  • Bristol review by Crop Circle

    Excellent day out, we loved our Bristol experience, thoughtful clues for each leg. The challenges were fun, the first one very hard but we cracked it eventually! As wine lovers, were thrilled with the end location.

  • Bristol review by Team pub crawl

    Brilliant fun across Bristol as part of a friends birthday weekend. The clues were great and well thought out, the route was super interesting and I would definitely do one of these again in a different location!!

  • Bristol review by Savvy Sailors

    Great questions, lovely area of the city, challenging quests. Shame Peros bridge is out of order meaning a slight detour needed.

    Challenging (for us) but very fun, would recommend bringing a portable charger!

  • Bristol review by The Sandrihuns

    Fun day out! Especially liked the work puzzles, the pedro bridge is currently down due to a fault so we knew to go around it as Bristolians but others may not know this! Didn’t take away from a great experience tho, looking forward to doing other cities!
