    This activity is my favorite in Prescott, AZ! I really enjoy escape rooms, and this one combined great puzzles with fascinating historical insights about the town and sightseeing. The Puzzle Store, where we arranged our visit, offers an extensive variety of puzzles, including a fun assortment themed around Arizona, art, national parks, and other unique topics. I'm eager to return!rileighjo

    7. Scavenger hunt in Prescott

    3.0· 2 reviews· 2 hours

    A fun-filled, interactive scavenger hunt in Prescott — guided by a remote host through your phone, uncovering hidden gems and solving creative challenges.

    The person who arranged our tour was friendly, but there were significant issues. We were in Prescott, AZ, yet they mistakenly thought we were in Denver. Meeting at the coffee house was disappointing due to unclean bathrooms, though the area behind the building was charming, with a creek and seating. The tour involved searching for four stores and restaurants. One pizza place was closed, and another boutique left us unsure of what to do beyond taking a photo. The last store was also empty. Realizing this tour was poorly organized and outdated, we opted to explore on our own. We found interesting historical sites and engaged with locals, ultimately enjoying ourselves more without relying on this ineffective activity. Overall, it felt like a waste of money, so I advise against it. Prescott is lovely, though.L837BEkellyr
