We did the Scaventure with our 5 teenage kids and they broke us into groups of 3 and 4 which worked out perfectly. Everyone had their turn to shine.
We started off competitively but slowed down when we realized the interesting facts we were learning. We all really enjoyed despite the rain and hailstorm that happened in the middle of our game!

We had a fantastic time doing the shuk scavenger hunt. It was great working with tali to plan everything. That night yomtov was our guide and he was amazing.
We were a group from 60 yrs old to 3 yrs old. Every single one of us had a fantastic time.
I highly recommend this activity!

So far, I have attended three scavenger hunts with Israel ScaVentures in Jerusalem. All were very well-researched and -organised. I had lots of fun and picked up interesting details without even noticing.
The most recent hunt took place in Yemin Moshe, an area I know well. Yet I still discovered facts that were new to me.
I would recommend this activity to anyone - visitors and residents, families, couples and friends.

I did this activity with my ten year old son in the Old City of Jerusalem, and we both agree it was the most fun and educational portion of our visit to Israel. The game itself is crafted in a very creative way, and we were really "hands on" learning the history of the Old City. Although we had been to Israel before, we learned so many things we hadn't previously. The group leaders were intelligent, fun and helpful. There was nothing about this that we didn't like!!! I highly recommend it.

The whole group enjoyed running around the Shuk and we learned lot.
We reserved the event via email and they were easy to deal with.
They followed up the day before.
We all had a fun time.

Our family, including 3 kids aged 13,9, 7 were engaged in the Jewish Quarter hunt from the moment we started our scavenger hunt. The scavenger hunt is great educationally, as you learn a lot you've never known about the Old City, but the kids are so involved in finding clues, looking around for visual clues and listening that they don't realize they've learned a lot. Each kid had a specific task keeping them all involved. The clues are fantastic at helping you understand the rich and storied history in the Jewish Quarter in such a fun and engaging way. I promise by the end, you'll never look at a column in the cardo the same way again, or think twice about leaving your key under the mat at your house.
If you really want your kids to "see" the Jewish Quarter and not just walk through it, then sign up for a scaVenture and you wouldn't be disappointed.

Your kids were amazing, and I'm delighted that you all had such a meaningful experience on your Old City Scavenger Hunt! I'll never forget your son's face when he heard the story of the key and the Istanbuli! Looking forward to meeting you all on one of our other routes!

I've been in the old city of Jerusalem countless times. Walked around in the Jewish quarter countless times; & I never saw some of the very interesting sites scavengers sent me to! It is well thought out, informative & fun. I highly recommend to any group of teenagers or older

I generally avoid guided tours--finding they never go at the same pace I want to go, yet always feeling like I might be missing out on some interesting information. Israel Scaventures is the perfect solution. A fun and informative way to learn about the Old City--at your own pace and fun for the whole family. Our team was age 8 to 82. We had a blast and learned a lot. The Scavenger Hunt "guide" would keep tabs on us and provide other interesting information. A well organized activity. Although I won't be back in Israel for a few years, we are already talking about doing the one in Tsfat on our next trip. (The only downside, as mentioned by other posters is that the meeting spot in the Old City is not easy to find. People who live in the area don't know where the Sephardi Center is--you have to ask for the 4 Sephardic Synagogues. I asked about 12 people who all said I don't know or sent me somewhere else--but don't let that discourage you from this great activity.)

I don't know where to begin with how wonderful Tali and her staff at Israel Scaventures was to us! I found them via web search while looking for creative ideas for getting engaged, and it was far beyond my expectations. I only had a week or so before the trip to plan, from halfway around the world no less, and Tali handled every last detail for me. I have been complimented so many times by family and friends at what an amazing proposal it was, and it was all Tali's planning and her company's hard work that made it happen.
Tali first referred us to a private guide, Jeremy Collins ("Jerusalem with Jeremy" here on Trip Advisor), and Jeremy played right along, giving us a fantastic tour of Jerusalem and the Machne Yehuda Market as an excuse to get her near the Old City. He delivered us right on time to ScaVentures in Old City as the sun was setting.
Tali had every last detail set up and ready for her. They took my fiancee on a private scavenger hunt all through the Old City! She learned not only about the historical significance of the places she visited, but also little hints and gifts from me as she started to figure out what was really happening. Tali not only gave her a personal guide, but there was a photographer following along to record the evening, and even a musician to play for us as I proposed. Flowers, chocolate, everything you could think of, Tali had already lined up and ready for us.
The best part though was the spot she found for us, overlooking the city and the Western Wall as evening settled in. Absolutely magical. There was no way she could say no after the experience Tali had just given her!
I am confident that Tali can pull off just about anything after what I saw her accomplish in less than a week's time. If you have a special occasion you want to celebrate, I can't think of anyone better to help you make the memory of a lifetime.
Tali's ability to perfectly blend such a joyous occasion for us along with a beautiful city, it's history, and it's people... well, my fiancee was overwhelmed with joy, which was just what I had hoped for when Tali told me her plan. Well done, Israel ScaVentures!
Tali featured us on their Facebook page just after the proposal if you would like to see some pictures they took of our big day, posted March 24th.
Thanks again Tali and the whole ScaVentures crew!
