What have CityDays adventurers been up to?
What fun! So interesting, well planned with a great route around the city. Thought the clues were really clever and really made us think. Would thoroughly recommend this to anyone in Melbourne who likes a walk and a challenge!
We really enjoyed this experience. The instructions were easy to follow and tech was great. Thanks!
Such a fun day out! We learnt so much about the local area that we'd never known about. A really great way to get to know the wonderful city of Melbourne better!
We thoroughly enjoyed the game and the scenery. (But not the freezing wind on the foreshore!!) Finding no:2 was tricky as I think we were on the wrong side of the road. We had to double back quite a way to find No: 9! We weren't counting metres. It was fascinating to read the history and learn of the past inhabitants. Not forgetting the original inhabitants! A fun time!
This eas the best fun and great way to check out our city!
This was really fun and worked smoothly. Thanks.
