Secret City Scavenger Hunts Reviews

Joe hosted a scavenger hunt in AMNH for my small Google team of 8 and we had an incredible time. Participants were super engaged and enthusiastic. Will definitely be back with more teams!

Very fun corporate team building event! Our hosts were helpful and funny, even as a large group of about 40. The puzzles were fun and challenging and did a great job of taking us through the museum.

Jared was super easy to work with and really responsive with any questions I had while coordinating our event.

I've gotten many requests to set up another hunt so we will be returning soon!

Our students had an amazing time! The teams enjoyed competing against each other and even split up to tackle the scavenger hunt more effectively. A fun way to tour the museum and see all the amazing artifacts! Our host, Joe, was very kind and informative. A great experience!

What a terrific experience! We used this as a team building activity and it was a blast. Sarah was a great host. Everyone really enjoyed the experience and challenge of the hunt at Grand Central Station.

We chose the Chelsea Market Challenge for our Secret City Scavenger Hunt as part of our office Holiday activity. What a great choice! We had a fantastic time. Our host, Krista, did a marvelous job, bringing energy and Christmas cheer to the hunt. The Market itself was very festive, and the hunt took us through the fascinating history of this beautiful building. Thank you Secret City Scavenger Hunt for helping make it a merry and memorable day. Highly recommended.

We did the Chelsea market scavenger hunt for our daughter’s 16th birthday get together.
All girls loved it. It was very well organized from start I booked till the end. Jared helped us to find the right hunt for our needs and Walter was great during the hunt. We highly can recommend the scavenger hunt for all ages.

We used Secret City for a team-building scavenger hunt at our tech company. It was a great experience start to finish, they were easy to communicate with, reliable, and our team had fun. I highly recommend!

Our group of active Seniors (15) enjoyed our Scavenger Hunt at GCS so much , we just finished our second hunt (25 ppl) at the AMNH. General consensus- let’s plan our THIRD event with even MORE people.

I took a group of high school young ladies and chaperones to NYC to do the Central Park scavenger hunt. This was my 2nd booking with Secret City. Our first trip included the Grand Central Terminal hunt. In comparing the two… Central Park was amazing because, well, it’s Central Park! It was beautiful weather, everybody was having an amazing time but it was soooo long. It didn’t seem possible and everybody complained about sore bodies. I loved this hunt so much but would just advise to scale it down a bit, try not to cover so much ground. That is what the Grand Central one had over the Central Park. A smaller amount of land to cover. Loved the Central Park one, just cut some or one or two areas of the park out!!!! Fabulous time!!

We had celebrated a friends 55th birthday in Vegas last March, and this Scavenger Hunt was our gift to her. We actually played a game while in Vegas to give her options to choose from, and this was her choice.

I made a great choice by choosing Secret City to fulfill this gift for our friend. We chose to do the Central Park Hunt, and we had perfect weather for a day in the park. Little did we know that we would be getting a workout in, but what an amazingly fun, and amazing day! We were all New Yorkers, but not all city people, and it gave us a chance to see parts of the park that you don't necessarily see. The clues/questions were smart, challenging, and fun, and the other surprise challenges were even more fun. We had so many people in the park asking us about what we were doing, and envying the fun time we were having.

All in all a 10 out of 10, and would highly recommend this! Thank you Julie our guide, and Jared for your guidance as I made the decision. And of course HAPPY BIRTHDAY to our dear friend KORI!!!!

An amazing team building event hosted by Secret City. We will be back soon for another location.

Decided to do the Midtown Manhattan scavenger hunt as a team building exercise in NYC, and we couldn't of been happier ! It was an amazing turn out, we learnt a lot about the city and noticed small quirks of the town which we wouldn't of spotted as simple tourists. A big thank you Secret city for coordinating it and Krista for being a fair and great referee !

Had such a blast. Local New Yorkers said they realized how little they knew about their own city. As someone who loves to walk around staring up at the buildings and reading the plaques, I was living my best life!! The competition fuels you to move at a quick clip, but the SoHo hunt was so fun and beautiful. There's really not enough time to stop and eat on the hunt haha so be prepared to flag things in your map that you want to return to! But it was just so much fun to work as a team running around and figuring things out. I went with friends to celebrate my ten year anniversary in the city, and afterwards we were all buzzing about how perfect and unique it was. Here's hoping I can do it again someday! Thom, our guide, was so warm and genuine and I was grateful for his kind, positive energy. Also had an awesome experience with the customer support in planning from the beginning; they're willing to work with you to make sure you and your group have the best time, and even to adjust if weather changes the week of!! I'd recommend this to anyone!!

Was a great team building activity! The scavenger hunt was very well put-together and a very fun challenge! Jared was great with booking process and Joe was a great scavenger hunt host. Got to see hidden gems & attractions and learn about some historical landmarks. Great experience overall!

Laura was great! The scavenger hunt (Natural History Museum) was the right mix of challenging and fun.

It was great experience anticipating Secret City’s scavenger hunting event. They design the game in a great way with team pictures, videos and word games. Throughout the hunting, we have to find hidden clues behind murals, statues and city signs. By following each delicately designed questions, we walked on the street, in the buildings, up and downstairs, and sometimes get help from local residents or securities for each answers, entered shops that we would never got a chance to enter, explored the magnificent city history and fascinating stories. It was a fun game and I will do it again for my next visit to NY!
