About
Challenge yourself and have fun! Adventure hunt has elements of a scavenger hunt, a treasure hunt, an escape room and is 100% fun. Find clues and solve puzzles using your observation, memory and logic while having a laugh with friends and family. This activity is self-guided, so you can start any time you like and take a break as and when you want. If you are looking for things to do with children, a fun family activity or a cheap group activity with friends then Adventure Hunt is ideal for you. It's also ideal as a birthday activity. Adventure Hunt guides you around a series of interesting locations. At each location, you have to answer a question, which always relates to your current surroundings. Adventure Hunt is best done in groups of 2-3 but there is no restriction on this. If you have a bigger group, why not split up into two groups and make it competitive?
Duration: 2-3 hours

Hey we booked an adventure hunt for our kid 9 birthday. The tour operators helped us amazingly with all questions and set up the hunt so we could easily do 2-3 groups. Always one group was accompanied by one adult so we could help them on the harder hints. i highly recommend the Adventure hunt, as you move with the kids and the kids will have a chance to discover things in Lagos which you pass everyday but not recognize. Thumbs up for the adventure hunt.

We live about 20 minutes from Alvor and are always looking out for things that we haven't done or seen before for when we have friends over from the UK. We always suggest guests check out Alvor and tried this with friends that have 2 young children who had a great time and really enjoyed it. The app does a good job guiding you through Alvor and we even saw a few things that we hadn't come across before. It keeps you within the town and it isn't too far to walk although in the summer you'd want to start early if it's going to be a hot day and it probably isn't suitable for anyone that is less mobile. We will definitely suggest it for other family's that come to visit and want to visit Alvor knowing that they should have a good time and get guided through the town in a fun and interactive way.

Thanks for such a great review. As one of our Adventure Hunts is specifically designed for families it’s really good to hear the children enjoyed it.

So much fun! This is a great way to discover Alvor. The ‘hunt’ led us through the village bringing us to many of the major spots. The clues were fun, and some a little challenging (which is a good thing). A great activity for a group (suggest 3-4). Highly recommend

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a positive review. It’s great to hear that you found the clues both fun and challenging – this is exactly what we are aiming for in creating the hunts.

Firstly, this is a great idea and even though we had been to Alvor a few times before, it made us walk into areas of the town we had never seen before which was fantastic. It was easy to pay and download the app and the first clue or two were fine.
Alas, we misinterpreted one of the early clues which took us the wrong direction and some clues we just could not find at all. This dented our confidence in some of the clues and we also noticed that two of the clue areas were areas that you just would not walk around as an adult male with a phone/camera in your hand but maybe this is just a UK thing!
We got so frustrated after 75% in being unable to find yet another item that we just gave up I'm afraid. We are both intelligent and do lots of puzzles and puzzle games but the clues were just too ambiguous for us - we probably aren't as clever as we thought :)
The app worked well but it did constantly ask for the order number to login each time it lost focus (such as taking a photo) which was annoying. Would recommend you write it down or remember it so save having to find it in your email every 10 minutes. Also, the idea of giving you an indication when you are in the general area was great but please allow the users to change that sound as the one provided was pretty cringeworthy!
It would have been good for us to be able to see what we were meant to be looking for after we gave up on a clue. There were still a few we had no idea about even after spending 10 minutes searching around the given area.
So in essence, wanted to love it as it seemed a great idea, but it just didn't work for us. Obviously we are the outliers as other reviews are extremely positive. YMMV.

Thank you for taking the time to write a comprehensive and balanced review. We're sorry to hear that you didn't really enjoy the experience.
We regularly check the clues and directions to make sure that they are user-friendly and appropriate, and there is also the map you can use if you get lost. We're also in the process of adding more photos to the answer explanations - something you suggested would have been helpful.
In response to your comment about areas that you wouldn't walk around as a male with a camera, we're assuming that you're referring to the clues near children's play areas. We have thought a lot about this but our view is that it isn't a problem because the clues don't require you to take any photos in the area.
We're not sure why you kept having to login - so we will check this. Thank you for highlighting.
Finally, thanks again for your constructive feedback. It's disappointing to hear that it just didn't work for you as we aim to create experiences that will appeal to a wide audience but we take on board all feedback as part of our process of continual improvement.

This was a fun 3 hours. Some of the clues made you really think. I liked the diversity of the clues!! What we also found is we got to see parts of Alvor we never knew existed.
Really recommend doing this treasure hunt😊

A really fun way to spend a few hours and explore. Some of the answers were v v specific but its meant to be fun so hardly a trauma if you lose points! Have been coming to Alvor several times a year for years and still discovered new things! We did the advanced one - well worth it and will look at the one for Lagos too!

A really fun experience we were a group of 3 women against 3 men, we really enjoyed not only the challenge of solving the clues but also a chance to see some new parts of Alvor. definitely a bargain and a fun way to spend a couple of hours

It's a fun way of getting to know Alvor with kids. You can do it when the weather isn't nice to go to the beach.

What a fabulous thing to do! Loved it. I know Alvor but after this fun adventure I found places and restaurants/bars/sights that I hadn’t seen before and you get to see more of Alvor winding round the streets seeing the sights. It was so much fun solving the puzzles!
