Scavenger Hunt

What a awesome activity to do and get out and about in Taupō. The clues are straight foward but fun, and it’s just enough to sight see but not get too tired. Definitely enjoyed and would recommend to others and come back to do other activities

Thank you for the 5 star review, Tequila! It's awesome to hear you had a great time on our scavenger hunt. Its's definitely one of the best ways to take a tour around taupo. ;) - The Confinement Taupō Team

best for locals or familiar with the area

We started off doing the scavenger hunt but found it too difficult as we are not familiar with Taupo and being able to find simple landmarks was frustrating and time consuming. We returned to HQ and swapped to an escape room instead - the hunting room. Really enjoyed the escape room and the staff were very friendly and accommodating to change us over.

Hi Kathryn, Thank you so much for your 5-stars, we are thrilled to hear even though the Scavenger Hunt didn't quite work out, the Escape Room did! Thank you again for your feedback! Kind regards, The Confinement Taupō Team
