The Best Treasure Hunts in Liverpool

Home to dozens of globally famous landmarks such as the Royal Albert Dock, the Cavern Club, Strawberry Field and Anfield Stadium, it’s almost too easy to get swept up in Liverpool’s majestic monuments - and we understand why. 

They are the shining beacons that keep history, culture and Liverpool’s unique identity alive. 

But beyond producing more number one hit singles than any other city (look it up!) Liverpool is full of mysteries and lesser-known sights that even locals forget to notice…

Trust us when we say you’ll be surprised at what you stumble across along the way, if you only pay attention. 

Our treasure hunts in Liverpool have been designed to expose the best aspects of the city. That means you’ll pass several iconic landmarks but also stop by many intriguing places that you probably have never noticed before.

Like a live action board game, you’ll move around key features, weave between historical monuments and collect facts as you go. No detail is too big or small - and you may have to look up, down, left and right before you figure out the answer! 

All you need is a phone with WhatsApp installed, access to the internet or data, and a comfy pair of shoes. 

That’s part of what makes CityDays’ Liverpool treasure hunts the best in the city. 

There’s history, mysteries and plenty of surprises waiting for you. If you’re ready for the challenge, that is…

Any questions? Here’s how it works. 

Sustainability and Environmental Impact

The whole premise of our business relies on appreciating the beauty and intrigue of urban environments, so the last thing we want to do is leave rubbish lying around.

Honestly, Liverpool has enough curious objects and fascinating features without us getting involved. That’s why we don’t leave any physical objects for you to find.

Instead, we’ve made use of existing buildings, curious city quirks, sculptures, pieces of street art and even street furniture as clues.

The only stuff you’ll leave our Liverpool scavenger hunts with are fond memories, plenty of knowledge and potentially a place at the top of our leaderboard. 

Oh, and plenty of photos too - don’t forget to send them in to us, we love seeing them and we might even reward you for your efforts…

Your Liverpool Treasure Hunt: What to Expect

If you’ve never played a self-guided scavenger hunt in Liverpool before, you might be wondering what to expect. Don’t worry, we’ll tell you!

Essentially, our Liverpool treasure hunts get you and your friends, family, colleagues or whoever out into Liverpool’s streets and hunting down history, taking on fun challenges and solving puzzles. 

If “historical” sounds boring to you - don’t worry, you never had a history lesson like this before. Our scavenger hunts in Liverpool are all about interacting with the city and seeing it from a new perspective. 

By playing along, you’ll become detectives, explorers and game contestants all at the same time. If history isn’t your bag, don’t worry. We won’t ask you and your team anything you won’t be able to figure out for yourselves, and besides, there’s a lot more to a place than just its history.

We rely on street art, pubs, cafes and much, much more to show our explorers what’s what on our Liverpool treasure hunts.

So if you’re planning a birthday party, work do, hen or stag night or a good old fashioned pub crawl – we’re right here to help you celebrate with an adventure of your own. Just pick your preferred route, come up with a clever team name and get started when you’re ready.
