AMSTERDAM TREASURE HUNT

Mystery City Games are a mix between a scavenger hunt,  escape room, and a self-guided walking tour.

It’s a bit like the Da Vinci Code or National Treasure – it’s about using clues hidden in the architecture of the city to solve a mystery. You can play competitively, but you can also relax and go your own pace, enjoying shops or cafés along the way.

It should definitely be included in your ‘top 10 things to do in Amsterdam’! No app or phone is needed – we think treasure hunts are more fun with real treasure maps, locks, and beautiful pieces. 

On May 10, 1940, the Netherlands was invaded by the Nazis. Within hours, a secret mission was undertaken to prevent the city’s priceless cache of industrial diamonds from falling into Nazi hands. Five years later, Amsterdam celebrates liberation. But you have one final mission: Discover what happened to the diamonds. Follow the trail left by the Dutch resistance to discover this true story!

• You will meet the Game Master at our Secret Headquarters next to the Waterlooplein to pick up a backpack containing all of the materials that you need to play: treasure maps, boxes, locks, and beautiful tools – this is not an app!
• Follow an ancient treasure map as you walk out of the touristic city center to the charming Plantagebuurt, the old Jewish District of Amsterdam. The route covers approx 3km and passes by five key sites in the old Jewish district: Rembrantplein, the Shadow Wall, Artis, the Portugese Synagogue, and a diamond factory.
• Solve puzzles while exploring Amsterdam with your friends or family on a holiday, bachelorette party, or weekend out. If you only have 1 day in Amsterdam, this is the way to see it!
• Learn true stories from the city’s history 

The price includes a two hour adventure through Amsterdam. The game set is in a bag and includes all the maps, books, locks and treasure box you need to solve the mystery.

Are you a curious and adventurous spirit? Are you looking for fun things to do in Amsterdam? Then Amsterdam’s best scavenger hunt is something for you!  They are a great idea for a family visit to Amsterdam, a date with someone special, a birthday party, or an event with your team.

The games were made for adults, but are a very fun thing to do with kids or teenagers too. Kids ages 6 and older can play when accompanied by an adult.
