Q&A
A: Good question! The scavenger hunt is self-guided, so if it rains, you can choose to reschedule for a nicer day. Just make sure to check the weather beforehand. It might be more fun to do it when it’s sunny, but if you’re up for the challenge, you can still do it in light rain—just wear a raincoat!
A: Definitely! The scavenger hunt is entertaining for a wide range of ages. Kids around 8 and up should be able to participate easily, and it’s fun for adults too! Just keep in mind that they’ll need to solve some puzzles, which could be challenging for younger ones.
A: You’ll walk about 0.7 miles total during the scavenger hunt. It’s not too strenuous, and you can go at your own pace. If you need breaks, just stop and enjoy the sights! Perfect for a casual stroll.

Thinking of gifting the Columbia Scavenger Hunt! Anyone tried it?
I’m looking at getting this scavenger hunt for my sister’s birthday. She’s in NYC and loves puzzles! I saw it’s free, which is awesome. But how long does it actually take? I heard it’s about an hour, but can you take longer if you wanna explore?
Columbia Scavenger Hunt—Do I need to book in advance?
I’m considering doing this scavenger hunt myself this weekend. Is it super busy? Do I need to reserve a time or just show up with the app? Don't want to miss out on a good day!
