About this event
Slip through a bookcase, tap a wall, and suddenly you’re somewhere you didn’t expect. The Secret Portal Hunt and Tour transforms a historic mansion into a labyrinth of shifting secrets, where augmented reality guides you to concealed doors and legendary rooms that change with each visit. With only your smartphone as a key, you’ll navigate at least 60 storied spaces and 32 hidden passages, each layered with tales and curiosities that rarely reveal themselves all at once. The experience is less a traditional tour and more a puzzle box, rewarding curiosity and a sharp eye as you uncover the building’s eccentric history. No two routes are ever quite the same, and the digital clues embedded throughout the venue ensure that even repeat explorers find new corners to investigate. It’s a rare chance to see a storied landmark from the inside out—if you can find your way.
