This single team rate makes the activity extremely economical, especially if you come in a group. It's excellent value for money for several hours of entertainment, exploration, and intellectual challenges in the heart of the city, much more advantageous than an activity charged per person.

Is it suitable for children / families?

The fun aspect of the treasure hunt, solving puzzles, and discovering the city makes it a very popular activity for youngsters.

How long does an escape game in Plzen last?

The duration of an outdoor escape game in Plzen generally varies between 1.5 and 2.5 hours. This primarily depends on your team's pace, your ability to solve puzzles, and the time you wish to take to admire the sights encountered along the way. The advantage is that you are completely free to take breaks whenever you want, grab a coffee, or even have lunch en route. It's a flexible experience, to be enjoyed at your own pace.

Do I need to book in advance?

It is not necessary to book in advance for our outdoor escape games. Once the purchase is made online, you instantly receive the instructions and activation code, allowing you to start the game whenever you wish, without time constraints. However, if you prefer to plan your activity, you can certainly purchase the game a few days or weeks before your visit. Flexibility is one of the great advantages of our urban scavenger hunts!

What to visit in Plzen beyond escape games?

Beyond our exciting escape games, Plzen is full of treasures to discover. Don't miss the majestic St. Bartholomew's Cathedral and its tower offering breathtaking views. Dive into brewing history at the famous Pilsner Urquell Brewery, or explore the impressive Great Synagogue. The historic center, with Republic Square, is perfect for a stroll. For an unusual touch, Plzen's historical underground offers a fascinating immersion into the city's past.

What is the best season to visit Plzen?

The best season to visit Plzen and fully enjoy its outdoor activities, including our escape games, is spring (April-June) and autumn (September-October). The weather is generally mild and pleasant, ideal for walking, and crowds are less dense than in summer. Summer (July-August) is also a great time, but expect more people. Winter can be charming with its Christmas markets, but the cold makes outdoor activities less comfortable.
