Miami: Axe Throwing & Escape Room Combo with Drinks

Summary

Try axe throwing then solve puzzles in Miami’s only indoor range

You’ll feel your heart race as you try axe throwing for the first time at Miami’s only indoor range, then switch gears to crack codes in a Viking-themed escape room with friends or family. Local guides keep things safe and fun throughout. Expect laughter, teamwork, and maybe a little friendly competition along the way.

What’s the experience like?

I didn’t expect to feel nervous about holding an axe, but there I was in Miami, palms a bit sweaty, watching our instructor show us how to throw without taking out a light fixture. The place smelled faintly of wood and something metallic — not unpleasant, just different. Our guide, Carlos, had this easy way of making everyone laugh (he called my first throw “abstract art”). It took me three tries before the axe actually stuck in the board. When it did, I might’ve cheered too loud. Nobody judged.

After the hour was up (it went fast), we swapped axes for puzzles in their Viking escape room — apparently that’s the default unless you ask for another theme when you arrive. The room was dim and sort of smoky, with carved runes everywhere. We argued over clues and someone accidentally knocked over a fake goblet. There was this moment where we all just stopped and listened to the ticking clock — weirdly tense but also hilarious because none of us are exactly puzzle geniuses. If you’re looking for a day trip with friends that isn’t just eating or sitting around, this combo is it.

Carlos checked in on us halfway through (I think he could hear our confusion from outside). He gave one tiny hint — not enough to spoil it, just enough so we didn’t totally embarrass ourselves. By the end, we were sweaty and still laughing about my “axe technique.” Closed-toe shoes are required for the axe throwing part (which I learned after showing up in sandals — oops). I still think about that thunk sound when the axe finally hit right. It’s oddly satisfying.
