★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 103 reviews · 1 hour (approx.) · from $48Our pick

At Escape Hunt Brussels, your private group gets 60 minutes to solve a creative escape game in a carefully decorated setting. The English-language experience includes a team photo, and the coordinator may help match your room to your group, as happened for one family with young children. Meet at Rue de Livourne 13 in Saint-Gilles.

“We had a blast with this escape room. We actually had picked a different room but it was meant for smaller children so they pivoted to one they felt our kids would most enjoy. The coordinator jumped into character and was an absolute joy to play along with. And after we escaped with 7 minutes left we had some snacks waiting for us! Fun time!”
