10 Things to do Good for Adrenaline Seekers in Connecticut That You Shouldn't Miss

September 8, 2021 Esmeralda Fenner

Connecticut is a study in attraction and contrast. In one small state, you’ll find miles of sandy oceanfront shoreline, acres of forested hiking trails, and world-class museums, art and theater. Here family-friendly adventure parks and aquariums are just minutes from dynamic casino resorts and quaint, historic small towns — offering experiences that range from culinary to cultural, luxurious to laid-back. It’s the perfect place to unwind and recharge, all at the same time.

AMAZING!! Great for kids of all ages, safety for me was not an issue. Everything was explained very thoroughly when we went in, all staff helpful and kind. My 9 and 11 year old had an amazing time!! Also, very affordable with it costing $24 a child including shoes and safety harness! It's also a day pass, so if you go in the morning, you can go back later the same day! Drinks available, did not see food, so leaving for lunch to rest your hands is a total bonus! Kids had so much fun, which of course made for a very happy mama!!

We had an absolute blast doing The Gallery at Escape New Haven!! The staff was super friendly and helpful. The attention to detail in the game was amazing and the puzzles kept us on our toes the whole time.
