It’s that time of year again, looking for the perfect way to show your mum how great she is. Give her the perfect gift this year- an afternoon with you! Put the chocolates back on the shelf and add a Treasure Hunt Cambridge game to your basket!
Take your mum on an adventure this Mother’s day with a trip into town to play Treasure Hunt Cambridge It’s a fun way to spend some quality time with Mum, getting out the house and making memories together. Gift vouchers are available too, so you can decide together when to go: get yours here.
“Finding an activity for 3 boys aged 11-15 can be challenging, but all three enjoyed this well-paced puzzle-based walking tour of Cambridge. The clues seemed about the right level of difficulty, and we never found ourselves stuck for more than a few minutes. The use of phones worked well, and wasn’t distracting. The eldest was quite chuffed with himself for nailing the final clue!”
It’s designed for adults, so you’ll have a laugh together (ages 8+ are welcome too if you want to make a family day of it).
You’ll be testing out your essential pirate skills - following treasure maps, solving cryptic clues, and looking carefully around the city to find the answers. You’ll all be led around the city by a bossy pirate character who sends messages to your phones.
Don’t worry, there’s plenty of time for stops along the way if Mum rebels! We’ve planned a carefully designed route that passes some of Cambridge’s best pubs and cafes so you won’t go thirsty.
Half-way around, you'll find The Eagle pub. This atmospheric establishment has served as a gathering place for locals and scholars alike for centuries. For something softer, we'd recommend Fitzbillies Tearooms. This iconic cafe is full of delicious bakery treats.
You’ll find some useful info for your voyage here.
What’s more, if you’re disorganised like me and you’re reading this on Sunday morning, no problem! You can book last minute, unlike all restaurants which are all booked up.
“So much fun, and an incredibly well though-out course. The riddles and clues were great, and we had a lovely time! Would definitely recommend to everybody.”
