The International Spy Museum is pleased to offer a Spy-tastic hosted Scavenger Hunt Adventure! Go through our exhibition experiencing the SPY life--with code-breaking, deceptive maneuvers and more-- this action packed hunt will truly give you and your guests an event to remember. Participants, in teams, compete against each other and the clock as they navigate their way through the Museum, following clues, solving problems and decoding messages. Each team will be armed with a top secret bag of tricks to help solve challenging questions whose answers can only be found in the Museum's collection of artifacts, labels, and interactive stations.

Program Overview:
The Scavenger Hunts challenge teams to accurately answer 15 spy-crafty questions as quickly as possible. Upon your group's arrival, participants, who should already be assigned to a team, will test their spy knowledge with a speed-spy quiz which will determine who enters the Museum and begins the Hunt first. After completing the quiz, each team will be given the tools they need to complete the Hunt, including:

Teams will be given 1 to 1 ½ hours in the Museum to complete the Hunt: Once in the Museum, a spy-tingling covert operation requires revealing an invisible message, locating a concealment devise at a dead drop, and documenting the contents. As teams complete their mission, Museum staff will grade answer sheets for speed and accuracy to determine which team is on top. At the event's close, the MC will announce the results with prizes at your discretion.
