Fascinating

4.00An excellent way to discover the city. The game is very well made with a beautiful bag that is carried with lots of tools to solve the puzzles. The children hooked up quickly and were delighted. The only downside is that the puzzles are complex. After 4 hours we returned to the start with 3 unsolved puzzles
A fun and joyful hunt in a limited radius

5.00This is an excellent scavenger hunt with escape room qualities. If you are familiar with Antigua it's fairly easy to find the locations (and it says explicitly where to go, lol). The puzzles were fun, engaging and I loved the satchel of stuff that we used in the solves. Admission was almost $20 us and worth it. We did the hunt slowly, stopping to shop, bring back souvenirs to our hotel and eat lunch. I think someone could easily do it in 2 hours. The staff were laid back. The worker at the end was excited with us which was fun.
Super fun game & exploration of the town

5.00I've done Escape Rooms, but never a "Scavenger Hunt" -- but now I'm a fan! The puzzles were just the right level for our group... challenging but doable (sometimes needing the hints), and took 2.5 hours. If you like puzzles and escape rooms, you'll like this! The puzzles (with one exception) were easy to find and follow, and took us to really cool places in a ~5 block area -- including some places that had been on my list to visit but hadn't made it to yet, and some places I would never have found otherwise. Overall a super fun way to explore the town and indulge my inner gamer with friends.
Clues and Cobblestones

5.00We had such a blast doing the Mysteries of Antigua Interactive Treasure Hunt! The adventure took us to 8 important spots around Antigua, and each puzzle made us slow down, really look, and think. Our group laughed a lot and loved working together to solve the clues. Such a fun, creative way to explore the city. I would highly recommend! We had a young child with us and she was a trooper but the puzzles are challenging and some young children could feel confused at times.

5.00We did it in the day we arrived in Antigua, just perfect to get to know a few spots and more about Antigua. The game is super fun and clever. To book it was easy and fast. You walk all over the City looking for clues to complete the "case". I recomend for friends, famílias, couples. We loved it
Funny.

5.00I did this activity with my family and it was very entertaining. It was a very original way to get to know new sites and things from Antigua. The mission instructions are clear (both in English and Spanish), make you think and you have to walk a few blocks down the street of the arch. The activity took us about 2.5 hours, with adults between 30 and 70 years old.
Have fun to get to know La Antigua!

5.00A fun and engaging way to get to know Antigua and learn some cool facts along the way. We were a group of 7 and Splitting into two teams made it even more exciting, especially with the friendly competition to see who would finish first!

4.00Una experiencia totalmente nueva y emocionante! :) Involucrar elementos del entorno e interactuar con ellos para encontrar el tesoro fue una aventura increíble. Durante el recorrido, conocí un poco más la antigua y observé cosas que nunca había visto antes. Si te gusta la aventura, resolver acertijos y pasar un buen rato, ¡esto es para ti! ✌🏼 A totally new and exciting experience! :) Involving elements of the environment and interacting with them to find the treasure was an incredible adventure. During the tour, I got to know the old one a little more and observed things I had never seen before. If you like adventure, solving riddles and having a good time, this is for you! ✌🏼
