What people are saying about Lower Saxony

Ich habe schon mehrere Outdoor-Escape-Games gespielt. Outdoor-Escape-Games sind natürlich immer was anderes als Escape Rooms, aber hier fand ich die Umsetzung sehr gelungen. Es geht um mehrere kleine Krimis. Auch für unsere erfahrene Gruppe schön herausfordernd! Dass ein solches Escape Game kein Sightseeing beinhaltet, müsste auch jedem klar sein.

Check-in went smoothly. Lady at reception was very nice and accommodating. Overall it took us 1:30 hour to get through which is great. We'd love to come back :).

schöne familienzeit. das lösen der kleinen kriminalfälle und der eigentlichen story hat auch unseren teenagern sehr gut gefallen.

very nice trip through the harbor with comments from interested parties and funny interjections a great experience.

Wir hatten eine schöne Zeit gemeinsam mit Themen, über die man sonst nicht redet.
