Need an idea for your next birthday. This is it! Booked this for my daughter's 14th birthday scavenger hunt at the mall. The girls all had a blast running through the mall trying to complete all the dares. Some of the stores even helped out to ensure they completed the dare. I will definitely be rebooking them for future birthday plans.

Completed an amazing Quest with business colleagues this week and what I thought would be an eyeroll quickly became a competitive and hilarious scavenger hunt. Learned a lot about my colleagues and laughed hysterically through it all. I HIGHLY recommend this if you want to get to know people better and especially if you want to beat your other colleagues! No end to the creativity shown!

We had a blast for our kiddo's 13th birthday party! The photo assignments were so funny and the kids had a great time romping around the neighborhood. Chris and his team were excellent communicators and helped make sure every detail was covered. Totally recommend this company and experience!

My team hosted a virtual event with Frogquest Scavenger hunt recently, and it was a blast! Chris and the Frogquest team were great from the start, with clear directions and instructions as well as a detailed timeline that helped me share the news with our team effortlessly. My team had such a great time with the event, creating great memories. The challenges were creative and just goofy enough that everyone had a laugh. It was a great experience overall and worked well within our budget.

Very fun events with FrogQuest!. The people who run the events keep them interesting and not over-organized. There is plenty of time for the scavenger hunt and the end slideshow and awards are a great payoff. Good team building for work events and I'd imagine would be fun for group friends and/or family events as well.

I did my first FrogQuest recently as part of a company team-building event and found it expertly organized, creatively challenging, and an absolute blast. Our team enjoyed it thoroughly and I hope we'll do it again. I'll also be seeking any other opportunities to do one (my next birthday?). Seriously good. I highly recommend.
