Top 10 Things to do Adventurous in Cardiff, Wales

December 8, 2021 Franklyn Hardiman

The Welsh capital may have begun its life as a Roman fort, but it's since become a bustling city. Where the fort once stood, Cardiff Castle has held court since the 11th century. It remains a central presence in the city, now full of lively art and music venues, hip boutiques, fun bars and modern hotels. Even with so many new and exciting things to see, the National History Museum is still the most visited attraction in Wales. Don't be the only visitor who plays hooky!

We had a fantastic experience at escape reality completing the heist room which was a great room with lots of different puzzles to complete. The iPad that you are given to get your clues on is a great was to do it as it makes you think for yourself before trying to get a clue. If you seem to be getting really stuck the game master you have comes into the room either by you pressing the button or you looking completely puzzled like we did! We had Charlie as our games master who was brilliant! If we come to Cardiff again we will definitely go back!

My family went to AR Cardiff for a family event. Youngest player was 11 and oldest 56 and everyone enjoyed! Half of us played Black Queen and the other half played Mad Scientist. The game masters Tobias and Lowri were amazing, anticipating when we needed hints on our screens to stay on track and also when we wanted to figure things out alone - they were very intuitive with how we wanted to play. The puzzles were challenging and engaging and were well timed, making the experience great fun from start to end! Thank you Tobias and Lowri!
