What a brilliant way to spend a lovely sunny autumn day. Saw parts of Old Portsmouth we have never seen before, very interesting.

Thoroughly enjoyable day out. The book is so well researched and informative. We had a mixed age range so a fairly sedentary pace but I think would be fun as a team game/scavenger hunt type of thing as well.

We had such a lovely time exploring places we wouldn't necessarily have gone to. We didn't realise Portsmouth was so full of history, other than Nelson, of course. We're checking out where other mystery guides are based and will visit one of those towns just to have the fun solving the mystery.

Really enjoyed the clues and the fact that the walk wasn’t huge distances. Helped us explore an area of Portsmouth that we definitely would have overlooked
