For the cost it wasn't worth it. Sounded like we would get more discounts or free items than we actually did. A plus, there were some neat historical things but all in all, not worth the money.

The adventure was challenging but fun. It reminded us not to take ourselves too serious, the skits and routines made us laugh and gave us a lifetime of memories.
Great experience. Very organized and we got to experience Lancaster from a whole new perspective (not Amish only). We really enjoyed the adventure and all the tasty treats along the way. Highly recommend.
Personally it wasn't worth the money spent. We also weren't able to get started until well after anticipated start time of 12pm due to lack of access on the app since the organizer didn't have it uploaded in the time originally anticipated. The video I watched said it would be available at 9am I messaged a little after 9am when I couldn't access the scanvenger hunt and I was told it would be up by 11am no worries since it started at 12pm. From 11am until 12pm I sent messages about there still be a lack of access, and it wasn't until I asked for my money back that they finally replied that it should be up now which was after 12pm. So it was almost 12:30pm when we finally were able to start.
We thoroughly enjoyed our scavenger hunt. We spent a lot of time laughing. There’s plenty of missions to go on, we didn’t get to do them all but it was certainly interesting. Make sure you have a sense of adventure should you decide to do this.
It was a fun hunt around town and not too difficult for us to complete. If you are wanting to take your time at each stop, be advised you will not complete the full hunt in 3 hours. It was a fun time to see the town of Lancaster and learn some history along the way.
Wow, this was a really fun activity to do in downtown Lancaster. We don’t know the area well so we thought it might be hard but it was so fun and really enjoyable. We earned food and desserts plus various merch from local shops. I like how we got to learn lots of Lancaster History while having fun. The app was easy to use and there was even a cute video to help us figure out what to do prior. The host texted us immediately after the event started to say she was available to help throughout the experience. I hope she recreates more of these in other cities.
We had to much fun collectively as a group. My most favorite part was navigating Lancaster city finding different cute places. Having the reward of the hunt! Our whole team enjoyed this experience being together and solving clues and riddles. All the shops and vendors were very polite and eager to serve us.
None,to hard when your not used to city,and was listed as downtown litiz was very disappointed for the price we had to pay
The Lancaster scavenger hunt was so fun. It was just a little too long. I think 2 hours would have been good. I also think it would have been nice to receive a prize at the end.
We had a fun time! There are plenty of tasks to do and the app was great! There is a decent amount of walking. We didn't mind it bc we like walking but if you get tired easily you'd have a harder time
Had a great time, lots of fun activities and puzzles to solve. PLUS we got rewards for solving some of the clues. I was skeptical at first but it was very worth the time and money. I look forward to trying some of the other activities Unique Lancaster Experience offers!
I have been to Lancaster many times but never spent any time downtown. This scavenger hunt gave me the opportunity to visit many different places and meet new people!
Kendra and her team bring dazzling life to every moment on this tour and care about getting to know you. Solo experiences can be a bit nerve wracking for me but they made me feel so welcome.
This turned out to be more stressful than fun. If you are not a Lancaster local, a lot of the questions/trivia are very hard and almost impossible to figure out. We had to call the host for some answers after we spent almost an hour on one question. We also think some of the questions are outdated because a few of the items we were told to find were not there anymore. You have a 3 hour time limit which we felt like took the fun out of exploring the city because we were just focused on trying to finish all the tasks in time instead of noticing all the different places we were passing. I was under the impression from the description that we would be told where to go and then there would be a puzzle to solve at that location. However, the puzzle WAS figuring out where to go, which is why it was so hard. I'm assuming if you are a local it might be easier. Overall, there were some cool stops on the hunt and it did get us exploring. but we didn't really find ourselves enjoying our time until we stopped trying to solve the puzzles and just explored ourselves. If you are looking for a fun, stress free exploration of the city, this is not the activity for you. But if you are looking for a challenging way of exploring it, then this might be what you are looking for.
This was awesome! We had so much fun walking around the city and finding clues! A great way to spend an afternoon and learn more about Lancaster and it’s local business
This was such a terrific experience! I loved exploring downtown Lancaster, and solving unique clues. Many laughs and good memories made!
We don’t realize that we were completely on our own except for the phones. Had to rely on phones completely and was hoping for a less electronic activity
When you can spend the day laughing and getting lost with your friends, this is a great challenge. We are from out of town so we’re not familiar with anything. We never got passed step 5 in the 3 hours but had a memorable blast. We plan to try it again with more friends to help.
We had a super fun and memorable day on this scavenger hunt. The activities were so fun and unexpected. It was so much fun! Kendra was a super host, helpful and attentive. We would definitely do this again!!
