Outdoor Escape Room in Tampa - Ybor City

This was such a fun activity! My 10-year-old son and I were visiting Florida and had a great time exploring Ybor City while completing the scavenger hunt. The clues and puzzles were engaging and just the right level of challenge. A couple of the clues were a little vague, so we had to use the extra hints, but that didn’t take away from the overall experience. My only suggestion would be to make the route a bit more streamlined. We found ourselves walking back and forth between locations several times. For example, we’d arrive at one stop only for the next clue to send us almost all the way back toward the previous location. A more efficient route would make the experience even more enjoyable. Overall, it was a great way to explore the area, and we’d definitely recommend it to others looking for a fun and interactive activity in Ybor City!

This was SO fun! I received it as a birthday gift and ended up doing with my family (live in Tampa) and visiting family members from out-of-town. It was playful, easy to use, and challenging in just the right way. We never felt like we were stumped but we had to put our heads together to solve some clues. Best of all, we got to explore Ybor in a unique way, say hello to the wild chickens, and solve crime!

I had so much fun exploring Ybor with my friends and family and solving clues. Some were easier than others but it wouldn’t be fun if it was too easy! It took us 3 hours overall but we did take an ice cream break. Would definitely do something like this again.

Good times. Gave something to do. Took about 2 hours but we were in no hurry. Total walking about 1 mile. Not as easy as you think. We used hints frequently, kinda have to get into the mind set of the clues it was easier to get answer.

We had an amazing experience with Escapely in Tampa, and what made it even better is that this is our hometown—yet we saw it in an entirely new way. The game made us slow down and notice details, buildings, and little pieces of the city that we’ve walked past countless times without ever really seeing before. One of the biggest wins is that there’s no time limit. That freedom completely changes the experience. We were able to stop for great food along the way, enjoy the neighborhood, and soak everything in without feeling rushed or stressed like you often do in a traditional escape room. The puzzles are incredibly well balanced. They’re not so easy that you breeze through without thinking, but also not so hard that you feel stuck or frustrated. At one point, we were sure we were on the right track—but something felt off (turns out, we were wrong). We contacted Escapely by texting the contact number and they responded immediately, gently guiding us back on track without giving away the answers, which we really appreciated. We also loved how the hint system works. Several hints are built right into the web experience, but they’re totally optional—you only see them if you choose to click “hint.” And even then, there’s additional guidance available if you’re still stuck, which makes it approachable for all experience levels. If you enjoy escape rooms, you’ll absolutely LOVE Escapely. It’s immersive, flexible, smartly designed, and a fantastic way to explore Tampa—whether you’re visiting or, like us, rediscovering your own city.

Booked the escape room. Got confirmation. Paid for transportation to the pickup location. Arrived and got a phone call that kits were out of stock. Refund will take 3-5 business days. They should not be selling and confirming experiences that are not available. Very dissapointed.

My sister got the Escapely Adventure for me and my fiancé for Christmas and it was such a great gift. My fiancé and I loved it! We had so much fun and would strongly recommend it for someone else.

We had a great time doing this, we found the difficulty level good for our particular group, although we overthought the final part a bit, lol. It was great to find something that both my (young adult) children, who are vastly different, had fun doing and were able to both contribute in different ways that showed both their strengths. It was a great family activity that I would do again in a heartbeat. Hoping new options will come out in the future for our area!

We had 6 people. I think it might be better with fewer since there is really 1 puzzle that is being worked at a time. It was alot of fun. I think we were so focused on the puzzle we might have missed the city itself. The kids live escape rooms but weren't too into this. I think it might have been the 1 puzzle vs splitting up and it was less hands on. If did it again would probably only do adults.

So much fun!!.............. Took us 3 hours and lots of hints. ............ Would definitely recommend it! ......... A great way to see the city!...............
