A Tourist Scavenger Hunt is a 2-3 hour self-guided walking tour of a popular neighborhood. We have activities set up in over 25 cities across Canada, the United States, and Europe. As a matter of fact, they are educational, informative, challenging, and fun for any type, and size, of the group.

You might wonder “Why would I recommend a $50 activity for my client“? In fact, our $50 price is good for a group of up to 6 people.

It’s true our activity is low-cost compared to in-person tours and bus tours. However, ours is not fixed by specific reservation times or a limited number of clients at any given time. No reservation is required.

Moreover, our tour has challenges at most stops. They’re little games for participants to play and have a different kind of experience.

Ideal for who?

We’re the ideal solution for these types of clients:

• Low budget clients
• Large groups such as large family trips, school trips, and conventions.
• Contact us for special pricing when dealing with 10 or more groups. We can invoice and offer greater discounts for larger groups.

Moreover, we regularly have groups doing school outings, business team building, families with children 5+, friends of all ages, and tourists from across the globe.

All of our circuits are built, and tested, with similar parameters:

• Start either at a principal tourist area, near a large historic hotel within the tourist area, or where most tour buses depart. In most cases, we’ve ensured it starts close to public transit and/or public parking for extra convenience.
• End within 2-3 blocks of where they started – convenient if they parked a car, took transit, or are staying nearby. In other words, they are not left stranded at the other end of town.
• In fact, our tours are a loop between 3.5 and 4.5 kilometers (2.2 – 2.85 miles), on foot.
• All Tourist Scavenger Hunts are $50 per group. A group can be 1 to 6 people.
  • However, please note there is an exception for Explorer Scavenger Hunts that are longer, and thus, more expensive ($67.50).
• 1 participant per group (up to 6 persons) needs to have a fully charged smartphone with an Internet connection (Wifi will not be enough).
• Finally, our customer service is available 24/7 by phone and responds rapidly to texts, messages, and emails.

With the start location address, the client proceeds there first. Once there, they will log in to their own client account to start the activity.

• All instructions, directions, and information are available through our mobile website, on their smartphone – there is no download.
• They’ll start with a few instructions and clarifications – which avoids confusion and misunderstandings.
• Then, they’ll receive some historical/fun facts about where they are. In other words, why is this place, monument, building, etc, significant? They’ll be issued a challenge and have 2 attempts to complete it.
• Once they submit their answer and received, or lost points, they’ll receive directions to their next stop with cardinal points, left/right relative to something near them, and street names and addresses – to ensure they get to the next point.
• At the next stop, the cycle begins anew: History/fun facts, challenge, solution, directions…

Further details

• At some locations, there can be many stops if there are many important things to see.
• They’ll never need to walk more than 5 minutes between 2 stops.
• They can proceed throughout the activity at their own pace. Indeed, your client can take as little time, or as long as they wish.
• They can pause at any time to visit a museum/attraction along the way, stop for food, then resume. They can even continue the next day should they desire to do so.
