Visit Mesa has partnered with the experts at Geocaching HQ to bring visitors an incredible hide-and-seek travel quest throughout the city. Visit Mesa's GeoTour was developed as a way to engage travelers on the autism spectrum and provide a fun way to explore all corners of the city on a quest for caches. Perfect for any visitor, the tour is a strategic collection of geocaches anchored at many of Mesa's participating Certified Autism Centers and city parks. From outdoor adventurers to tech-lovers, the popularity of the sport is growing.  Visitors that find at least 5 geocaches on Visit Mesa's GeoTour can collect a special souvenir celebrating their adventure, or contact  Find all of the geocaches and guests will earn the digital souvenir directly in the Geocaching app.

Geocaching is an outdoor treasure hunting game where players use a mobile app or dedicated GPS device to find cleverly hidden containers called geocaches. Today, there are more than 3 million geocaches in over 190 countries.

The Visit Mesa GeoTour has quickly become a popular way for visitors to explore the city. Visit Mesa helped develop the tour with resident geocachers and selected locations that are in Mesa parks or near the entrances of certified autism centers including all three City of Mesa museums. Visitors can download the Geocaching® app from the App store, create an account and search under GeoTours for GT48C / Visit Mesa GeoTour. Tips for newcomers to the sport are available on Geocaching.com.
