About this quest

Welcome to Mayfair, where luxury meets secrets and the streets whisper tales of fame, fortune, and scandal. You are Charles Pope, once America’s most infamous paparazzo, now chasing a comeback in London’s glittering social scene. 

Here, aristocrats mingle with artists, secrets hide behind designer sunglasses, and every corner could spark the story that puts you back on the front page.

Strut through the elegant heart of London, follow clues, solve real-world puzzles, and uncover juicy leads one step at a time. 

This isn’t just a walk - it’s your chance to make headlines. Bring a friend and dive into a glamorous quest filled with charm, mystery, and unforgettable memories. The city is buzzing. Are you ready to catch the next big story?

Highlights

  • Discover the birthplace of Mayfair and how this area came to be on top of the Monopoly board

  • Meet some of the most scandalous socialites and indulge in some celebrity gossip

  • See where The Queen buys her books and discover some of the classiest shopping destinations

  • See Savile Row, the most famous place to buy a suit in the world

  • Learn about The Grosvenor family – who are they and why is their name everywhere in Mayfair?

The mission: Your story in London

You are Charles Pope, a famous reporter and probably one of the first paparazzi. Despite your name, you are no saint. Back in America, you used to be as controversial and infamous as the celebrities you were chasing. But now, your fame has faded. 

This is why you have come to England – you’re sure you’ll find a front-page subject in the funky London social scene, filled with aristocrats, artists and scandalous characters. 

So, let’s get to work! There’s a front page waiting for its headline.
