Enjoy talking to strangers
Paige_D, Feb 2024
Not what we were expecting for a “scavenger hunt” that we were hoping would get us acquainted with downtown Kona’s scenery. Instead of finding statues, buildings or landmarks with fun clues, it felt more like homework. I am an introverted person and was not thrilled when 85% of the tasks were to go talk to strangers. It would have been fun to have a real clue about places to go rather than “do a random act of kindness”. Not the activity for us.
Response from Host, Feb 2024
It is true that this scavenger hunt is very non traditional with no math, geocaching or gps points. Instead it has creative challenges, social experimentation and being detectives on the hunt for local stories. My games are designed to allow real opportunities to connect with friendly locals( I recommend what i call the vibe test first) and have meaningful interactions. This can be the most valuable part of the experience for many or even most of my hunters. It is true that coming to a place as a tourist and thinking of how you can do a random act of kindness is a powerful way to get to know a place. I understand it can be challenging in a new way and every hunter is told its ok if they want to skip something. People also choose which order to do the clues so you can definately start with the creative non social ones.I am sorry this guest didnt enjoy the adventure as much as I hope all my guests do but I will admit its not for everyone. If you want to book I would love to host you but come with an open mind for something new.
REMOTE GAME. MISCOMMUNICATION. NOT GREAT.
Tammy_T, Aug 2022
I can only give this 2 stars for flexibility of date/time change, fast communication. Notes, DO NOT go on other activities of the day if you book this game. I booked this game for a wrong date accidentally; texted Tara the host at 2 AM Hawaii time due to my California time jet lag. She seemed upset that she had to respond to my message when she just woke up at 6am her time…that’s nice of her but I didn’t think she’d respond right away, then said she isn’t open to answering calls, emphasizing most business opens at 9am :/ I mean my bad. However, my mistake for booking a 3 hours snorkeling and kayaking for all morning that date and somehow the time alignment with this game was off. On Viator said 2:30pm and misunderstanding between me and Tara created more complications, so I didn’t feel like participating this game anymore and didn’t get a refund either. For a business perspective, I understand Tara frustration with me changing the date and the time last minute but Tara isn’t in Kona. She remotely directs this game via WhatsApp. What a smart way to earn money really. If you decide to book this, just be careful on booking the date & time correctly. I think you’ll have a very good time. Just don’t be like me LOL.
Response from Host, Aug 2022
This booking with Tammy Tran went poorly from the beginning when she booked the wrong date and felt the need to call me(yes it was a phone call and several texts) in the middle of the night to change it. Of course I was scared it was a family emergency to be shocked awake.. when i found out it was just to ask for a free date change, i did accommadate her but told her I could do noon the next day.She agreed and i rearranged my schedule.. while its true i host my games remotely I do set aside two hours for each game as I am a game show host in your pocket and interact the whole time with the guests. She then asked me to start at 2.30, and once again I rearranged my schedule to suit her. 20 minutes before the game start she canceled! so, no, no refund would be offered. I have to say i do love my work.. i love hosting scavenger hunts. I love sharing amazing places with my hunters. but a guest like this is really discouraging to me.. not only did i change the schedule for her twice, got a call in the middle of the night, but she felt she needed to try to harm my business with a 2 star review for a scavenger hunt she never did.
Finding the Other Kona

We enjoyed finding the information about the Palace, the statue and a mural. Creating a decoration out of natural items was a challenge!
Response from Host, Aug 2022

Fun in the Sun
Jessica_O, Jun 2021
It was a lovely experience that got us out in the town and acquainted with some of the local lore. Tara was very responsive and easy to communicate with. We had a great time and I’d recommend it.
Response from Host, Jun 2021
You were such a creative team! The art piece you created went so far beyond what most people do it was a real honor to be part of its creation. Thank you! I hope to host you at one of my other Hawaii locations including The Volcano Park, Kauai, The Murals of Oahu and my brand spanking new Maui hunt.
