     Looking for a way to turn Denver into a giant game board? Urban Adventure Quest has created a family-based scavenger hunt that combines the fun of the amazing race with a three-hour 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 teams 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. Register @ www.UrbanAdventureQuest.com. (less) ... Read more
