AN ORIGINAL ACTIVITY IN THE HEART OF PARIS
Foxtrail is a cross between a treasure hunt and an outdoor escape game.
A fun and imaginative activity designed for friends, families, and larger groups of all kinds in which the city becomes your playing field.
In teams of 2 to 6 people, use your printed Foxtrail instructions to try and follow the trail of the runaway fox by finding his interactive clues, breaking codes, and revealing hidden messages that will guide you through the streets of Paris.
Foxtrail is unique. During the activity you will encounter permanent installations that the fox has hidden around the city. They combine creativity with technology, producing fun and original challenges. Clues will require both intelligence and teamwork to solve, similar to an Escape Room. However you are free to complete the trail at your own pace, so you can fully appreciate the sights and unexplored corners of the city you will discover along the way. Discover more about our trails:
- 2-hour outdoor activity
- Interactive clues hidden in secret indoor locations
- SAINT GERMAIN trail: 6th arrondissement
- PARIS MON COEUR trail: 1st arrondissement
- Private groups of 2-18 people: simple online booking

WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY
A fun way to spend an afternoon exploring Paris. Easy to follow instructions and friendly assistance when required. Malcolm S
The clues were just on the right level. We had to use our eyes and a bit of lateral thinking too. Great use of local landmarks within the clues and riddles. Would definitely do another one.GoPlaces799842
I can't understate how much we enjoyed this walking tour. I've never done one before and I can't imagine how this cryptic, clue chasing, meander through a fascinating bit of Paris could have been set up better. I can't go into the details of the tasks/quizzes as it would spoil it for others, but I can say that I will remember all of them (and especially one) for the rest of my life. Absolutely fantastic.Mike n Em
The four of us know Paris pretty well and we discovered corners of Saint Germain that we did not know before. Our clique consists of people aged 53, 54, 77 and 79 and we all had great fun! Kirsten Kurbjuhn
Great way to see some places we might not otherwise have visited on the left bank. Clues were not too hard, but made you think, and you needed to observe your surroundings more carefully than you normally would. Imaginative way of incorporating shops and churches into the clues too. We loved it!Emily Frith
We were looking for something to do with a group of friends for a couple of hours. This was perfect - it took us round a beautiful bit of Paris we had never been to, and was really good fun. Some clues were trickier than others, and some were really clever; we loved that we had to get ‘hands on’ with some of them! We got to see some fascinating places and shops that we wouldn’t have thought to visit. Highly recommend!CAZZA
I have done a couple of treasure hunts in London before, but this is the first time I’ve done something new & inventive like this. It was great fun, really interactive and interesting. I would highly recommend Foxtrail to anyone wanting to explore Paris in a fun & different way! Tom Allerton
Great fun for all and a great way to discover Paris!Tim Daniels
