Is the price per person? Or per scavenger hunt?

The price covers the whole group – we recommend 2 to 5 people for optimum fun for everyone in the group, and have designed the questions and puzzles to require a bit of teamwork in most cases.

Can I bring more than 6 people?

Absolutely! Bring as many as you want. Please note: with more than 5 or 6 in a group, each person will have less opportunity to contribute, and probably have a little less fun. To keep it fun for everyone, we recommend splitting larger groups in to 5 or 6 people maximum, buying one scavenger hunt per group, and competing against the other groups to get the highest score. That way everyone gets to participate and have fun.

Can the Scavenger Hunt Walking Tour be used for team building?

Definitely! Split your group into teams of 5 to 6 people. Send one Gift Certificate to a captain for each team. Each team captain uses the Gift Certificate to register their team. Then have the teams stagger their start times by about 5 minutes. Then have a blast competing for the high score!

How do I start my scavenger hunt?

Purchase the scavenger hunt on our website. If you already have a booking, ticket, or prepaid voucher, redeem it by adding the scavenger hunt to your cart, then tap the link that says “Have a coupon?

Would this be fun for a date?

We think so! It’s a fun way to get outside and explore, work together, and see the sights in a new way. We recommend taking all the time you want to stop and explore any of the cool sights, shops, or restaurants you find along the way..

How many tickets do I need?

Buy one scavenger hunt per team. Teams should be between 1 and 6 people.

Can I bring the kids?

Definitely! All our content is family friendly. Kids enjoy reading the questions to the group, and helping the group solve challenges. Even if your kids are too young to read the questions, they’ll enjoy listening to you read the questions out loud and helping you find clues and solve puzzles.

Can I bring my dog?

Yes! All our scavenger hunt locations (except for the Sacramento Capitol Building) are completely outdoors and pet-friendly.
