We had a great time doing Treasure Hunt Newcastle! It was a really good length and took us all round the city, so it was a perfect way to orientate ourselves for the rest of the weekend. The clues were a good level of challenge, and there was always a helpful hint if we needed it! Plus plenty of great recommendations for places to stop for a well earned pint. Would highly recommend to anyone!

We were staying nearby and organised this to beat the usual day out.
This was very different.
We really enjoyed it.
It's not easy and really has you thinking.
We completed Newcastle but can't wait to look at our next one.

We did this in Newcastle with my teenage son and my parents. It was a brilliant way to see the city at our own pace. The clues were great - criptic and challenging. We solved a good chunk ourselves and used the helpful hints to help with the others. I look forward to doing this again in another city.

This Newcastle city Treasure Hunt was great fun - although we live down South we know Newcastle centre quite well but this shed a new light on it and we learnt a lot of interesting facts that we didn't know before - the clues were very well pitched (some pretty tough, some more straightforward) and there are plenty of watering holes along the way - highly recommended as something a bit different

This was a gift to me and my boyfriend for Christmas, as something a bit different to do, and it was different in such a great way! We had tons of fun on this treasure hunt, and despite having previously lived in Newcastle before, I learned a lot about the different areas! Some of the clues were a little tricky, but me and my boyfriend liked the challenge and the hints were helpful when needed. I would say that the timing was quite accurate for us - we did not take any stops along the way and it took around about a couple hours, great for getting the steps in! I would definitely recommend and we plan on doing more treasure hunts in other cities as well!

Had a great time and saw lots of places we would never had found. No time pressures so took all day. Lovely bars/cafes as we followed the clues 😊

This was a fun experience where we took it at our own pace and got to see a few more places than we were expecting. Definitely recommended if you want to get a flavour of the city and decide later if you want to revisit.
The clues were just challenging enough for our heads and the format for getting clues and answering them was super-simple to use. And the instant feedback meant we didn't feel we were waiting for anything.
