another great mystery to follow in old Canterbury. great day out - another absolutely brilliant mystery. They just get better and better!! And we are seeing more and more people doing them. Everyone enjoys them , they are a real conversation starter. Just one little hint:- clue 1 has building materials over the seated statue, but if you look up high you can still the shields that you need to see. there were some incredible old buildings on this mystery, how do you find it all? I'm glad that you do because it is our favourite thing to do. Thank you for the heads up about the car that crashed into the clue on the Windsor mystery. we have bought that one for my partner's granddaughter's birthday later this month, so we shall pass on the vital bit!! Next up will be Leicester and Hull. so the globetrotting continues.....thank you so much for having the interest yourself to make all this wonderful magic happen :).

Really great day out - We had such a great day solving the mystery. The clues were the perfect amount of challenging and the optional pub stops were very welcome on a hot day. We bought another map (Brum) on the way home!

A MUST TO DO - Such a shame I can only Go to 5 , it was amazing, you can Go at your own pace and you would never see all the things without this mystery guide. It adds a bit of fun into a day out. Already looking for the next adventure. At the price it's a no brainer.

Fantastic family experience - What a fantastic day out as a family. A mixture of ages from 15 years to over 70. Mums in a wheel chairs and it was completely accessible from start to finish. Kept the teenagers off their phones the whole time which is normally a hard task to do.

A Great Way To Explore, Even If You're Familiar - This was a gift and although my wife and I know Stratford very well as we're here at least once a month, we still found that the treasure hunt opened up familiar locations even more as we were guided to places in the town we knew well but the clues given mean you have to look at these locations in a completely different way. One of the clues didn't make sense, even after looking on the back page at the 'nudge' that gets you to the answer if you're stuck. The rest of the clues were clever though and in some cases you have to really think out of the box. We're lucky because we live not far from Stratford so we did the hunt over three visits. Younger kids would maybe find it a little tough but you can get them to search for the components of the clue to get them involved. Thoroughly recommend.

Great gift and fun way to spend the afternoon - Not too easy, not too hard. Really nice way to see Stratford and a fun afternoon! Quite a few other groups/couples doing the same mystery adventure (it’s popular!) so you might have to either get ahead of them or wait a little to keep a gap between yourselves to not spoil the fun.
