Treasure Trails Reviews 

We have completed many Treasure Trails over a number of years and found them enjoyable and challenging whether done as a couple or a group of friends. Preferring to work from a paper copy, we find the printed trail attractive and user friendly.
Our most recent buys are slightly different - a driving trail and a longer walk - and both look interesting.

My only criticism is of the length of time taken for a printed trail to arrive by Second Class Royal Mail. The TT website advises a few days but our recent trails took 2 weeks to arrive. In the meantime TT had sent out replacements by First Class mail but in spite of their efforts one trail arrived the next day, one arrived 2 days later. I was advised that once trails are in the post TT have no means of tracking them.

Having had an identical experience at the end of 2025, we would recommend that you order printed trails at least 3 weeks before you plan to use them.

This is a great way of seeing things in a place you already know and still having your eyes opened.

Plenty of information on the site before choosing and posted items arrived promptly

We recently bought a treasure trail mystery for Pickering in North Yorkshire and am sorry to say it fell short of our normal experience. For those that don't know you start off in the Ropery car park, which costs £3.80 for 2 hours. Whether refurbishment of signs has recently taken place, finding clue one was very difficult and I'm not sure we found the answer. You then proceed on a figure of eight course around Pickering with some clues again difficult to find. Also recent road works along the trail do make walking on pavements difficult/ dangerous so please be careful as you navigate round.
All in all not upto the normal trails we've enjoyed before so cannot help but give this one only 3 stars.

Fabulous summer evening solving the crime in Wargrave .
Clues were well described and taxed our brains !

It is great to get to know a new place quickly, and to become aware of things you wouldn't normally notice....and becomes a fun activity for the group.
We automatically but one when we are spending time in a new venue.

The clues and additional information gives you the opportunity to see and know things about a place you are visiting that otherwise you would probably miss. They are ideal for children and adults alike.

We have completed 5 lived them all

As always, TTs give an interesting insight into the history and geography of the area being explored. The clues are designed for anyone of any age to enjoy - and there is always somewhere for a welcome drink and something to eat along the trail. The trail always inspires further research when back at home.

Great fun in interesting locations.

We didn’t need any children with us to love our Staithes treasure trail. We had a lovely time finding our way around the village, guided by the trail and chatting to a few Staithes locals along the way.

No warning that hints were limited to 5. Some clues were impossible.

We have a great time visiting and learning about different areas of London

We had a wonderful day.....visiting places we wouldn't have known about.....the clues were brilliant.....thank you......

A very enjoyable afternoon spent discovering Topsham. Lots to see and interesting areas to visit. The area by the River was great. One problem we faced was getting started, the directions were not
Clear to us but we picked up the Trail as we headed to the Town Centre.

Treasure Trails app showed us some amazing hidden gems in St Ives, Cornwall. The mystery story was fun and kept us all engaged which allowed for a great family afternoon seeing parts of the town that we would not have otherwise.

We love a treasure trail.

Finding unusual things about Bath and working through the cryptic clues of the trail. One nearly got us stumped towards the and then se read the clue again!

Very helpful and ensured I received my Treasure Trail.

I was given a Treasure Trails book for a present and really enjoyed following the trail. I have also done another with my daughters and, again, it was very interesting and enjoyable. I have now purchased a Treasure Trails book for a friend. The website was easy to follow and delivery was very quick.
