June 11, 2021 Mikaela Didonna

Tampa is a laid-back city with a vibrant arts scene and plenty of opportunities for adventure. Busch Gardens offers thrills for families and risk-averse adrenaline junkies, as does the domed IMAX theater of the Museum of Science and Industry. Spend a day touring Tampa’s many art museums, then cheer on your favorite Tampa Bay team at a home game. Get up close and personal with the majestic lions, tigers, and leopards of the Big Cat Rescue animal sanctuary.

The date night workshop was a great glass blowing experience and it made for a unique night out. Justin was awesome and attentive. We have two beautiful glass ornaments to remember the evening.

We did our second room here, the Sherlock room. It was just me and my husband so we were woefully behind on finding the large amount of things we needed. Dylan, our game master, did an AMAZING job of helping us with nudges and clues to make sure we stayed on track and got to solve some of the puzzle parts of the room as well. He really made the experience for us. Thanks!

At the conclusion of several days of Florida Bar meetings with other real property, probate & estate planning attorneys, “Can You Escape” provided the perfect venue to unwind. The staff (especially Ian) were enthusiastic and helpful, the London Escape Room was challenging and entertaining (and we managed to escape with 90 seconds to spare). Other members of our group also enjoyed their escape from the Medieval Room and attempted escape from the Pirate Room. ????????

Rabbit Hole Escape Games

Room Escape Adventures

Reviewed By NoNoNannette - Tampa, United States

This is the second year in a row that we have used Rabbit Hole for our team-building event. I cannot recommend the Rabbit Hole team and their offerings enough. Last year we did an escape room and this year we did a Scavenger Hunt (which had a spy/secret-mission theme). Amy and her team knocked both events out of the park. They were highly communicative throughout our planning process and a plain delight to interact with on the day. The scavenger hunt this year was particularly fun as our team members were able to better acquaint themselves with the area around the River Walk and many are planning on returning to some of the trendy restaurants and cool shops we visited along the way. The puzzles themselves were fun to collaborate on and I look forward to returning in the future to try out the special hunt they have for families. Two enthusiastic thumbs up!

We took the opportunity of our Great governor Ron DeSantos keeping Florida flying high to do the same. For our 11th anniversary we flew ! From the time we walked in, it was easy to feel the total professionalism. XANDER was fantastic. Our group was classroom instructed answering everyone's question. He made everyone flight ready. Our group consisted of a petite girl of about 50 lbs. to me at 180. Xander had all in our group flying successfully! We highly recommend this adventure!

We had such a great time doing the Mad Scientist’s Asylum Escape Room! Jorden, our game master, was AMAZING! He was so helpful and patient. We needed a lot of clues and he was super willing to work with us and help us out! The escape room itself was a ton of fun, all of the puzzles were really creative and well thought out.

We went here last night and had a group of 4 and it was so much fun! We loved they had late hours and did the 10:40pm-11:40pm and it was a blast! We tried the caretaker and the room was so cool the props were the best we’ve seen out of all the escape rooms we have done. You definitely need a few people because it was hard but man was it fun. Leilani was in charge of our room and helping us with clues and she was amazing! She made it if we were struggling too long on something that doesn’t have to do with the game she would help direct us away from that. She is so funny and bubbly and made the experience a lot of fun. They have several rooms and we will definitely be back to try the others. This was my favorite escape room out of any I’ve been too.
