What To Expect

Looking for a way to turn Boston into a giant game board? Urban Adventure Quest has created an interactive scavenger hunt that combines the fun of the Amazing Race with a three-hour sightseeing tour of Boston. Guided from any smart phone, groups make their way among well-known and overlooked gems of the city, solving clues and completing challenges while learning local history. The adventure begins in the Boston Common and will take you on a journey among historic landmarks and along key sections of the Freedom Trail. Experience the history of old cemeteries and famous meeting halls with the sights and smells of the Italian North End.
Using a smartphone as “the guide” allows participants to start when they want and determine their own pace of play. Stop for lunch along the freedom trail or grab an Italian pastry in the North End… why not, it’s your schedule? Offered at a fixed price for a group vs. per person pricing, this city tour/game offers a great value to those on a budget. Note: Pricing is per individual, but teams must book together in order to be included in the same adventure. One voucher is valid for your team of 2-5 people
