"A great way to spend an afternoon. We had a small group of 10-12 year olds. The puzzle was excellent and the clues were ideal - not too challenging but not to easy either. Lots of fun!"
Beth, S
"My son and I had a great day exploring Parramatta to find all the clues so we could solve the puzzle. The clues were just right - not too easy and not too hard. The puzzle took us to some great places that we would normally pass by. Who knew there so much history around. Can't wait to do another puzzle. Thanks Puzzle Trails."
