Very fun

Very simple to use, and a lovely walk. We only needed on phone between three people so very cost effective. It says you can buy and rearrange it if the weather is bad or your plans change which is handy. Overall very enjoyable

Operator response

A fun afternoon family activity

Fun afternoon out in a part of London I thought I knew well - but much to my surprise the route took me down streets and into gardens I hadn’t visited before. The mytery is easy to follow and play along, and gives nice nuggets of info and history throughout. A lot of fun! (And pushchair friendly!)

Thanks very much!

great mystery trail, fun clues and beautiful London parks

Another great trail, taking you through some lovely bits of London and having fun solving clues on the way. The trail takes you on a lovely route near and through Regent's Park, including a secret garden I never knew existed! The mystery is really well designed and well worth stopping in the pub at the end to solve. Would thoroughly recommend for an afternoon's entertainment, exercise and nature-spotting.
