“We booked last minute due to a short stay in Budapest and only later found out that you have to double-check availability on their website after booking, which was confusing as the app already displayed times. Although they did allow us to do an escape room, the overall experience wasn’t quite what we expected”
Step into a turn-of-the-century Egyptian expedition, search a bazaar and secret temple for a lost papyrus, and beat the Pharaoh’s clock. This private English or Hungarian game lasts 60 minutes, suits 2 to 6 players, and requires an adult with anyone under 14.
“it was a great experience really enjoyed it very helpful staff”
You’ll spend 60 minutes in a virtual escape room by PÁNiQ-SZOBA in central Budapest. Choose your game, then work with up to five others through puzzles, mysteries, realistic physics, and changing virtual worlds. English and Hungarian game-master support is available.
Spend about eight hours moving from Budapest to Korda Filmpark and the Etyek wine country. You will explore a medieval film set, help shoot a short movie, tour a winery, taste five wines with lunch, stroll through Etyek, and finish in a movie-themed escape room.
“The Korda Movie Park programme is amazing, and it is paired with unique Hungarian flavours! The food and wine were excellent, and the organisation ensured I was never bored for a moment. I had the chance to experience how a film is shot and even be a part of it. One of the most popular films, Dune, was also produced in Etyek. The mystery room is great fun!”
