Tourism and partners
Give visitors a reason to take a closer look.
A puzzle hunt can connect landmarks, local stories and the details people hurry past. Talk to PuzzleDuck about a route for your town, attraction or venue.
The clues should belong to the place.
Landmarks, local stories and the details people hurry past.
1A familiar landmark
A reason to explore
Start with a place people recognise. Give them a reason to see it differently.
An example, not a playable route.
From local knowledge to a playable route.
Share your place
Tell us about the place, your audience and the stops you have in mind.
Shape the clues
Discuss the local stories, writing and media that could bring the route to life.
Agree the launch
Agree the schedule and support, including opening hours, permissions and access arrangements.
A little planning goes a long way.
The details depend on the route, your group and the day you have in mind.
A possible format
A visitor route could start at a familiar landmark, lead people towards less obvious details and finish near another place worth exploring. The clues should belong to that destination.
What to tell us
Tell us the place, audience and intended launch window. Share the stops you have in mind, local material you can provide and any opening hours, permissions or access constraints.
What to agree with PuzzleDuck
PuzzleDuck can develop the route and app-led prompts around the place. Discuss the content, access arrangements and ongoing support needed for your project.
What affects the price
The area to research, number of stops, custom writing and media, intended player numbers, schedule and agreed support shape the quote.
Practical questions
A few things to check before you set off.
How many people can do a hunt?
Capacity depends on the route, venue, timing, support, and format. Tell PuzzleDuck your expected headcount so the team can confirm what is practical for your brief.
How long does a hunt last?
Duration depends on the number and spacing of stops, challenge difficulty, group pace, and the booked play window. The public hunt page or booking details give the estimate for that route.
Where do hunts start?
For bespoke hunts, you can specify the start point or ask PuzzleDuck to recommend one. Public hunts show their route facts before play.
Are hunts entirely outside?
They are outdoor by default, but bespoke routes can include indoor stops such as galleries, museums, offices, venues, or on-site buildings when that supports the experience.
Does every player need a phone?
Phone requirements depend on the hunt format. The public hunt page or booking confirms whether each player needs the app. Anyone playing on a phone should bring it charged and have mobile data available.
What happens if the weather is bad?
Weather arrangements depend on the booking terms. Contact PuzzleDuck as early as possible to discuss rescheduling or other practical options.
How accessible are the hunts?
Public places can change because of roadworks, closures, or other local conditions. Share access requirements before booking so the proposed route and any known constraints can be checked and discussed.
What should players wear?
Wear clothing and footwear suitable for the route, forecast, and expected walking distance. Check the public hunt page or booking for route-specific advice.
