Halloween Punt and Hunt

Our scavenger hunt and activity book is an exclusive Halloween treat that you can add to your punting experience with the Traditional Punting Company this October half term. Your family can have a spooktastic experience in the historical centre of Cambridge learning about the ghosts and ghouls that roam the river and cobbled streets for only an additional £2.50 per child.

Halloween 2024, here we come! The hunt consists of a series of questions, some take place on the river as part of your punting tour, and the rest takes place around the city. So dress up and come join us for a family-fun spooky Halloween.

This Halloween scavenger hunt and activity booklet is inclusive for all the family, not only does it include questions for the kids but there are also parent prompts so everyone can be involved in hearing the scary tales of Cambridge.

All of the questions will take you to the most haunted places around the city, where you will search for spirits, monsters, witches and so much more!

If you successfully complete the Halloween scavenger hunt there will be a sweet treat (no tricks involved) waiting for you from Hardy’s sweetshop, a reward for all of your efforts. So book now and get hunting!

The hunt & activity booklets are available as an Add-On once you have selected your punting tour. Please make sure that you are booking between the 26th of October and the 3rd of November for this Halloween add-on to appear. Select the number of booklets you would like to purchase – we do recommend that each child has one so they can all complete the activities and receive their prize together.
