Outdoor Escape Game in Bordeaux: City Treasure Hunt Adventure

Summary

Bordeaux City Heist: Interactive Puzzle Hunt Experience

If you’re after something different in Bordeaux, this outdoor escape game lets you dive into city secrets and test your wits with friends. It’s hands-on, playful, and gives you a new way to see the historic center—plus, you’ll have plenty of laughs along the way.

What’s the experience like?

Right from the start, our phones buzzed with a message from “El Profesor”—felt like we were stepping into a real-life heist. We met up near Place de la Bourse, the air still cool and carrying that faint scent of fresh pastries from a nearby boulangerie. After entering our access code, the digital guide laid out our mission. Two levels to choose from, so even my puzzle-shy friend felt up for it.

We wandered through narrow streets, eyes peeled for odd details—a faded mural here, a strange brass plaque there. The chatbot kept us on our toes with riddles that actually made us stop and debate (and laugh at ourselves more than once). Locals passed by, some glancing curiously as we scribbled notes or huddled over clues. At one point, we had to pause under an old stone archway when church bells rang—totally threw off our concentration for a second. But that’s part of the fun: you’re not just solving puzzles, you’re soaking up Bordeaux’s vibe as you go.
