    Very good tour. Good history lesson. Finding parking can be hard. We ended up parking on the street. A little difficult to start it but we did figure it out.

    Lots of needless back and forth walking. Interesting facts. Quests were somewhat tedious. Only made it 41% thru before group lost interest.

    Fun way to explore Kingston with teenagers. Not too hard, not too much walking, interesting info. I am glad the other reviewers wrote about how to access the tickets or I would have thought it was as a scam with all the emails/ trying to access the tour. Also they said there was going to be a bonus question at the end about the number of red plaques, but there never was. Otherwise it was great!

    It was a battle of frustration booking and getting the instructions to start this tour. It should be made clearer that purchasing here will require you to purchase and use a coupon on the actual site which the tour instructions start! I found the information in my email and after wasting 30 minutes trying to figure it out leaving me angry with my family who were also getting impatient. Not a great start to a family day. Other then the rocky start, we truly enjoyed the tour. It was a lot of fun deciphering the codes and find the answers. What I truly enjoyed was that it took us to places I normally, even as a tourist I would not have noticed. Kingston has a lot of history and although we learned it all in High School, now as an adult and seeing how a lot of people are wanting to erase it, coming to actually walk and see where the birth of our beautiful country started makes you appreciate how there still are buildings and monuments still being preserved. I would recommend this tour. Really makes you look up. We did encounter a problem. We did count the red plaques but were never prompted to enter the number. And on the Cartwright answer, in the clue it should state that numbers don’t count.

    I love how interactive this experience was. The only puzzle I was confused on was counting the number of features of the facade of the pumphouse to get a 4-letter word. I think that one needs clearer instructions or a new way of reaching that word. Everything else was really fun!
