“Great family activity” We did this with our kids and it kept everyone engaged the whole time. They loved solving the clues and running ahead to find the next stop. It was educational without feeling like a lesson. Perfect family activity in St. Augustine.
“Best date idea we’ve done in a while” We were looking for something different to do and this was perfect. It gave us something fun to do together instead of just walking around. The mix of history and puzzle-solving made it really memorable.
“Better than a guided tour” We’ve done guided tours before, but this was way better. No waiting around, no big group, and we could go at our own pace. The clues made it feel interactive instead of just listening to someone talk.
“A unique way to explore the city” We stumbled across City Quest while looking for things to do in St. Augustine and were so glad we did. It took us to spots we never would have noticed and made the whole experience feel like an adventure.
“Worth every dollar” For the price, this was a no-brainer. It gave us over an hour of entertainment and we learned a lot about the city. Way more fun than just walking around without a plan.
“One of the most fun things we did in St. Augustine” We’ve visited St. Augustine a few times, but this was by far the most interactive way we’ve ever explored it. The clues were fun, the history was interesting, and we ended up seeing places we normally would have walked right past. Highly recommend for couples or families.
“Perfect mix of history and adventure” This was such a cool way to learn about the city without doing a traditional tour. We loved solving the clues and moving at our own pace. It felt like a game but we actually learned a lot along the way. Definitely one of the best things to do in St. Augustine.
“Great for groups and way more fun than expected” We did this with a small group and it turned into a fun competition between us. The stops were well thought out and the questions made you really look at your surroundings. Super easy to follow and a great way to spend an afternoon downtown.
Adventure Guaranteed.
