Full description
Looking for a way to turn Boston Harbor area into a giant game board?  Come experience an interactive scavenger hunt that combines the fun of the "Amazing Race" with a three-hour sightseeing tour of the Harbor area. Guided from any smart phone, make your way among well-known and overlooked gems of the city, solving clues and completing challenges while learning local history. Your Boston Harbor amazing scavenger hunt adventure will begin at a serene labyrinth on the Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy Greenway and take you to historic wharves and parks with outdoor art. You'll be introduced to a small herd of seals, and view scenic harbor vistas. The game route will have you strolling down the Greenway and exploring historic harbor sites including the location of the Boston Tea Party, as the game shows you some of the best sights and hidden gems of the city. Using a smartphone as “the guide” allows participants to start when they want and determine their own pace of play. Stop for lunch along the wharf or take a stroll on one of the shaded trails of the park… why not, it’s your schedule! Offered at a fixed price for a group vs. per person pricing, this city tour/game offers a great value to those on a budget.

What a fun activity, and we learned some interesting facts about Bosto

We did the scavenger hunt with grandkids ages 11 and 13. We did have a couple of problems accessing the questions. The directions about how to redeem the voucher were not clear but we worked through it. Step by step directions or a phone number would help address problems. The activity was a lot of fun for all of us and we learned some interesting facts. I highly recommend this and we look forward to scavenger hunts in other cities.

Really fun way for me, my husband and our 12yo son to explore the harbor. This was a perfect combination of exercise, entertainment, puzzles, and history. I was very impressed with a bathroom and caffeine break built in.
