COVID-19 Update

Please note: this Scavenger Hunt takes place inside the California State Capitol Museum. The museum is temporarily closed to protect park staff, volunteers, and visitors from exposure to coronavirus (COVID-19). This scavenger hunt will not be playable until the museum reopens.

We’ll keep this site updated frequently, but you can check whether the museum is open by visiting the museum website.

Overview

  • The scavenger hunt leads you on a guided tour of the California State Capitol building in Sacramento. Learn California’s history, see beautiful artwork and architecture.
  • You and your team solve 20 fun puzzles and challenges along the way.
  • Great for families, couples, or corporate team building.
  • Takes about an hour and a half to complete with about a mile of walking.
  • $49 covers your whole team (2 to 6 people recommended).
  • More than 6 people? Buy one scavenger hunt per team – still just $49 per team of up to 6. Race each other to the finish, or for the highest score.

If you’re looking for something novel to do, this is a great idea. My husband, 2 kids and I had a blast.

We have lived in the area for decades and did not know all of the facts and interesting tidbits in and around the game. Great activity for all ages, young and old, locals or visitors. Highly recommended.
