4.00A nice way to see some of the most noteworthy places, with reasonably tricky puzzles. The information about each place could have been a bit more informative, because they were mostly fill-out words that didn't say anything about the specific place.
Friendly

4.00Nice to do as a family puzzle not too complicated that can be easy for children. A good way to discover the city and have a sense of walk and know where you are going while discovering the city in an orderly way.

5.00Absolutely loved this scavenger hunt. Did it with a friend and we put a bit of a spin on it, every time one of us had to use a clue it meant we had to do a shot 🥃. But we thought it was a really good way to see the city and look at the detail on the buildings.... highly recommend!
