We always love a good adventure and love a way to see a the bits of the city we never usually see ! It was a trek to get to the Java bar …and then we confused ourselves with the first clue 🙈🙈 And I thought ‘this is difficult!’ ….but we blooming loved it ….. My hubby and I worked together…errr or we would have killed each other 😂 and thoroughly enjoyed the day. We did nip back to the hotel in between clues and stopped at numerous pubs …but we needed to, so we could go over the clues 🕵️♀️ It was fab ….do it … Oh yes and we solved it !! 😂Absolutely brilliant. We thoroughly enjoyed it yesterday. An excellent way to see the city centre and its history whilst having fun.

Found out about lots of things didn't even know about. Age range was 12 -72 and we all loved it. Would 100% reccomend and can't wait to do Liverpool?
