A great day out finding out all the interesting information hidden around Sheffield we didn’t know 😃. From aged 6yrs to 69 yrs we all thoroughly enjoyed looking for the clues. We stopped off at Joni’s in Keelhaulers island for a delicious lunch halfway thru the treasure hunt. A great day out on a lovely dry day. And now a great idea to buy for other friends and family for next years Christmas presents so they can all enjoy a great day out just like we did. Well done Ian and Paul 👍.

Really enjoyed the format of text messsge style with dialogue, clues and maps to guide us along our route around Sheffield city centre and Kelham Island. I noticed things new things in my city and my visitors thoroughly enjoyed their unusual sightseeing trip. I obviously read all the messages out to them in my best pirate accent. Would definitely do in other cities.

Good fun hunt which took us to some interesting places around Sheffield, having lived here for 10 years we still found some new spots to explore. Good value for money too if you're in a group.

We had a great experience doing the Sheffield Treasure Hunt. We got to know a lot of new and interesting facts about the city and we'd really recommend this activity to everyone.

We really enjoyed the treasure hunt round Sheffield, we got to see parts of the city we would have otherwise missed while learning about the history and having fun solving the clues.

A very enjoyable treasure hunt. A good way of seeing the city after 40 years away, many photos taken and memories made. Thank you Paul and Ian

Had an amazing day and pub crawl around Sheffield. The clues are brilliant and learnt so much we didn’t know. Would definitely recommend 😁

My best friend Ali and I absolutely loved doing this treasure hunt! We wanted to do something original and inspiring for the morning and this did not disappoint! We learnt interesting facts, discovered beautiful places/ things and tbh we fell in love with Sheffield again (We’ve both been here since uni and have been feeling disheartened about the state of the city centre in particular). Thank you so much for bringing us joy and enhancing our day! (I am going to do it again with my niece and nephew when they visit..)

I found myself in Sheffield with nothing to do (long story sort - gig cancelled, train and hotel non-refundable). I stumbled across Treasure Hunt Sheffield, I chose this one because it said it would take about 3 hours, it was accessible / wheelchair friendly and I could do it in my own time. I'm not a wheelchair user but I have joint problems which make walking a challenge. This was the perfect 'hunt' and ticked all my boxes. It revealed many hidden gems around the centre of Sheffield. If there was a part of the trail that was a bit difficult you were given a simpler route. I struggled with the first clue while I got into their mindset but then I was off. The clues were challenging but not impossible and it really tested your powers of observation. Along the route you are told the history of the location and you get suggestions of places to stop for a break. I didn't finish it all on the same day as rain stopped play but I got a friendly email asking if everything was OK, and a link to restart the hunt when I was ready. I managed to finish the following day. I met up with family and couldn't wait to show them what I had seen around the city they live in. They've lived there for many years and didn't know half of what I had come across. I highly recommend it. I've added some photos but tried not to give anything away!

Hello! American tourist here… this treasure hunt was an absolute gem. These two gents have created a masterpiece of a riddle to learn about the city of Sheffield and enjoy a nice walk. I completed the hunt with my mum and it has been an amazing experience. I highly recommend doing this. I never thought I’d be interested in the history of a city but when you realize how many pieces of history are laying around you while you walk through a city like Sheffield it really opens your eyes and your world. It’s quite amazing and I highly recommend doing this.
