The Best Self-Guided Scavenger Hunts in Vancouver
We’ve stuck to a few principles that have changed the game to ensure that our explorers get the most out of their Vancouver scavenger hunt.
No waiting in line, no hassle, no guide, no strangers. That’s the CityDays way.
This means that our Vancouver scavenger hunts are a little different to other games you might have played before.
But don’t worry, there’s nothing complicated about them. If you can send and receive texts, have a pair of comfy shoes for walking in and a great bunch of people to explore Vancouver with, you’re already overqualified.
How Your Self-Guided Scavenger Hunt in Vancouver Works
Our treasure hunts in Vancouver are self-guided and designed to show you the good stuff, cut out the boring stuff, and get you interacting with your surroundings.
How do we do that?
We curate our trails so that they include a city’s most interesting streets, landmarks, and historical anomalies and introduce you to a few of its famous figures.
We also slip in plenty of hidden gems along the way - the kind of stuff even locals don’t know about - to make sure everyone’s learning and having fun.
It’s your job to answer our puzzles, riddles and clues based on your surroundings to take you from point A to point B and beyond.
Sustainability and Environmental Impact
Our business relies on appreciating the beauty and intrigue of urban environments, so the last thing we want to do is leave trash lying around.
We don’t support littering, so we haven’t left any physical objects anywhere for you to find. Instead, we’ve made use of existing buildings, curious city quirks, sculptures, pieces of street art and even street furniture as clues.
The only stuff you’ll leave our Vancouver scavenger hunts with are fond memories, plenty of knowledge and potentially a place at the top of our leaderboard. Oh, and plenty of pics too - don’t forget to send them in to us, we love seeing them and we might even reward you for your efforts…
