About this experience
Turn Albuquerque into a giant game board with this fun scavenger hunt adventure! This challenge combines the excitement of the Amazing Race with a 3-hour city walking tour. Guided from any smart phone, teams make their way among well known and overlooked gems of the city, solving clues and completing challenges while learning local history. The adventure begins in the heart Old Town and takes you on a well-designed course among historic buildings and churches, through outdoor sculpture gardens and over to the city’s art and science museums. Using a smartphone as “the guide” allows participants to start when they want and determine their own pace of play. Stop to enjoy the art and culture of the city or grab a bite to eat… 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.Note: Pricing is per individual, but teams must book together in order to be included in the same adventure.

Fulfilling
We could not find the Old Town Mosaic with the constellations for the longest time, we walked nearly all over old town but not the part it was in. We eventually found it and celebrated lots, feeling accomplished.
Response from the operator: Glad you located that and had fun on the Quest
via Viator
We had a blast!!
We had a blast doing the scavenger hunt. Everything was hard enough to be challenging, but easy enough that we figured it out. Great time!
Response from the operator: Whoo hoo. I’m so happy to hear that we hit the perfect balance with you and that you had a blast

Fun times with the family
One thing that was frustrating and held us back was the sundial was broken and it was very difficult to complete that task.

<p>This was a fun and different way to spend the morning. It took us around to different sites in Old Town Albuquerque so we could see and experience the area and know what places and activities we might want to spend more time with. The questions were hard enough to be challenging, but not so hard that we couldn't figure them out. It took us a little over 90 minutes, which I thought was just about perfect. I'll look for these in other cities we visit.</p>

Why this scores 58
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Albuquerque Scavenger Hunt Adventure: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Albuquerque.
How much does Albuquerque Scavenger Hunt Adventure cost?
+
Prices start at $49 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Albuquerque usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Albuquerque Scavenger Hunt Adventure take?
+
Plan for about 2.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Albuquerque is not rushed.
Is Albuquerque Scavenger Hunt Adventure worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 58 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4/5 across 5 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Albuquerque, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Albuquerque Scavenger Hunt Adventure?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Albuquerque Scavenger Hunt Adventure suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Albuquerque Scavenger Hunt Adventure?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Albuquerque can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Albuquerque and add a light layer if any part of the 2.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Albuquerque Scavenger Hunt Adventure start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Albuquerque within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Albuquerque?
+
Albuquerque is balloon country: sunrise flights over the Rio Grande valley, plus Sandia Peak tram rides, Old Town and Route 66 tours, petroglyph hikes and Breaking Bad location runs. Weather-cancellation policy is the thing to read before booking a flight. On Outty we rank every Albuquerque experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include 8pm ORIGINAL Ghost Tour of Old Town Albuquerque - since 2001!, Albuquerque Hot Air Balloon Ride at Sunrise, ABQ Trolley Co. | Best of ABQ City Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Albuquerque?
+
October for Balloon Fiesta, otherwise April to June and September to November. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Albuquerque?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
