What have CityDays adventurers been up to?
Crawl was a lot of fun and very creative. I loved the suggestions of stops along the way and would even have enjoyed if there was maybe one more stop involved or if they came out with hunts that leaned more into a bar crawl theme. Very great time overall and loved the Xmas lights along the way. Would highly recommend!
This was a lot of fun! It was challenging, but not too hard, and we got to see a lot of interesting places!
Had an amazing time. Cleverly written. Suggest comfortable shoes and spare about 3 hours to finish. Answer questions precisely. Highly recommend.
Great way of learning about NYC!
We had a great time exploring our city and noticing lots of new things we had just walked by before! Great way to experience a city, whether you live here or are visiting.
Honestly, I did not know what to expect from this experience. I booked it as a mystery day to surprise my mom and sister as we are big Amazing Race fans, love escape rooms, and travel. This experience combines them all! We had so much fun exploring parts of Boston we had never been to before. The day flew by, we were having so much fun. I will definitely be booking again! I highly recommend this experience and can't wait to try it in another city!
