Pros
Verdict
Overall, customers express strong satisfaction with AmazingCo's mystery picnics, praising the seamless blend of sightseeing, puzzle-solving, and local food discovery. While a subset of participants notes occasional issues with portion sizes, pricing, or technical hiccups, the overwhelming sentiment highlights a well-organised and uniquely entertaining day out for couples, families, and friends.
An awesome experience! My partner and I had an excellent time from beginning to end. The selected places felt very well suited for us and the day was overall exactly what we hoped it would be. Definitely recommend to others!
Must do experience! I have done three picnics now with the most recent including an overnight stay with my fiancé. I was nervous because I didn’t know what to expect but now I can’t stop telling everyone to do it. We plan to buy this experience instead of gifts each anniversary now
Booked for a birthday surprise and didn’t disappoint! All the stops were amazing and the staff who greeted were more than welcoming! In between destinations there were little picture opportunities, questions to be asked amongst the group and beautiful scenery throughout! The money that was spent was well worth the end result! We took home almost half of our mystery picnic as there was just so much!

I enjoyed a wonderful B-day today on my mystery picnic adventure in New Hope, PA & Lambertville, NJ, created by AmazingCo. I highly recommend this event if you are looking for something different than the norm. Each clue lead us to a new destination where we met the most delightful business owners while we picked up scrumptious treats for our… Read more · 1
picnic. We leisurely walked around New Hope and Lambertville, taking in the sights of these two picturesque towns. You do work up a sweat once you’ve reached your final destination before heading out to enjoy your picnic feast. The weather couldn’t have been more perfect!
Mystery picnic – I had an excellent experience with amazing and co I decided to do the mystery picnic at the Barossa valley. The food was amazing, and so was the picnic destination. I definitely recommend the mystery picnic Show details · 1

Incredible experience – This was a birthday gift and was so incredible. We hadn’t explored Noosa before and this was the perfect way to see it all. So many beautiful local stores to support, and so many beautiful spots along the way to check out. I couldn’t recommend the picnic enough. Great gift idea too!! Show details · 1

This experience was so much fun for me and my husband. We saw Newport in a new way!!! The owner of Cru Cafe and staff were so friendly, they were expecting us and went out of their way to make us feel special. I can say the same about Inpopnito and the owner, just super friendly. Bar Cino was the perfect end to our mystery picnic, we sat and… Read more · 1

This was our third adventure with AmazingCo. We loved this location. We were in Big Bear California and visited some local places to pick up our items for our picnic. Myself, my husband, and our dog had an amazing time. We even had enough food left over for dinner that night. Can't wait to go on our next adventure with amazing company Show reply
Fabulous mystery tour around Bath. Had fun solving the clues & collected some good quality goodies on the way Ended up at a fab wine & bottle shop - so nice we stayed for a glass All the retailers were friendly & we met some great people doing their tour Would recommend if visiting a new city as a good way to see the sights & learn about the place… Read more · 1

What an awesome day out on our mystery picnic in Fremantle. The surprises just kept coming, solving clues(may have cheated a couple of time) but so much fun. The local suppliers were ready and so very friendly, we also bought extras at these interesting shops we would never have found. Such a brilliant and different way to enjoy, definitely will be doing another mystery tour, we’ll job team Show details · 1
Amazingco are amazing, what a great day we had discovering the Mt Macedon area and enjoying our picnic and night away. Show details · 1
Such a great adventure, solving riddles and clues to get your goodies, plus the moments to stop and connect with your love one with fun questions. Great value for money. Would definitely do again Show reply
We had an amazing adventure on Father’s Day solving clues, picking up our lunch treats, exploring the area and enjoying our lunch on the docks by Lonsdale Quay. Great quality, variety and more than enough, food. Show details · 1

