Take part in this exciting, five-hour, competitive tour in Los Angeles to combine sightseeing with a scavenger hunt. This interactive experience combines the fun of the television show Amazing Race with the suspense of the Da Vinci Code. Meet up with your teammates at a central location in either Hollywood or Santa Monica (choose when you book), and receive your first set of tricky clues to set off on your own Amazing Race. Like the TV show, each clue will lead you to a new location and a new clue. The team that solves all the clues and crosses the finish line in the least amount of time is crowned the winner! Each departure point offers a different adventure. If you’d like to be near the ocean, choose the Santa Monica departure for an interesting beachside twist and to see some local hidden gems. For city sights, choose the Hollywood experience, where you’ll pass some of the most popular sights in Hollywood and downtown LA, such as Grauman's Chinese Theatre, the Hollywood Walk of Fame and Walt Disney Concert Hall.
Tour departs from Hollywood at 11am.
Tour departs from Santa Monica at 11am.

This ended up being a surprise birthday party arranged by my husband with about 20 of my nearest and dearest (and playfully competitive) family and friends. As a long time fan of escape rooms, puzzles and an avid watcher of The Amazing Race... this was the perfect afternoon party activity. The puzzles were challenging, but not impossible. It exerted physical energy, but was still fun. (The hills in DTLA are NO JOKE!) And the vibe was perfection throughout. The host was upbeat and on-top of everything, and it was a well-planned out and an overall fantastic and seamless day! (Not easy with the amount of variables in multiple locations). Highly recommend Fantastic Race... and looking forward to trying out some of their other offerings throughout the city.

This was the BEST Christmas Eve event to spend with family and friends. The excitement started the minute we were told the race started until we reached the final destination. I promise you will not be disappointed in this excursion. A++++++++

So much fun to see the city. It was wonderfully organized and put together. We did the LA1 and there were a few hills, but the fun puzzles gave us the energy to finish. I look forward to going again to see LA2 and the one in Santa Monica!

We had a fabulous time on a hot July weekend. We are all huge Amazing Race fans and were very excited about our event. Larry was very enthusiastic and a great host. The company is very COVID conscious and we were always made to feel comfortable. The race was very well coordinated and provided a rare opportunity to see sights that even locals may have not visited before. Would definitely recommend for families, friends or even team building. Can't wait to try out The Fantastic Race at their other locations!

It’s truly fun for all ages. Our two boys (21 and 18) had a blast. Oh and...my wife and I would have taken quite a bit longer if it wasn’t for them. You really get to take in the sites and sounds of both Hollywood and DTLA on this wild ride. The puzzles aren’t incredibly hard, but they are not too easy either. It make you think and ponder just long enough for a certain Ah Ha moment! Will definitely go on another of their adventures.
