7.Fun Puzzle Treasure Hunt to a Pub! + Team Racing!

★★★★★★★★★★3.6 · 5 reviews · 182 days

You’ll follow a self-guided route from St Peters Church in Castle Park, solving riddles, codes, trivia, and compass tasks for about 2 to 3 hours. Choose one route or buy both to race another team. Finish at a pub for food, drinks, a discount, and a local history activity pack.

“A ne pas faire si vous ne maîtrisez pas complètement l’anglais ni si vous aimez marcher avec du dénivelé (donc encore moins avec des enfants). L’organisateur n’est pas assez disponible ni réactif, pas aidant et nous n’avons pas pu finir l’activité (donc pas bénéficier du trésor au pub). De plus, le jour de notre réservation, tout Bristol était bloqué pour le marathon: il aurait été très utile pour nous de le savoir et d’être mises en garde de ce que cela impliquait !”
