Loved that we were able to walk around the city and stop and go as we needed. It was perfect to keep our 4 and 6 year old excited about finding the next stop and earning points as well went. Liked we saw a variety of things like statues, murals, historical spots, etc. A couple places was either under construction or the art was switched out so we had to guess the answers but overall good times.

The downtown Richmond scavenger made exploring a new city extra fun for our grandson. He is still talking about many of the things we would not have seen without the help of hunt!

I went with my friend and niece and we had a wonderful time! We walked for 2 hours and the time flew by because we were so immersed in the fun of playing a game and learning about our own city. Erin greeted us at the beginning of the hunt and she was there when we were done. She was so friendly and enthusiastic! We each won a gift card for a digital tour of three different areas of Richmond and surrounding areas. We are all looking forward to taking these tours in the very near future! A great activity for an evening in Richmond!

Was not sure what exactly to expect for this scavenger hunt but was pleasantly surprised. We had fun, more fun than we thought it would be. Learned many new facts and info about the city of Richmond. I’ll probably try one of their other scavenger hunts this summer.

This was a super interesting way to explore downtown! It was casual, but informative and fun. We spent some time outdoors on a beautiful day doing something new. It far exceeded my expectations!
