Spy City: Toronto

An Outdoor Team Adventure For The Mind®

The clock is ticking…again! The Prague 'incident' is only just over and you get an urgent phone call from 'control' to tell you that another agent has gone missing. This time it is JB (you know who JB is) and he's gone missing in Toronto.

This mission will plunge you into a race against minds as you follow JB's last known route. Your team will explore the alley ways and hidden squares of the old village of Yorkville to find the information that will lead you to his hiding place. But only if you and your team are good enough. It won't be easy! JB has left behind his attaché case with a few cryptic clues and puzzles to help you but your team better be good at problem solving - logical and creative. 'Lateral thinking' has found a new home in this outdoor team adventure for the mind. Spy City: Toronto

This is also a race against time but running won't help you on this adventure. It is a team with quick minds that will be victorious.