AmazingCo was a wonderful and delicious experience. The picnic scavenger hunt took us to parts of Georgetown that I never knew existed. The puzzles were fun and not too hard and food was delicious. From lattes to turkey and brie sandwiches,… Read more · 1
everything was perfect. I highly recommend if you want a fun, mysterious, and yummy date with your significant other.
Follow-up · To answer follow up questions: 1. Was the area busy? In the morning no. But early afternoon Georgetown gets very busy. Its pretty normal for it to be tourist central. 2. How challenging were the puzzles? Very manageable and very engaging with the environment. Nothing stumped us. 3. Picnic setup? You should bring a blanket if you want to sit on… Read more
I ordered a board game from Amazon Australia on the 3rd of May. As it was coming from the US, the expected delivery date was May 12th. On May 11th, I got a message saying it was "to be delivered tomorrow". On May 12th I got "to be delivered today".… Read more
On May 13th I got "Delayed, not yet shipped". Since then it's been a battle to get anything happening. I've tried at least six times to get the matter resolved but I've met with ZERO progress. I still don't have my game (it was in stock, by the way) some 18 days later. I am at a loss where to go. If you do order from Amazon, make sure that it's not from the US, as you probably won't receive it!
Follow-up · After much trying, I was finally contacted by an Australian Amazon rep that could get the US Amazon to do something! Within a week, my game was on the way and because they ended up sending the cancelled order as well, I got two! However, I didn't have to pay for the second one! The game is great and our family likes the one they got for free, too!… Read more
We spent Mother’s Day, the 10th of May 2026, doing the most beautiful Mystery Picnic adventure through the Macedon Ranges, and it truly turned into one of the most special family days. We started our drive at 7:30am, making a quick stop at… Read more · 1
Fountain Gate to pick up our matching outfits for the day and grab some breakfast before continuing on our little adventure. Bub drifted back off to sleep while we drove through the countryside, ready for a slow and peaceful day together.
The Mystery Picnic experience was so thoughtfully done, solving clues that guided us through the gorgeous little towns of Trentham, Kyneton, Newham and Macedon, collecting different picnic foods along the way. Every stop felt unique and charming, and it gave us the chance to explore places we may never have otherwise visited.
Walking through each beautiful town with our baby sleeping peacefully most of the day, soaking in the fresh air, the quiet moments and simply enjoying being a family of three made the experience even more magical. The whole day felt slow, gentle and full of love.
Such a special way to celebrate my first Mother’s Day, highly recommend for anyone wanting a relaxed, meaningful day out filled with beautiful scenery, delicious food and little moments you’ll remember forever.
Follow-up · Parking was like trying to park in any town street, just in the side of the road near the location. We did have to park further away for one of the clues but was nice to walk around the town on the way there. Best food item would have been the range of cheeses from one place. Clues were pretty easy, one clue I had no idea where to even begin but my husband knew how to do it straight away. Other than that they were super easy to complete.

Was gifted this for Christmas and used it last weekend. Great way to experience the city I lived in all my life. Experience the small chains! Well worth it!!!
Great day out. My partner and I were gifted a voucher and weren't sure what to expect or if it'd be fun, but we ended up having a really great day and it took us to some unexpected but cool places. Also the food was great and there was so much! Show details · 1

Ridiculously overpriced and underwhelming. Mystery Picnic in the Swan Valley WA. Received less than half the value paid in food items, five "clues", for locations via puzzles, two of which were at the same venue. Venue 1 we received one quiche (as in, for one person), one piece of banana bread, a loaf of bread and two drinks. Venue 2 in the same… Read more
location we recieved crackers and fruit. Following further query, it turned out the supplier had forgotten our cheese (as they weren't sure what pescetarian meant), and we were handed half a round of camembert, and some cubes of other cheeses. Venue 3 we were handed a box of coconut rough. Venue 4 we chose a mustard, with sweet or savoury option on offer.
Valentines Day add-on ($20) was some additional online themed prompts and that was it.
All up paid $180 for the disappointing experience. The day was meant to be a special Valentines day event which was soured by feeling epically ripped off of our hard earned money. Two emails providing feedback have gone unanswered. Please save your money, buy some nice food, and go on your own adventure picnic
I received a delivery from Amazon yesterday and I was livid and extremely disappointed yet again......ARAMEX does all the deliveries in Sydney as well as the Metro areas as I live in Penrith. When I collected my cardboard box I noticed a tear all… Read more
across the length of the box which was not a straight tear but looked more made deliberate as it was literally as though someone had put their thumb or finger in the box and slowly dragged it.
It appears no matter how much people complain about ARAMEX nothing changes......NOTHING CHANGES.
Follow-up · So far my delivery my delivery experience from Amazon has somewhat improved but could be better.
We did the Mclaren Vale for couples experience and it was a good but I wouldn’t say Amazing. Definitely not value for money. We only visited 4 places and I thought there would have been at least 6. There was only one winery and thought there would have been at least 2 given that Mclaren Vale is a wine region. We arrived at Chapel Hill winery as… Read more
our last stop and we received 2 pieces of cake which was quite nice. We got a Port sample which was given to us in a small preserving jar, this was a bit weird! I thought visiting the winery we would have received a bottle of wine to complement the picnic food. The highlight would have been the fresh sourdough loaf of bread and a visit to beautiful Port Willunga beach ️

Recently did the Beechworth picnic, upgrade to the premium, really enjoyed it, a great way to see Beechworth and surrounds. Will now look at some of the other regional locations if this was the benchmark. Show details · 1
My boyfriend and I did our mystery picnic in Newport, Rhode Island and it was awesome. The puzzles to figure out the locations were fun.

Our Half Moon Bay picnic was fun! We paired up to solve games that led us to various businesses as we filled up our picnic basket. Disappointed that no bread came with picnic, but everything else was provided (and we bought extra cheese and more at several businesses). We also took our time and shopped downtown by visiting the shops that were next… Read more · 1
to the participating businesses. We found a lot of great stuff! Ae ended the day at the beach and it was lovely!
My boyfriend and I went on the Mystery Picnic at Darling Harbour/The Rocks. I’ve lived in Sydney all my life but my boyfriend was laughing at how I looked like a tourist exploring so many spots I’d never known about. We had plenty of time to take things at our own pace and there were also some nice bonding exercises/questions included. The booking experience is very simple and reliable. It’s a great gift for friends, family & yourself. Show reply
