Savannah Waterfront: Pirate Adventure Walking Game

If you payed in advance, read the directions for unlocking the activity the night before you go. We found the website a bit difficult to navigate. Once we unlocked the activity, we ran out of time and had board our boat for home. Also, the name of the activity was different on the app than the title of tickets bought in advance.

Educational and fun way to learn about the historical sites near the river in Savannah. The story was interesting, as well. It was wel worth the $7.75 we paid on Vivator

It was so much fun! We did it yesterday for Mother’s Day. It was a little warm but there was a nice breeze on River St

Waste of time, you only need to buy one ticket, unless you want to share with other people. Also, it requires you to download app and create an account, which is way to much for this short activity. Also, we had construction limiting the completion of the activity, rendering it useless.

Perfect way to see some sites without the big price tag. We actually had met some locals on a ghost walk and they wound up doing this with us. It's a nice out of the box option for an outing.

This quest was very easy peasy, as I’ve come to Savannah many times and remember a lot of the history and places, and it served me well!

Several of the clues weren’t available and some of the directions couldn’t be followed- stairs closed. We made it work though and enjoyed what we could do. It was a fun way to see Savannah up close and personal. Strongly recommend all participants have fully charged phones and answer all questions- be sure to start at beginning. We had one phone lose juice and the other phone couldn’t pick up at that location. Required to go back to starting location.

Such a fun time! Lots of adventure walking and seeing a beautiful place.cant wait to do another quest. Great idea for future trips.

It was fun and informative. My 13 year old was able to solve most of the puzzles. My 9 year old liked to listen to the stories. It was disappointing that two of the puzzles weren’t available and hadn’t been replaced for adjustments that seem to have been long term closures.

My teens enjoyed navigating the app for the clues. The challenges we fun and just "hard enough" to make it worth while .

It was fun and kind of felt like the DaVince Code experience, rushing against time and running away from the baddies. Though…I did secretly want to be a pirate, but we chose to escape.

From the moment we began the "hunt" til we quit it was a time-consuming and confusing feat. We were just passing thru the city on a road trip with our 5 yr old and had little time to see the city. We thought this adventure would be fun. When we arrived at the meeting point that was linked with the game it was a restaurant and the host inside had no idea what I was talking about when I asked about the game. There was no one physically there to check my ticket so we had to just contact assistance thru the app. (Also there is no point in buying more than one ticket to save money if you're interested.) That helped and we were on our way. The game was fun at first but as we got further a long there were clues to landmarks that we couldn't find even with the maps with the game. Eventually it got to be close to dark and we called it quits because we didn't feel safe walking around at night in an unfamiliar city with our little one.

The game was good in theory, but poorly executed. There were multiple issues that left a lot to be desired. Unforeseen construction created issues getting to all the locations, forcing us to contact the app assistance to get the answer to the clue. The delay started the loss of interest in the game. Then, the clues that followed were not accurate to the changing landscape or could not be located at all, in terms of landmarks. Then the clues were impossible to follow because the routes were not clear. Lastly, the game had us backtracking to previous locations to progress, which was frustrating, going back literally feet from a previous clue. I expected it would continue in a linear fashion. By the time we were having to go back, we were no longer interested, but finished the game anyway. At least we got to see some sights and it was only $20. Caveat emptor….

My husband and I had a great time getting to know downtown Savannah, in a fun but laid-back and creative way.

The concept of this is truly genius. We got to sightsee Savannah and learn much about the city as the game took us to many historical spots. The puzzles were not. Often times we are trying to solve for X and the answer is Y. We found it very frustrating. One example was to unscramble the question below. We unscrambled it only to be told nope. We spent ten more minutes rewriting, capitalizing, etc. We finally gave up only to find out the answer was the answer to the question, not to unscramble the question.

We did this with 4 kids, ages 8-12. We had a lot of fun and they are looking forward to doing another. We enjoyed as parents because it was educational and we all learned something. It was something different to do. The only hiccup was a provided hint saying the answer rhymed with “charcoal”. The answer does not rhyme with charcoal, but rhymes with the word “otter”. Good luck, fellow pirates!

I had a good time. It was interesting but could have been a bit mute engaging by including audio or video.

Great way to learn some history about Savannah. You do walk around 2.2 miles, up and down stairs-but you won’t even notice!

We really enjoyed the Savannah Waterfront City Exploration Game. We had fun solving the clues while learning so much about Savannah. Great experience for all ages so families can have fun working together in solving clues. It took my group about an hour and a half to complete so we still had time to do and see other things in the city. My only suggestion is to have some type of prize or reward at the end of the adventure. It seemed to end very abruptly. Highly recommended!!

We really enjoyed the challenge of answering the questions while learning about Savannah through a fun narrative based on the cities history. Great fun for couples, families, and friends!
