Fun Around the Riverwalk!
So much fun to see the city and learn about the history. We had a ball, and loved visiting sights we had not known of. I will be repeating this quest with visitors to the city, and I will join the hunt in Key West later this year!
Operator response
Great to hear you had a blast in San Antionio on the Quest. Such a great area for history and fun down by the riverwalk while solving fun challenges as a group.

San Antonio Sleuths
I and my two teenage grandkids found ourselves at the starting point and started our scavenger adventure. Our overall thoughts were 1) Once you found the correct place to be, the hunting for the specific listed treasures and items was fun. 2) We found getting to the different listed places to be frustrating. We got lost a lot. We were wondering if placing "pins" on a interactive map (google?) Would facilitate a faster ability to navigate to the next place. Afterall, the fun of the hunt is being at a place where the hints will guide us to success. Not wandering around the City quite often taking the wrong turn. It is important to know that this is not for anyone who has any "walking problems!" You cover some distance.

Sorry that you had issues with finding the locations. That is actually a surprise to us as we provide detail directions and try to make the puzzles the only challenging aspect of the game. We simply do not get this feedback regarding the directions but understand that a city can be challenging to navigate at times.

Disappointed
It was disappointing that many questions were unanswerable due to many obstacles- construction, closed elevators due to remodeling, closed church and so forth- see pics- these are just two of the problems- the online game needs to stay up to date on what’s going on as it was a run around - I feel like a refund should be given-
Operator response
We always approve refunds with our money back guarantee. We were just in San Antonio and made changes to account for the construction.

San Antonio spring break
Great way to learn a new city. Was harder than we thought. Didn’t realize case sensitivity at first.

Great date night!
Great scavenger hunt! We went for a date night and loved it! We were able to see places that we wouldn't normally see or go to. Loved working as a team so navigate throughout the town and solve the clues.
Operator response
Glad you had a great time on your date adventure. I hope you will give us a try in some of our other cities

Fun exploration of new area
Fun way to explore a new area! It gave us a mission or purpose to exploring around instead of just wandering. Got thru all 18 questions and we did all of the optional bonus questions. Took us 3h21m of pretty much solid questing other than potty breaks. Good way to spend time and work together :)
Operator response
Glad you had a fantastic time on your adventure

Perfect half-day activity with kids
It was a perfect half- day activity for a family especially with two teens. They were very engaged and would otherwise eager to go back to our Airbnb and get on their devices :) The locations include many sites rich in history but we would otherwise not know. We would definitely try to do the Urban Quest Scavenger hunt in other cities when we tour. My husband and I really enjoyed it too!
Operator response
Thanks for such a nice review. It is amazing how many reviews we get that talk about how parents and their teen kids were able to reconnect and have fun together during the Quest. Such a great experience to work together as a team and see the sights while having fun together.
