Day out in manchester

We enjoyed our time on the scavenger hunt the price was only £3 which is a bonus. I didnt give 5 stars as the app needs updating, some of the riddles we had to google because they didnt have either the signs on buildings and there is work going on in albert square so you couldnt get to the status to help solve the riddle, but we made the best of it and you definatly get your steps in, lots of walking, i would reccomend, its fun.

Great self-guided tour

A great little walk-in tour of Manchester. The football museum clue was a bit too cryptic, but everything else was great. No majorly long distances between each stop, if you follow the suggested route. I coped very well, even with an injured foot. Nice blurbs to read at each point to give you a bit of background on the history of the city!

Fun and interesting

The riddles were fun and the history facts were interesting. Struggled a bit to get the app to work with the network connection that I had.
