A Detailed Look at the Zombie Scavengers Experience

What the Tour Entails

The Fun City Scavenger Hunt in Hollywood is centered around an app that guides you through a zombie apocalypse scenario. You and your team, limited to groups of up to 10 people, are tasked with finding specific survival items scattered around Hollywood. These items are all part of a fictional scenario where you must gather supplies to “survive the zombie invasion.”

The activity is self-guided, meaning you can set your own pace while exploring the city’s streets and landmarks. The start point is ArtsPark at Young Circle, a lively spot that offers a good central location to kick off your adventure. The game lasts about an hour, which makes it a perfect quick activity, especially if you’re trying to fill a gap between other tours or activities.

What Makes This Activity Special

What sets this apart from typical scavenger hunts is the zombie theme and game mechanics. You’re not just collecting random items; each find and challenge earns you points, with the goal being to maximize your score and “survive” the zombie threat**. There’s a zombie-themed challenge component that adds a humorous and competitive edge to the hunt.

On top of that, the app allows you to see how your score compares with other teams across the country, adding a light-hearted competitive element. The remote host is available via chat to clarify instructions or provide hints, which can be especially helpful if you get stuck or need encouragement.

What to Expect During the Game

Once you start, your team will receive a list of items to locate. These can be anywhere in Hollywood — in shops, on the street, or in public spaces. You’ll also encounter zombie-themed challenges that might involve taking photos, solving riddles, or completing small tasks. For example, you might need to snap a picture with a specific monument or find an item that looks like it could be part of a survival kit.

The points system encourages strategic thinking: do you go for the easy, low-value items first or risk more time for higher scores? The goal is to use your city knowledge and team coordination to gather as many items and complete challenges as possible within the hour.

The Meeting Point and Logistics

The activity begins and ends at ArtsPark at Young Circle, a vibrant park near the heart of Hollywood. Its central location makes it accessible via public transportation and provides a scenic spot to regroup after the hunt. Operating hours are flexible from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, Tuesday through Sunday, giving ample opportunity to fit it into most schedules.

Since it’s a self-guided activity, you should wear comfortable shoes for walking, bring your smartphone (the activity is app-based), and prepare for outdoor weather. Service animals are welcome, and the tour is suitable for most travelers.

Pricing and Value

At $20 per group, it’s a budget-friendly activity that can produce lasting memories. For that price, you’re getting not just a walk around Hollywood, but an interactive game with a themed twist. The cost includes all activities and the support of a remote survival guide, which enhances the experience without extra charges.

While it doesn’t include transportation or a private guide, the independence of this tour is part of its charm. It allows your group to explore at your own pace and focus on the fun rather than feeling rushed or guided in a traditional manner.

What Travelers Are Saying

Though the reviews are limited, the positive feedback highlights the knowledgeable remote guides and the engaging nature of the game. One review notes that “the guides are very helpful,” which can be a relief if you’re unfamiliar with the area or new to scavenger hunts.

The activity is also praised for being easy to customize, with many players appreciating that it’s private and exclusive to their group — perfect for friends, families, or small team outings. The majority seem to enjoy the lighthearted competition and the chance to explore Hollywood differently.

Practical Tips for a Great Experience

• Bring comfortable walking shoes — you’ll be on your feet for about an hour.
• Charge your phone beforehand — your app is your guide and tool for submitting challenges.
• Dress for the weather — since it’s outdoors, check the forecast and bring sunscreen or an umbrella.
• Coordinate with your team — discuss strategies for scoring the most points.
• Start early or late — during peak hours, the streets can be busier, but you’ll also get more energy and activity.
