The Escape Bus came to our house a couple weeks ago as a surprise for my wife as part of our celebration for our 2nd anniversary. (We had done an Escape room as one our first dates, so this was a nice throwback). It was a terrific experience, from the beginning to the end where Jonathon and Tyler made a custom "we escaped" sign with memories and jokes related to our marriage. The scenario was well prepared and executed, even with a rambunctious child and other family members just "having fun" (and not really helping my wife and I out with the puzzles lol). I was initially curious as to how enough puzzles and activities would be packed into a small bus, but we were impressed (and of course we did not finish on time :)) John and Tyler were helpful in providing hints via walktie talkies.

I called Jonathan and he went out of his way to help us out and ensure everything was fixed. They showed up earlier than expected and were so flexible and easy to work with during the event. Danny was the one who came and he was excellent with the kids. I would like to think our kids are well behaved, but it was a birthday party with 16 ten year olds. I’m sure they were a bit nuts.
