What makes Zombie Scavengers unique is its sophisticated use of technology to create a flexible, competitive experience. It's an entirely self-guided, app-driven mission where your goal is to survive a virtual apocalypse by strategically finding survival items in your city. The hunt is dynamic, offering a variety of tasks, from photo-taking evidence of supplies to answering zombie trivia, all while earning points. Your team benefits from on-demand virtual support from a remote host, and the national score-tracking adds an exhilarating, competitive layer, pushing you to outwit other "colonies" across the country.

Our hunts are designed to be more than just a list of items to find—they're a royal adventure with features you won't find with our competitors.

A Royal Quest Theme: The rotating royalty role adds a layer of teamwork that encourages everyone to get involved. Every person gets an opportunity to be King or Queen, leading the charge on our missions. A Live Remote Host: Gone are the days of being on your own. Our live, virtual host is available via chat to provide hints, answer questions, and ensure a smooth experience. Flexible and Self-Paced: The entire hunt is managed through our easy-to-use app, and there's no timer. You can explore at your own pace, whether you want a quick challenge or a leisurely stroll with plenty of photo ops. A Focus on Fun: Our hunt is quirky and humorous, not a dry historical walk. We're all about creating laughter & memories with loved ones.

Step off the cruise ship in Juneau with a self-guided audio tour built by a born-and-raised Alaskan, not a faceless tour company. The Ultimate Juneau Experience bundles eight offline GPS tours — from Mendenhall Glacier and Nugget Falls to the Perseverance Trail, Mount Roberts, and a downtown walking tour past the Red Dog Saloon and St. Nicholas Russian Orthodox Church. Here's how it works: you play the stories on your own phone. As you walk, GPS triggers each stop automatically and hands-free — phone in your pocket, glacier in your face. No live guide, no paper ticket, no rigid bus schedule. Because the Last Frontier runs on zero cell service, every tour works fully offline, no roaming required.
