Is a Christmas party with Epic Escape worth it? Here's what our teams have to say

We booked the Outdoor Escape Tour for our Christmas party (20 people) and had a lot of fun. The puzzles were tricky but doable. We competed against each other in teams, so everyone really got to participate in solving the puzzles. At the end, there was a small reward for everyone. We were all completely satisfied and hope there will be a new tour for our next Christmas party! 😊

We had our Christmas party yesterday with Escape Room Leipzig Outdoor. It was a great idea, especially since we could really work together as a team to solve the puzzles (there were 7 of us) and explore the city center at the same time. After the 1.5-hour adventure, we finished off with some mulled wine. Thanks for the great idea, and maybe we’ll see you again next year. Team ITanixs

Thanks to the entire Epic Escape team. I did the event with my team, and it was a great team-building activity. I can also see it working really well for bachelor parties, Christmas parties, or family gatherings.

We went on an escape tour for our Christmas party. Everyone had a great time. We highly recommend it to anyone who wants to try something different. The communication beforehand went really well.

We booked the Epic Escape outdoor event as our Christmas party. Everything was exceptionally well-organized, and we received a very warm welcome. We had a lot of fun playing the game. Afterward, we enjoyed some mulled wine and went out for dinner. Everything was excellent, and we would 100% recommend it. A huge thank you to the entire team at Epic Escape and My Frankfurt.

How far do you have to walk in the Outdoor Escape?

Our Outdoor Escapes are not marathons, but offer a unique puzzle adventure. The walking distance is only 1.2 km and is barrier-free, so Outdoor Escapes are also suitable for people with disabilities.
