Top 10 Things to do Adventurous in Istanbul, Turkey

January 15, 2022 Veronika Gaddis

The mosques, bazaars, and Turkish baths of Istanbul could keep you happily occupied for your entire trip: an eyeful of breathtaking architecture here, a good-natured haggle over a carpet there. Kick your trip off at the awe-inspiring Sultan Ahmet Camii (Blue Mosque), which is visible from many points of the city. Stroll the Galata Bridge and stop by the Miniaturk Park to see its tiny artifacts. The Grand Bazaar has thousands of shops to browse, while the Egyptian Bazaar is a fragrant trove of spices and fruits.

Tuzak

You open your eyes. You are locked inside a house you have never been in before. You have one hour to make it. With your teammates, you have to solve the riddles, find the clues and open the doors that will get you out of this house. You've got one hour. Can you make it?

Both of Tuzak's escape room games - the Great Bank Heist and Hotel California - are highly enjoyable and very well-designed. The stories are engaging, the puzzles are varied, interesting, and appropriately challenging, and there are some really good props and decoration. The bank heist game has an especially fun surprise at the end. We chose this establishment in the first place based on their high ratings and recommendations on various pages, and they deserve their good reputation.

Quest

A group of 5 of us had an absolutely excellent experience at Quest this weekend. We all thought that Quest was one of the most fun days out we've had in a long time, with superb attention to detail, a really immersive environment and some ingenious plot-led puzzle devices. Two of our group are escape room afficionados, and three of us were first-timers, and Quest captured the attention and the imagination of everyone equally. The creativity and consistency of the different puzzles was great, and it truly felt you had to work as a team, with everyone able to contribute. For non-Turkish-speaking travellers, please note that the website says that the English version of their game is not available for booking yet, but that information is out of date. If you email them directly, you'll find the team are very helpful and happy to make a booking for you. You'll not be disappointed. I think their plan is to open a second escape game in the same apartment block, on the floor below, and I will be banging the door down for them to let me have a go once it's set up; ironically trying to get in rather than get out of the room!
