of: Private Self-Guided Treasure Hunt around York - Gardens and Guildhalls
We're a York firm who decided to do this treasure hunt as a team building exercise. All 20 of us had a great time, even though most of us knew York well. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone. Some clues were easier than others, which was great (and some were pretty hard!). It's meant to be fun and not a race but, we're a competitive bunch, and so we went fairly quickly. We would have enjoyed it even more if we'd taken our time and taken breaks, as is recommended. We had no technical issues and were given a number to call if there were. Really well organised. Great value for money as you'll visit hidden parts of the City you wouldn't normally venture into. Thanks Paul and Ian…

Review of: Private Self-Guided Treasure Hunt around York - Gardens and Guildhalls
My son and I visited York. Been a few times before. But doing this treasure hunt opened up a load of new places. Mainly all the small alleyway streets that run across the city. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for something different to do whilst visiting the city

Review of: Private Self-Guided Treasure Hunt around York - Gardens and Guildhalls
Great way to see parts of York we otherwise wouldn't have seen - snickers and details. Really liked how we could each see the clues on our phones.

Well planned tour of the city.
Review of: Private Self-Guided Treasure Hunt around York - Gardens and Guildhalls
Challenging but not difficult, great way to see the inner city and explore areas you maybe wouldn't venture into. If you've played escape rooms, this is a similar experience. Well thought out and planned. We had exceptional weather, but plenty of places to stop and take cover if the weather isn't so good.…

Review of: Private Self-Guided Treasure Hunt around York - Gardens and Guildhalls
Had a great day with the treasure hunt, we did get lost but that was part of the fun. We were playing against another team and worked well.
