Great way to see the city
I've done several scavenger hunts but never one from this app. I loved the amount of history and that it has a link to open my maps app. It was not very clear about where to go for each clue though. I have used other apps that utilize GPS and have a chime that tells you you're in the right spot for the clue. We did have to use the hints several times to make sure we were in the right spot for the scavenger hunt. I also wish it ended somewhere closer to something to do and not so out of the way. I know it said we could do the stops in any order but I like to see how it was intended to be played.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much Gabriel! 😊 We're glad you loved the history and the maps integration in Savannah! Your points are genuinely useful: a GPS chime to confirm you're at the right spot, clearer directions per clue, and thought given to where the route ends. We'll pass all three to our team as we keep improving. And you're right that stops can be done in any order, but we love that you wanted to experience the intended flow. We hope to welcome you on another adventure in a different city soon! 🗺️

Family Scavenger Hunt
It was a great chance to see Savannah, learn some history and solve puzzles as a group. We walked from Forsyth Park to River Street.
Response from the operator: 😊 Thanks so much for your lovely review! We’re delighted that your family enjoyed exploring Savannah together, learning some history, and solving puzzles along the way. Walking from Forsyth Park to River Street sounds like a great way to experience the city! We hope to welcome you in another city soon! 🗺️

It was nice, took you all...
It was nice, took you all over. If you can’t walk much I wouldn’t recommend this, and I would park close to the river
Response from the operator: 😊 Thanks for your honest review, Eric! We’re glad you enjoyed exploring Savannah and that the route took you all around the city. We also appreciate the practical tip about parking closer to the river, and your note about the amount of walking will be helpful for future participants planning their day. We hope to welcome you in another city soon! 🗺️

Waste of time and money
I felt like something was missing from the experience. We didn’t get clues and I could have done the same thing by using Google maps going from place to place. It was not at all what i was hoping for in a scavenger hunt. Save your money.
Response from the operator: Thank you for your feedback and we're sorry the experience didn't meet your expectations in Savannah. We're surprised to hear about the clues as every booking includes the full interactive experience with puzzles and audio at each location. It's possible there may have been a technical issue or a confusion with the start of the game — we wish you had reached out to us during the activity as we're always available to help in real time at worldcitytrail.com/chat. We'd love the chance to make this right for you and show you what our experience is really about. 🗺️

Good overall
Great idea - a couple of the landmarks are under construction unfortunately (fountain and basilica), but it was nice to have extra ideas of places to go and visit. We were only there for one day, so this was helpful. Also, we weren't sure if there was a way for it to automate a new ideal route once we deviated from the initial suggested route (due to lunch) - there may have been, but it wasn't obvious to us. It was a nice experience.
Response from the operator: 😊 Thanks so much for your honest review! We’re glad you enjoyed the idea of the scavenger hunt and found it helpful for discovering extra places to visit during your day in Savannah. We’re sorry that construction affected a couple of the landmarks, and we appreciate your feedback about the route not being obviously updated after taking a lunch break. We’ll pass both points on to our team to help improve the experience. 🗺️

Savannah Scavenger Hunt & Highlights Self-Guided Walking Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Savannah.
How much does Savannah Scavenger Hunt & Highlights Self-Guided Walking Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $3 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Savannah usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Savannah Scavenger Hunt & Highlights Self-Guided Walking Tour take?
+
Plan for about 2 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 Savannah is not rushed.
Is Savannah Scavenger Hunt & Highlights Self-Guided Walking Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 62 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.5/5 across 12 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Savannah, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Savannah Scavenger Hunt & Highlights Self-Guided Walking Tour?
+
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 Savannah Scavenger Hunt & Highlights Self-Guided Walking Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Savannah Scavenger Hunt & Highlights Self-Guided Walking Tour?
+
Around 4 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 Savannah 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 Savannah and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Savannah Scavenger Hunt & Highlights Self-Guided Walking Tour 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 Savannah 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 Savannah?
+
Savannah is a walking city with a dense guide market, which means quality spread is wide. Historic district walks, Bonaventure Cemetery trips, trolley hop-on routes and ghost tours with tavern access make up most bookings. Outty Ranking leans on licensed-guide status and group size, since the squares get loud once a tour passes twenty people. On Outty we rank every Savannah experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Bonaventure Cemetery Walking Tour with Transportation, Historic Savannah Guided Walking Tour, Haunted Savannah Booze and Boos Ghost Walking 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 Savannah?
+
March to May for azaleas, or October to November for cool evenings. 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 Savannah?
+
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.
