What travelers are saying
- Lavinia RMadrid, Spain1 contributionWhat a fun activity to do, and a great way of exploring the city! We did the Sherlock Holmes challenge and it wasn’t easy but getting the right answers was quite rewarding.Written April 15, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Baptiste P1 contributionFantastic tour guide for our French family! Flexible and knowledgeable, would 100% book again.

- Patti T1 contributionThis was a fun scavenger hunt app that took us to some parts of Edinburgh's Royal Mile that we might have missed otherwise. We learned some random things, followed some fun clues, and it was a fun way to explore the city! One suggestion is to bring a spare power bank, just in case.Written April 12, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- John MStoke-on-Trent, UK124 contributionsDue to the Christmas Markets in Edinburgh the first two puzzles were not possible to answer, with temporary changes and signage blocking the views. We reported this and WCT refunded us immediately.
We've not had a complimentary one for another city offered to us, which I would have expected for our inconvenience - but I did appreciate the swift refund.Written December 5, 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Unfortunately some scaffolding threatened to scupper our very first clue but we managed it. Clues were sometimes challenging but totally do-able.Written July 31, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
