Adventure tips

Charge your phone and bring a battery packThe entire experience runs through the Let’s Roam app; a drained phone stops the hunt, so carry a fully charged device and backup power.

Start early or late to avoid crowdsMidday foot traffic near plazas and market areas can slow progress and make photo challenges harder; mornings and evenings are quieter.

Wear comfortable, flat shoesExpect 1.5–2.5 miles on pavement with occasional stairs and curbs—stable footwear keeps the focus on clues rather than blisters.

Bring portable payment for coffee or tipsLocal cafés and galleries along the route welcome hunters who pause—buy a drink to rest and support neighborhood spots.
