Reviews:

“I've done a couple of treasure hunts around London and this one is by far my favourite! The combination of puzzle and orienteering work with genuine treasure at the end made for a unique and enjoyable day out. I'm hoping there's some new routes to try.”

“A really fun and entertaining Treasure Hunt around London. Seeing some area's off the beaten track and testing me and my family mentally. :) The 20% off at the Pub Treasure at the end makes it a great value product too.”

“The right balance of visual clues, riddles and compass directions and it was a really fun afternoon. The staff in the pub at the end were also really accommodating and the food there was excellent. Only down side was that my team lost.”
