We never made it because...
Tyna_C, Jun 2024
We never made it because there was no parking available and no directions for parking options. Very disappointed.
Response from Host, Jul 2024
Sorry you could not find parking in Boston. Not sure how we could help in that situation but it is too bad you did not get to experience the Quest.
Family Fun

Really fun way to explore a part of the city! Kept my 2 kids interested the whole time! Would have been helpful to have had more information before I purchased, for example one of the sites closes at 5pm so we were not able to enter but did not learn this until after paying. Also, it should mention in the description that it can take up to 2 hours after purchase before you are able to access the app. We wanted to do it right away. Fortunately, Christie at Urban Adventure Quest was super friendly and helpful.

Thanks for the review. Glad you had a great time on your Quest with you two kids!
It was fun and challenging!

The hunt was very fun and challenging. I just wish we’d had more time to go into some of the buildings, but we were limited because we had added other plans. History buffs should make this an all day event! Thank you for helping us to see your beautiful city!

Glad you had a great time on your fun Quest
Fun experience, clunky site
Kmendoza, Jun 2023
The site is a little clunky and I think it's a shame to charge per person. There was no further effort on UAQ's side so charging for 4 people felt a bit icky. It was also difficult to navigate to the leaderboard with lots of broken links but we got there in the end. (When I tried to enter our team name nothing happened.) All that said, the tasks were well written and not too easy which was great. We had a fun afternoon.

Glad you liked the actual Quest because that is what is special about our Company... We do need to update the website itself... we are looking into the links that were not working for you (have not had that comment before but will get to the bottom of it).
