If you want to skip the pub at the end you can as your discount won't expire and you can use it in the future when things go back to normal. 

We are rated 5/5 on Google and 4.5/5 on TripAdvisor!

The hunt will lead you around the city taking in all its famous landmarks and explaining a little bit of its history along the way.

You are given a treasure map, compass and clues to find your way along the route. If you are successful you will reveal where to draw the X on your treasure map to show the location of your treasure - a great pub!
