Get your map and camera at the ready: Hertz has launched a US photo treasure hunt – and there are prizes to be won.
Launching in 30 cities across three states, Ride ‘n’ Seek creates a bespoke, 10-stop challenge for each player. Find all 10 images for each city and you’ll receive 1,000 Hertz Gold Plus Reward Points – when you upload to them Instagram and tag them correctly – that’s 100 for each one, and 800 is equivalent to a day’s free car hire (in participating countries).
The best shots uploaded to Instagram could even win a Polaroid camera.
How Hertz Ride 'n' Seek works
There are objects, museums, viewpoints and more – each with its own difficulty rating – to be found across California, Florida and New York State. So it could be that you need to capture a beach sunset in Fort Lauderdale (and get a quick snap of a Florida orange while you’re there), or head to the Southernmost Point Buoy at the very end of the Florida Keys.
In New York, you’ll be challenged to find everything from a Long Island seagull to Buttermilk Falls near Ithaca. Meanwhile, if you’re heading to California, you’ll have to look up to find a Mariposa tree in Yosemite National Park, and out to sea to spot a dolphin in the waves.
