Posted on November 1, 2024

A group of friends walking away from a Christmas market on a treasure hunt

Need a little holiday magic? Right this very minute? Treasure Hunt York might just become your favourite new tradition! With twinkling lights and bustling Christmas markets popping up around the country, could there be a better time to see York in a whole new way? Or perhaps you’re looking for a unique Christmas gift that stands out – we’ve got just the thing. Read on to discover our gift vouchers!

This year, instead of three Christmas spirits, let our Bess be your guide! She’ll take you on a journey through York’s past and present with a mix of history and mystery.

As you explore York’s enchanting streets, dressed in holiday style, you’ll soak up the Christmas atmosphere. Our treasure hunt route shows you the highlights of York, along with hidden gems that others miss. Part tour and part game, Bess, our friendly pirate host, sends cryptic clues to your phone – mysteries to solve at every turn.

Feel free to take the treasure hunt at your own pace; stop for a mulled wine or a Bratwurst along the way – it is Christmas, after all! Can’t wait to kick off your holiday season? [Book your adventure here!]

York is magical at any time of the year, but Christmas is extra special. Our game runs parallel to the market lining Parliament Street and St Sampson’s Square so you can pause your adventure for a festive browse before continuing your quest toward Merchant Adventurers hall.

Organising the work do? 🍻🎄

If you’ve still not sorted out your Christmas party, a treasure hunt could be just the thing. Do it as a group, or split into teams – who will solve the final clue first? Last team to the pub gets the round in!

A brilliant gift idea - in 16 cities 🎁🎅

This year been a busy blur? If you’re after a unique gift for those hard-to-buy-for folks, our gift vouchers might just save the day.

A gift voucher for Treasure Hunt York

We’ve got treasure hunts in loads of great cities, so wherever your loved ones are, they’ll be close to an adventure!

We’ve had some delivered especially from the North Pole, from the big man himself (he knows our Bess–they go way back apparently!) They’ll look the business tucked into a stocking or under the tree, and don’t worry – we’ve got plenty. You can even print them at home or send them electronically for last-minute surprises!

“We thought the clues were pitched at the correct level, not too easy and made you look very closely at your surroundings, without being impossible to solve.
We had a fun day exploring York with a few pit stops for refreshement between clues.”
