What to do and see in Reno, Nevada (NV): The Best Fun Activities & Games

September 16, 2021 Renato Branum

Nevada's "other" gambling and resort town, Reno is located in the western part of the state near the California border. What the city lacks in glitz or reputation it more than makes up for in attractions and amenities. There are first-rate hotels, golf courses and casinos to rival its southern counterpart and, also like Las Vegas, Reno has become a popular destination for families. Galena Creek Park offers nature trails that even young children can navigate, plus organized educational events for families.

We had such a great experience, again! Kevin was an awesome host and made the time we were there very safe, memorable, and fun! Our group of 9 did axe throwing, a Nerf war, and ended with an escape room. We couldn't say enough about how organized, professional, and accommodating Kevin was or the events we did were- we had a great time!! Will definitely be back!!

An innovative take on escape rooms, enthusiasts and beginners alike will definitely enjoy Immersium! Our travel party came here for an escape room weekend in Reno - around eight rooms scheduled - Immersium was definitely one of the top! Staff was awesome, involved, and the gamemaster was on point. You can tell they cared for their creation, which is a twist on escape rooms in that we weren't trying to 'escape' the arena, rather we needed to solve puzzles, locks, and riddles to complete a storyline before time ran out. I appreciated the cleverness of some of the puzzles, definitely a challenge and a must on your list for an amazing time, especially if you're cruising Reno for escape room experiences.

Reviewed By robertcT3871WV - Loveland, United States

If you like luxury rooms, a great casino, large mega screens on every wall in the casino with streaming views from around the world, you will be impressed. We recommend asking for a room in the Tuscany Tower. Beautiful red marble floors with an old Mediterranean/Italian style decor. Rooms have a small refrigerator with a tv that gets the same streaming views shown in the casino (video channels start on 65). Cafe Milano is our favorite - it is smoke free environment and has good sized portions of food too.

Our family went for my grandson’s 8th birthday and we all couldn’t help laughing and smiling as we raced around the track, trying to pass each other. My grandson was so excited that he had lapped me twice! It was such a fun activity for kids and adults to share. The staff were all friendly and helpful, from those at the front desk to those working the go karts. They made sure we chose helmets that fit and also helped strap us in properly. We all can’t wait to go again! (The costs mounted up quickly, but if you become a yearly member, you do get discounts.)
