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!
Was great fun, would definitely recommend
The clues were quite hard, but not impossible!We really enjoyed the exploration game!We’ll definitely try another trail!
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!
This eas the best fun and great way to check out our city!
Had a great day out in the city. We know the city pretty well from our younger years and got to see some old familiar sights in a new light and also discovered some other places we hadn't been before. Two of the questions were a bit vague and we had to ask for hints, it could have been because it got dark and it was harder to see the landmarks? Overall it was a great day and would love to do another one soon We will make sure to start earlier so we can take out time a but more with the stops.
