About this Event

The Great Game Treasure Hunt Manchester is a unique outdoor treasure hunt.

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! At the pub you will receive discount off your bill. 

It's one of the best activities to do in Manchester or days out in Manchester you can find! :)

It can also be done as a Team Building Exercise or Corporate day out!


What to expect:

  • An exciting day out.

  • Exploring famous landmarks and secret back streets.

  • Challenge yourself with puzzles, riddles, codes and orienteering work.

  • If you are successful you will reveal where to draw the X on your treasure map to locate the treasure.

  • The treasure is a great pub at which you can receive 20% off your total food and drink bill.

  • We will book a table at the pub so it's ready and waiting when you arrive.


Single or Race route?

  • There are 2 routes that start at the same spot and finish at the same treasure pub.

  • They are the same distance and intertwine in parts.
