Real Escape Barbados
About This Museum
Okay, so this place is way more than a museum—it's an escape room center where you become the main character in your own adventure. Instead of just looking at history, you're literally locked in a room and have to solve a series of tricky puzzles based on Barbadian history and pirate lore to get out. The whole thing is an adrenaline-pumping race against the clock that feels like you've stepped into a movie. It’s seriously the most fun and immersive way to 'experience' a story I've ever had.
Collection Highlights
The 'collections' here are the themed rooms themselves, like 'The Bajan Pirate Treasure' where you follow clues from old maps and ship logs, or 'The Governor's Secret' which is full of colonial-era artifacts you have to investigate.
Visitor Information
You absolutely need to book ahead online because these adventures are super popular and spaces fill up fast. It's right in Bridgetown, making it a perfect activity for a group of friends or family looking for something different to do.
Architecture & Building
It's housed in a modern, unassuming building—but don't let the outside fool you, because the magic is all on the inside where they've built these incredibly detailed sets.
