FAQs

No! Just as no two cities are the same, neither are these experiences. You’ll get three new physical puzzles to solve, new characters to meet and new routes to unlock wherever you decide to race!

We’ve taken what you love most about the show - competition, discovery and suspense, and thrown in some surprises along the way.
You’ll find core elements of the show like budgeting, strategising and teamwork, just wrapped up in a fast-paced, high stakes foot race!

Race Across The World: The Experience is a live adventure split into three legs.

You’ll race entirely on foot, and how you get to and from checkpoints will be decided by your in-game choices. You’ll also solve physical puzzles, “buy” directions using in-game currency and discover hidden gems along the way.

That’s for you to decide! Either sign up as a group and split into teams to race head-to-head, or stick as a group and compete against the overall leaderboard.

Whatever you choose, this is a private experience and you’ll only be playing with people who you want there.

We are committed to making the experience as accessible and inclusive as possible. With this in mind we have designed the experience to include the following elements:
● Multiple route options catering to a broad range of needs including but not limited to: wheel-chair accessible routes, routes optimised for those with sight impairments such as colour blindness, audio-free routes for those with hearing loss.
● Players will interact with the experience through their own devices, ensuring they are familiar with the interface they are using, and its settings are tailored to their needs.
● Free tickets are available for accompanying carers/support workers - please email [email protected] for these.

Absolutely! The experience is designed so children of all ages can participate in the game, when accompanied by an adult. The minimum age to purchase the experience is 18+.

We release tickets in seasons. Stay tuned to find out when more tickets drop and where the experience is available to play!

The experience lasts about 2-3 hours and, along the way, you’ll have the chance to rest up at checkpoints (the race timer stops!). Allow more time if you want to spend longer at checkpoints.

We recommend arriving at the start location at least 15 minutes before your scheduled start time.

The Experience is a foot race, and involves 2-3 hours of walking across 5 kilometres (3.1 miles).

If you want to run, we won’t stop you–but if you’d prefer to take your time and soak up the sights, we support that decision too! No matter your speed, you’ll get the chance to relax, grab refreshments and rest up at checkpoints.

Once your game begins, the clock begins! You’ll be notified when the timer is paused for the optional breaks, so feel free to relax there.

If you’d prefer a leisurely walk, no problem, ignore the timer! It’s your race!

Unfortunately not, the experience is completed on foot in London/Manchester. That said, you’ll walk about 5 kilometres (3.1 miles) in total, and you’ll be amazed at the different areas you’ll visit and cultures you’ll find!

No, sorry locals! You’ll need to put your thinking caps on as firmly as non-locals to win this one.

You need no local knowledge, and if you have any, it won’t be of much use to you. You’ll be navigating between checkpoints on foot, and it’s all about discovering and making choices that affect your race.

The experience is perfect for couples, groups, friends, families, birthdays, stag-dos, hen parties, corporate events and team building days.

You’ll only play with your team(s), although you may see others racing nearby! If you are a large group please reach out to [email protected] and we’ll help with the booking.

The only people this experience isn’t designed for are solo adventurers because it’s all about teamwork.

Each team has a minimum of 2 people and a maximum of 8. This is to make sure that everyone has a great time and can get involved with the game.

For group bookings (more than 2 players), we recommend one person should book on behalf of all players. Once booked, you will be able to split players into desired teams.

Aha! Trying to plan ahead are we? Well, unfortunately for you, just like in Race Across The World, you’ll only be able to be one step ahead of the game at any given time.

Rest assured, we’ve found some incredible places for you to explore, and all of them are located within Central London.

You’ll only ever be playing with your team(s) on your booking, although you may see some other groups dashing around looking suspiciously like competition.

Just focus on your own race, you’ll only interact with opponents outside of your booking when you see the leaderboard after the race.

It’s never a bad idea to check the weather forecast before you head out on your adventure, so make sure you’re protected from sun, rain, and any other precipitation the elements may throw at you.

No matter the weather though, wear comfortable shoes - there’s a fair bit of walking involved, and you don’t want aching feet to dash your hopes of topping the leaderboard.

Our aim has always been to surprise and delight fans of Race Across the World, but even if you’ve never seen an episode, we think you’ll have a great time anyway.

If you like competing, exploring, walking, discovering new places, or spending time with people you love most, this is for you!

Fans will appreciate the Easter eggs we’ve included along the way but newbies will have no problem understanding the rules or premise of the game. It’s a game for everyone!

No! The minimum team size for the experience is two players and the maximum per team is eight players.

There are lots of route variations that depend on your choices within the race, unfortunately we aren’t able to guarantee you’ll take different routes. Physical puzzles at each checkpoint would remain the same.

Teams on the same booking will automatically receive a private leaderboard website link. This will be provided within the race messaging once your game begins.

Each team may have a different start location (even on the same booking), but teams on the same booking will always finish at the same end location.

By all means, you’re more than welcome to bring your four-legged teammate along! Make sure to select the dog-friendly route, guide dogs can be present on any route.
