Discover New Things to Do and See In Denver

Sept. 21, 2012 - PRLog -- Looking for a way to turn Denver into a giant game board?   Urban Adventure Quest has created an interactive scavenger hunt that combines the fun of the Amazing Race with a three-hour sightseeing tour of Denver.  

Guided from any smart phone, groups make their way among well-known and overlooked gems of the city, solving clues and completing challenges while learning local history.  The adventure begins at the state capitol and takes you on a well-designed course through some of Denver’s art and culture, among shops along the 16th Street Mall and through courtyards and buildings steeped in rich Denver history.  The tour requires approximately 2 miles of walking and uses the free 16th street mall transportation at one point in the game.  Using a smart phone as “the guide” allows participants to start when they want and determine their own pace of play.  Stop for lunch midway or an ice cream on the Mall… why not, it’s your schedule?  Offered at a fixed price for a group vs. per person pricing, this city tour/game offers a great value to those on a budget.

Urban Adventure Quest is different from other scavenger hunt tours in one critical way.  All route directions, hints and game information are provided to participants through the use of their smart phone.  The Company’s Web-based software guides teams during their Quest, while keeping track of points and time. Once a Quest is purchased, participants can play on their own schedule and at their own pace. The tour is purchased online for one low price for the entire group, regardless of the number of people, and lasts about 3.5 hours. Best group size is 4 to 5 people.

“As fans of the T.V. show, Amazing Race, we always wanted to take part in this type of adventure, but couldn’t take the time off from our “real jobs” to do so,” said the Urban Adventure Quest owners, Robbie Bos, Christie and Tami Walker. “Wouldn’t it be great if there was a way to experience the excitement and adventure of the Amazing Race in just one day?”

Whether you want to compete for a high score or simply use the Quest as a way to explore the city, you’ll experience Denver in a whole new way.
