Canterbury Clue Hunt — A Medieval Mystery in the Heart of Kent
Solve clever clues, uncover hidden gems, and explore Canterbury’s cobbled streets — no phone, no Wi-Fi, just pure puzzle-solving fun.
Our Canterbury Clue Hunt is a self-guided, paper-based adventure that takes you through the city’s most beautiful and intriguing corners. Perfect for curious families, clever couples, and groups of friends who love a good brain-teaser with a side of history.
What Is the Canterbury Clue Hunt?
Part walking tour, part puzzle challenge, part “how did we miss that last time we were here?” moment.
Your Clue Hunt pack includes a beautifully illustrated booklet full of puzzles, riddles, and cryptic clues — all designed to lead you through Canterbury’s fascinating past and vibrant present.
No apps, no downloads, no batteries required. Just teamwork, curiosity, and maybe a pen that still works.
Each pack includes:
A carefully plotted map (about 2.5 miles / 4 km, 2.5 hours to complete)
Clever puzzles mixing history, observation, and wordplay
Hints and answers (for when your brain gets as twisted as a medieval alley)
Explore Canterbury’s Secrets and Stories
Canterbury is world-famous for its cathedral — but there’s so much more to discover. The Clue Hunt guides you through both iconic and overlooked corners, revealing little details most visitors miss.
Along the way, you’ll:
Decode clues around the Cathedral precincts (no divine intervention needed).
Solve riddles near Westgate Towers, the city’s ancient gateway.
Find hidden symbols in the King’s Mile, where shops and stories intertwine.
Crack a puzzle in Dane John Gardens, with sweeping views over the walls.
Follow In Chaucer’s footsteps, if he did in fact, actually ever visit Canterbury.
Every clue unlocks a new piece of Canterbury — its history, its humour, and its hidden side.
