Fun run around!
I will say if you're expecting people along the way as you go around, this is not for me. My friend and I did it and didn't know what to expect. Everything's sent to you on your phone and you just go through at your own pace. We were walking around like headless chickens and had a rough start but it got more fun when we getting into it. It was only 2 of us so maybe if you have a bigger group it's more fun? Lots of bonuses to make up for anything you miss and a nice way to explore a new place! Definitely would recommend if you have the time, patience and abilities to roll through the chaos! 🥰 the host were great with communicating and helping along the way! 10/10

A Fun Scavenger Hunt
A fun way to explore Downtown Sarasota, though the Scavenger Hunt was presented in a rather haphazard manner, with small, crammed, hard-to-read-on-a-phone pages that listed the items for which we were searching. We were hunting in Sarasota, and were confused to find some items for Syracuse on our list. Another mural we were asked to find no longer exists, so the hunt might need a little updating. But it was still a fun way to pass a couple of hours and explore the downtown area.

Too much hassle!
This was the worst experience I have ever encountered. it was very disorganized. You are told to meet in front of a deli at the time set. No one in the deli know what we were asking when we entered. Then you have to download WhatsApp and look at a Canva presentation on your phone. It is way too many steps just to walk around to find the places they want you to are closed, or do not open until your allotted time was almost up. A complete waste of time, save your money, that they will not refund.

So fun having to be...
So fun having to be challenged to think outside the box. We got to see more things and learn about the city that we were traveling to in a different and unique way. We loved the interaction with Michelle via text, even though she wasn’t with us. She was very encouraging and fun!!! Would totally do this again!!
