Amazing Central Park Scavenger Hunt
Overview
Amazing Central Park Scavenger Hunt Looking for a way to turn New York's Central Park 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 New York's Central Park.
Guided from any smartphone, groups make their way among well-known and overlooked gems of the park, solving clues and completing challenges while learning local history.
The adventure begins at The Dakota and will take you on a journey through the middle section of this great preserve.
The Quest route leads you from Strawberry Fields to the architectural splendor of the Natural History Museum and the Met, from ornate art hidden around playgrounds to the great Reservoir.
The tour requires just over 2.5 miles of walking and is easily accessed from local transit systems.
Using a smartphone as "the guide" allows participants to start when they want and determine their own pace of play.
Grab a bite from a street cart or an ice cream in the park--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.
Please Note: This is a fully self-guided, clue-solving adventure completed on your smartphone, with no live guide provided.
