A late-afternoon sun slides across the bayfront and the city begins to hum with holiday lights — you tap open the Holly Jolly Hunt app and the block becomes a playground. Streets, murals, storefronts and the riverfront turn into clues; your team moves with purpose, camera lenses hunting for the next scored photo.
This app-driven scavenger hunt threads through Tampa’s cultural highlights: the packed brick streets of Ybor City born from the cigar trade, the open green of Curtis Hixon Waterfront Park, and the salt-sweet edge of Tampa Bay where estuaries shape the shoreline. The ground is flat and city-made — sidewalks, plazas and occasional grassy strips — so geology plays a quiet role here compared with the human story carried in the architecture and public art.
Expect holiday-themed prompts that mix traditional icons (wreaths, tree displays) with local twists (mural details, storefront quirk), plus timed challenges that reward speed and creativity. The game runs from a central downtown start point and uses a chat-based remote guide; no physical meeting point is staffed.
Practical edge: schedule an hour around golden hour for better photos, bring a charged phone and a battery pack, and set a walking pace that keeps teams together. Public transit and street parking are available but space fills during festivals — plan arrival earlier on weekend evenings. This experience is low-impact: leave public spaces as you find them and respect private property while you chase the next clue.
You’ll receive start instructions via Viator before your booking; most groups begin near a central downtown spot such as Curtis Hixon Waterfront Park but the app allows flexible starting points.
Booking covers one team; group size is flexible but larger teams may want to split into smaller units to move faster and maximize photos.
Yes — the route uses public sidewalks and plazas; some areas in Ybor have uneven brickwork, so check accessible paths beforehand and notify the operator of special requirements.
The experience is not cancelled for weather; for a full refund cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled time per the standard cancellation policy.
