Hidden Packages

There are 100 hidden packages in GTA III: 32 in Portland, 37 on Staunton Island and 31 in Shoreside Vale. They are white parcels that spin slowly in hidden corners, on rooftops, under bridges and down alleys. Collect one by walking into it on foot, which you cannot do from a vehicle. Each pays $1,000 and the game shows how many of the 100 you have. The numbers below follow a route through each island, not the order you happen to find them.

Tips

Collect each island’s packages early, while its gangs are friendly. Many rooftop packages are reached by climbing stairs at the side of a building, by jumping from a raised road or the elevated railway, or by driving up a ramp. A few are in places reached by boat, such as Portland Rock, so a Predator or Speeder helps. The Dodo is no help: packages cannot be collected from any vehicle.
