What's involved

If you’re looking for a unique way to explore the historic city of Nottingham whilst hunting for clues and solving puzzles, then Treasure Hunt Nottingham has just the experience for you!

Meet Captain Bess, a pirate on the lookout for new recruits and she thinks you might have what it takes! You’ll be armed with maps, clues, and directions to guide you across the city. And if you get stuck, don’t worry. Bess will be there with helpful hints when you need them.

Starting just by Nottingham’s Old Market Square, the treasure hunt is designed to give you a thorough tour of this fascinating city, famous for its links to Robin Hood and rich history.

Explore the Park Estate, wander through the Lace Market, now a trendy neighbourhood filled with stylish bars and indie shops. And maybe take a pitstop at Ye Olde Trip to Jerusalem, an ancient pub built into stone caves with a charming, wonky interior and resident ghosts.

Your hunt will finish with a score from Bess, but remember, it’s not a competition.

Take your time, enjoy the journey with your friends and, most of all, have fun!

Great way to spend an afternoon! Everyone very much enjoyed it, would highly recommend :)

Lucy

Really fun and a great way to see some amazing buildings

Donna

Amazing way of exploring a city, it was so fun to work out all the clues whilst exploring and also getting history information at the same time. The tour took us in places that we will for sure have missed otherwise. Recommended!

Cristina

It was great fun. Totally recommend to get to know the city.

Andreina

Good fun! Got an answer wrong due to wording which upset some competitive members of our group but still had a great time!

Katie

Really good fun and, even having lived in Oxford 10 years, I saw things and places I'd never seen. The clues were stretching (even for residents!) But not to the point of despair - the right balance. One suggestion would be to have an app with notifications. Also allow joint submissions / credit. However a great way to spend my 40th. Fantastic in fact! 😁
