5 reasons why a Mystery Room or a Mystery Hunt is the perfect summer holiday activity
Summer is full of possibilities, but boredom can creep in once you’ve been to the beach for the tenth time. Are you looking for a summer holiday activity in Copenhagen that’s a bit out of the ordinary? Here are five good reasons why a Mystery Room or the foot of the A Mystery Hunt is the perfect way to fill a summer’s day with excitement, laughter and puzzle-solving, whether you’re out with family, friends or colleagues.
1. A break from the usual summer activities
All winter long, we dream of warm weather and of lying on the beach again. Yet boredom can quickly set in once you’ve got a tan for the tenth time and become the undefeated champion of ‘King’s Game’. This is where our experiences come into the picture. A visit to a Mystery Room or a Mystery Hunt is anything but your usual summer holiday activity. Whether you’re looking for a theme that’s suitable for a day out with family, friends or colleagues, you’ll find an experience that brings you all together around something completely different from a screen.
2. Put your brain to work
A holiday doesn’t have to mean switching your brain off completely. When you solve puzzles together, you get your minds working in a fun way, and you’ll soon discover who in the group thinks the quickest under pressure. As Plato put it:
“You can learn more about a person in an hour’s play than in a year’s conversation.”
That’s exactly the feeling you get from solving a puzzle together, as you laugh, discuss and work out the solution together.
3. Opportunity to be outdoors
Perhaps the idea of being indoors when the weather is glorious puts you off. Fortunately, we also offer an outdoor alternative to the classic Mystery Room. A Mystery Hunt takes place outdoors in Copenhagen’s green spaces, such as Kongens Have and Kastellet, where you’ll solve clues along the way whilst enjoying the summer weather. The outdoor hunts run during the summer months, so now’s the time to get out and about.
4. Mystery is not only found in the dark winter
For some, mystery goes hand in hand with dark nights and cold months. Although summer nights are neither long nor dark, that doesn’t mean the mystery has disappeared. When you choose one of our experiences, you’ll have the chance to step into a spine-tingling world, whatever the season. Summer may have toned down the darkness outdoors, but we’ve cranked up the thrills in our experiences.
5. An experience just for you
The best thing about a summer activity with us is that it’s entirely your own. It’s just you and your loved ones taking part, whether you choose a Mystery Room or a Mystery Hunt. You decide for yourselves whether it’s your colleagues from the office, the whole family or your closest friends who’ll be joining you. A private experience where everyone takes part, and where you’ll go home with a shared story to laugh about for a long time to come.
