Indoor city tour scavenger hunt ideas
Not every city tour has to be outdoors — museums, market halls, and covered arcades make for a hunt that works rain or shine, with trivia and photo tasks built around exhibits and local history instead of street landmarks.
- ·Lean on plaques, exhibit info, and staff knowledge for trivia — it's more accurate than anything you'd write from memory.
- ·Multiple-choice works well here: "which of these three facts about this building is true" fits an indoor venue perfectly.
- ·Check the venue's photography policy before building photo tasks around specific exhibits.
1. What's the event?
2. Indoor or outdoor?
