The Atlanta History Center

The combination of indoor exhibits and outdoor re-creations of places and times past make this a location filled with a variety of experiences—there’s something for everyone. You’ll travel back in time as you discover startling trivia about the Civil War, the Centennial Olympics, Atlanta from pioneer times to the modern metropolis, the 19th-century Tullie Smith farm, gardens and even golf great Bobby Jones.

Along the way, you’ll discover the answers to such questions as...

• Find a fire drill in a place seemingly named by Scrooge. What is the name of the place where you might think fish spend the night? Trout House Hotel, in a photo of firemen in Humbug Square.

• Look into a place on Auburn where the counter man can set up you up with a Royalist. But bakers better beat it: according to the sign, what’s not allowed? A photo of the Auburn Avenue Smoke Shop, with the Royalist brand for sale, has a sign that says “No Loafing Allowed.”

• One jug can see its face in a mirror–yet it also can’t see its face in the mirror. What kind of person is it? It’s a two-faced politician jug.

You can opt for a ninety-minute or two-hour hunt, plus you can add Team Photo Challenges to spur creativity. For information about the Atlanta History Center, visit www.atlantahistorycenter.com. For more information about the hunt, contact us.

The Fernbank Museum of Natural History

Like our acclaimed hunts at the American Museum of Natural History, the Smithsonian Museum of Natural History and Chicago’s Field Museum, this hunt takes you on an exploration across millennia and around the world, revealing the most surprising aspects of the museum. You’ll be startled and amused—that’s why we call it The Museum of Natural Hysteria Hunt. The Fernbank’s compact collection in a dynamic space makes for an exciting ninety-minute hunt. For more information about the museum, visit www.fernbankmuseum.org. For more information about the hunt, contact us.

The Georgia Aquarium

Odds are that we don’t have to tell you how spectacular this aquarium is. After all, it’s merely the world’s largest. And as if sharks and whales and all manner of other exotic fish weren’t enough, the aquarium has added a new alligator exhibit to the mix. If you want to splurge, the aquarium offers a variety of options for a post-hunt party. For more information about the aquarium, visit www.georgiaaquarium.org.

The High Museum of Art

As on our acclaimed hunts at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the National Gallery of Art, the Art Institute of Chicago, the Boston Museum of Fine Arts, the Philadelphia Museum of Art, and L.A.’s Getty Center, this hunt brings you team building with a dash of culture. You don’t need to know anything about art to tackle our tricky questions—you just need a sharp mind, good teamwork and comfortable shoes. The expanded High Museum is a great place for a two-hour or ninety-minute hunt where you don’t have to worry about the weather. For more information about the museum, visit www.high.org.

Make it a mystery! We can customize this hunt to include an interactive murder mystery plot.

The Downtown Dash and Other Outdoor Locations

Almost any outdoor location can become a playing field for our hunts, with an unusual mix of questions and challenges that reveal the secret history, sights and wonders of the area. Hunters frequently say after our hunts such things that begin with such phrases as, “I had no idea that...” and “I thought I knew this area but not...” and “I walk here every day but never saw...” We’ll get you to explore and re-discover your favorite locations, all with a mix of questions that bring out the various skills of each member of your team. People who usually don’t even like games will find themselves drawn into the adventure. In addition to tackling tricky questions, you can also add Team Photo Challenges and other custom elements. To discuss the possibilities, contact us.
