  • Bristol review by Tropical trio

    Absolutely brilliant day, opened our eyes to some really great spots around Bristol, the clues were hard enough to get you thinking but not too hard you lose interest. Also love the participation of local businesses what a great way to encourage helping each other out. We were so in the zone from the get go, i only took one picture!
