How a cityHUNT Scavenger Hunt Works

We customize each scavenger hunt to your group’s size, goals, and timing. After learning about what kind of scavenger hunt you are looking for, we plan the route, design the clues, and prepare all materials in advance.

On the day of your hunt, you’ll split into teams to solve riddles, take creative photos, and tackle location-based challenges across Lower Manhattan. At the end, we gather for a wrap-up, announce winners, and share a slideshow of your favorite moments.
