Oh, so good!
I was amazed at the excellent service by the Escape the City team who called me when I had a problem with my mobile camera. Thank you so much!

Very interesting
I really liked it. Very interesting both by the puzzles and by the course and the anecdotes. I've had a hard time with some puzzles, but frankly, I'm not experienced, so it's quite feasible. Especially since we have a lot of clues and possibly the answers.
Response from the operator: Bonjour, Merci beaucoup pour votre commentaire ! :) Effectivement certaines énigmes ne sont pas simples, mais vous pouvez être d'autant plus fiers de les avoir surmontées ! 💪 À bientôt pour de nouvelles escapades, Escapement,

The application does not work...
Honestly, I've been raising three times... And I can't finish... Why put videos when the program rows heavily when three of us have 4G... Lame, lame and really lame... Keep your money 💸. To flee
Response from the operator: Bonjour Marie, Nous avons répondu à votre mail en vous proposant une solution de remboursement. Effectivement, lors de votre expérience une panne à l'échelle nationale de notre prestataire de services (Heroku) qui héberge nos serveurs, a rendu complètement inopérants notre jeu samedi 24/09 de 14:21 à 14:34. Il ne s'agissait pas d'un problème de vidéo ou de 4G. Treize minutes pendant lesquelles votre compagnon virtuel ne vous a pas répondu. Après ce court instant tous nos jeux sont redevenus 100% fonctionnels. Malheureusement je comprends que vous n'avez pas pu finir le jeu car vous n'aviez pas remarqué que le jeu marchait de nouveau. Veuillez nous excuser pour ce désagrément technique. Il s'agit de la première panne serveurs que nous subissons de la sorte en 3 ans d'activité et nous ne pouvions rien faire d'autre en attendant que notre prestataire corrige le problème. Je vous serais reconnaissant de ne pas juger la qualité et l'intérêt de l'activité en vous basant uniquement sur cet incident technique rarissime. C'est pourquoi je serais ravi de vous permettre de rejouer gratuitement dans des conditions optimales (voir notre mail). En vous remerciant pour votre compréhension, Escapement,

awesome.
visit the city of Bordeaux while having fun. No time constraint since we realized the adventure in 3h00 instead of 2h30. We took the time to listen to the little anecdotes and think about the puzzles

Super walk with puzzles
Escape game complete. Lots of things to see, fun and sometimes difficult riddles (like closed escape games). We went around Bordeaux following the course and we had fun!

Outdoor escape-game | The Bordeaux robbery: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Bordeaux.
How much does Outdoor escape-game | The Bordeaux robbery cost?
+
Prices start at $17 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Bordeaux usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Outdoor escape-game | The Bordeaux robbery take?
+
Plan for about 2.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Bordeaux is not rushed.
Is Outdoor escape-game | The Bordeaux robbery worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 65 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.4/5 across 26 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Bordeaux, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Outdoor escape-game | The Bordeaux robbery?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Outdoor escape-game | The Bordeaux robbery suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Outdoor escape-game | The Bordeaux robbery?
+
Around 9 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Bordeaux can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Bordeaux and add a light layer if any part of the 2.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Outdoor escape-game | The Bordeaux robbery start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Bordeaux within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Bordeaux?
+
On Outty we rank every Bordeaux experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Saint-Emilion Electric Bike Day Tour with Wine Tastings & Lunch, Saint-Émilion Afternoon Tour - 2 Grand crus & French apéritif, Graves & Saint-Emilion Wine Tour | 3 Châteaux & Gourmet Picnic. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Bordeaux?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Bordeaux?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Outdoor escape-game | The Bordeaux robbery?
+
Included: Escape game. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Outdoor escape-game | The Bordeaux robbery?
+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
Is Outdoor escape-game | The Bordeaux robbery wheelchair or stroller accessible?
+
The operator notes: Wheelchair accessible; Infants and small children can ride in a pram or stroller; Transportation options are wheelchair accessible; and All areas and surfaces are wheelchair accessible. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.
What happens to Outdoor escape-game | The Bordeaux robbery if the weather is bad?
+
