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.

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!!!!

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!!

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!
