PUZZLING PUB CRAWLS
WE LOVE OUR LOCAL ARIZONA BARS IN both SCOTTSDALE AND PRESCOTT – and CAN’T WAIT TO SHARE THEM WITH YOU!
Our cool adults-only Puzzling Pub Crawls in both Prescott and Scottsdale, AZ will whisk you from bar to bar… where you have to think so you can drink! Your Puzzlemaster will be your DD and tour guide on these puzzling pub crawls!
All rides are private (just your group) and we meet you at a designated spot.
Visiting? Arrange for us to pick you up at your hotel!
Here's What We Do Better
Pub Crawls run all Summer during our regular hours in spite of the heat as we are only on the golf carts in between bars! We will however have to reschedule your ride if it is over 110 degrees two hours before the time of your ride due to safety precautions. Please look at our Cancellation Policy before booking. Too hot? Book a Puzzle Party instead!
Based on our popular corporate Puzzle Relays, these 20 puzzles test your physical and mental puzzle solving skills! Designed specifically for larger groups, we divide you into teams of 1 – 5 people. We visit three or four bars, where you’ll compete for points – and the team with the most points wins a prize at the end! All alcohol and drinks are purchased separately, and must be 21 years old to participate.

SIPPIN’ SLEUTHS
We’ve teamed up with fellow Puzzlemasters in the United Kingdom at Puzzle Post to bring you their top puzzles, and combined them with a three bar pub crawl! This leisurely ride will visit 3 bars for 30-40 minute stays, and drop you off at your final location – the best bar to chill at!
This puzzle has a double of every set of clues, allowing you to work together as one large group OR splitting your group into two and competing to see who solves the mystery first.
Scottsdale’s Sippin’ Sleuths THE SCANDAL – A sports photographer has stumbled across a story of match-fixing and blackmail at the Marseille Tennis Championships. A bank of files and documents are being used to threaten a leading tennis star; they need your help to disrupt the plan!
Prescott Sippin’ Sleuths THE DECEIT – A successful TV chef has been betrayed, but by who? Her reputation’s on the line and her fortune is in jeopardy – she knows where the secrets are hidden but she needs your help to find them.

PUB CRAWL FAQ’S
Riders will be visiting several different areas of Old Town Scottsdale or Historic Downtown Prescott. They will be presented with a different type of puzzle at each location. Locations are chosen in various ways – sometimes through a song choice or other times by driver curation (we avoid really crowded locations!) Once at the chosen bar, riders will be able to purchase a beverage of their choice to enjoy while solving their puzzle. The goal? To solve the puzzle and earn bragging rights for winning that puzzle round. At the end of 25- 35 minutes the next bar is revealed and you are off again. Your final destination has been chosen to be within walking distance of your vehicle so sit back and enjoy your final destination long after your ride has ended! There are up to a half dozen bars in each area, and up to four areas to visit…so every ride will be unique! All alcohol and drinks are purchased separately, and must be 21 years old to participate.
If it is raining at the time your ride starts:
• In Prescott, we will give it 15 minutes to stop in the summer; if it doesn’t, we will reschedule your ride.
• In Scottsdale, we run rain or shine in the summer. Come prepared!
• In the Winter, we reschedule your ride in both locations. It’s miserable to be cold & wet!
If it begins to rain during your ride in the summer:
• In Prescott, we will stop the clock and seek safety in the local parking garage. Most summer storms are short, and we will restart the game when it stops!
• In Scottsdale, we break out the emergency ponchos! These are very thin but will keep the worst off if we have an unexpected shower.
SNOW: If there is snow on the ground, and roads are dry, we will proceed as normal.
If there is snow and wet roads, we will reschedule your ride.
HEAT: If it is over 110 degrees at the time of your ride, we reserve the right to postpone your ride.
Puzzle Rides does not offer direct refunds on any ride, but will issue a store credit good for one year should you have to cancel at any time or if weather causes us to postpone due to safety reasons. Pub Crawls canceled or rescheduled less than 7 days before their booking time will be subject to a $50 rescheduling fee. We plan and staff our rides so our customers have an amazing experience. We appreciate your cooperation and understanding of this policy.

We do not provide you with alcohol. All alcohol must be purchased and consumed at the bar where it was purchased. Absolutely no alcohol allowed on the golf cart.
Likewise, do not bring alcohol with you. Many bars are cash-only, so make sure to have cash on had. We request that only one person use a card to pay for everyone’s purchases to save time.

In Scottsdale, we pick you up at RACK Scottsdale. In Prescott, at the local parking garages. We leave you at your last location to enjoy it without a time limit; it’s always within a block’s walk from your vehicle. We encourage you to have a designated driver, or use a ride share service to get home safely!
A trained Puzzlemaster; music, silliness, fun and PUZZLES! We do thinking, visual and physical puzzles! Think of your puzzlemaster as your new favorite sober drinking buddy!
