More about our Parties treasure hunt...

What you get. Our treasure hunts are pre written so all you need to do is buy one and you're set with everything you need.

You can order a printed hunt which we will post to you, or you can buy a downloadable hunt to print yourself or view on smartphones, ipads, kindles etc. Hunts are available all year round (and probably much cheaper than hiring a tour guide)

How Long? The hunt will take up to two hours to complete. On lighter evenings, our hunts are an ideal after dinner activity.

Once you have completed your hunt, join our member's area and personalise and print your very own huntfun certificates!

Our Helmsley treasure hunts - what are they all about?

You are told where to start your treasure hunt, given simple directions to follow and a map of the area. In between directions you have things to hunt for by simply looking around on buildings, plaques, signs and statues etc. They are not a race and once you have your treasure hunt you are free to do it whenever you like.

When you have completed your treasure hunt why not mark the answers while having a cup of tea, an ice cream or how about a picnic on a sunny day :0) and if you visit the members area on our website you can personalize and print your very own huntfun certificates. (There is no actual treasure at the end by the way sorry!)

Wheelchair access.

The route is suitable for wheelchair users although there are some kerbs which are not dropped.

Buggy Friendly?

Buggies and prams will be fine if there is someone to help lifting up and down any steps but do have a look at the wheelchair notes too!
