Introducing magical ‘Treasure Hunts Tours’ (THT) walking downtown CT or NY culminating in great food. Their mission is to get teens off screens and let adults be kids. These hyper-local scavenger hunts are not just about answering generic questions, they want teams to find hidden objects, meet special characters, and discover landmarks in their towns they didn’t know existed! Teams need to problem solve and be creative with pictures, drawings and video. THT check in with businesses beforehand, so they are prepared for excitable adults and children.
Each tour is bespoke and private, the team asks for a minimum of four weeks’ notice to perfect the plan. Co-Founder Kristen Mitrakis says: “We want each hunt to be captivating and memorable. Our team will brief the group beforehand - hunts normally last an hour and a half and end up at a suitable rendezvous venue we have sourced. We will be present at the destination venue to add up scores and announce the winning team or teams. For younger children, parents are welcome to chaperone - we can also plan a hunt in the local park or the privacy of your home.”
THT provide a complimentary consultation to understand your needs, personalize it and make it FUN. Each tour can be themed to suit your occasion - birthdays, anniversaries, Bar Mitzvahs, bachelorette parties or corporate team builds. Children’s Treasure Hunts start at $45 per child (minimum ten participants) Adult’s Treasure Hunts starts at $55 per adult (minimum ten participants) In addition, THT Concierge Service can provide the following:
- Invitations - we can design these to compliment the style of party and track RSVPs.
- A celebratory meal - from pizza, burgers and cake for kids to a food truck or canapés and a 3-course dinner with wine for adults.
