Scavenger Hunts

Looking for an additional activity for your Day Out in Cambridge?

You can add a scavenger hunt to any punting booking, it’s a great way to explore Cambridge City Centre in a fun (and competitive) way. The hunt is self-run and we recommend teams of 5-8 people.

Scavenger Hunts

Our scavenger hunt is based around Cambridge City centre and includes 3 question rounds, photo challenges & a collection task. We post scavenger hunt packs to you 1-2 weeks before your booking date. The packs include question sheets, maps and a pen for each time, additionally, a sealed answers envelope is included so you can mark your answers at the end of the hunt.

We suggest allowing 2 hours to complete the hunt, starting in the City Centre just off the market square. You can finish at this point or at a landmark of your choice (perhaps close to your next activity?) Just make sure all the teams know where the finishing point is!

Pricing

Prices start at just £60 for 2 team packs. Additional team packs are charged at £20 each. We suggest teams of 5-8 people. Therefore for groups larger than 16-18 people, we would suggest ordering additional team packs.
