Free Scavenger Hunt Ideas

When you are on a budget for an event, consider using some of these free scavenger hunt ideas to add some fun entertainment to your event. Use them on their own or combine one or two of them and come up with a unique experience that your guests will remember.

Clues are the most important part of any scavenger hunt so it is important to come up with some unique ways to present them. One way you can do it is to present your clues in the form of a riddle.

For example, "While a spray of pennies will cover you in cents, one spray of me will cover you in scent." This, of course, is a clue for a perfume or cologne bottle.

If you are not that great coming up with riddles, another option is to write clues that are progressive, meaning that the first clue takes them to a certain item that has the next clue attached to it.

This is one of the most fun game ideas because guests are very active and move from room to room or around the yard. It is especially fun if you create teams of people who are not very familiar with each other. This kind of scavenger hunt is a great ice breaker.

Hosting parties with games is so fun and these kinds of free scavenger hunt ideas will give you the chance to host an event that people are going to remember. Just be sure that you plan out the logical order of things and have enough clues and items that everyone will be able to be successful through the end of the event.
