What have CityDays adventurers been up to?
What a fantastic way to spend an afternoon! Explore hidden corners of the city whilst deciphering the route, conquer fun challenges and stop for refreshments along the way, all against the clock and other teams. We had a great time!
Very well organised! We saw parts of London which were unknown to us previously. Put link on as many phones as possible as it is a problem if you lose reception! Suitable for almost anyone as you can do it at your own pace with plenty of time to stop for refreshments!!
We had a fab day running around the capital, would thoroughly recommend this to anyone to try. Good value and well thought out!
The experience was absolutely amazing! Definitely found some beautiful hidden gems around London! Would definitely recommend this experience to anyone looking to do it! Just be prepared for a lot of walking and thinking 😅
We had a fantastic time. Sadly the 1st checkpoint was slightly spoilt by the fact someone had removed the clue from the shops board. Thankfully we took initiative to ask staff as otherwise we'd have been searching for hours as they hadn't realised either. HOWEVER, staff wrre very polite and apologetic and although they didn't know what to do to help us (maybe more comm with them next time so they know). Quick chat online support and in 30s on our way again! Top job!
Amazing day we all loved it excellent area of London to discover
