Our Mystery Picnic in Notting Hill was great - even though there was a mistake with one of the clues (that has since been put right)! There was the right amount of walking to make it fun, not a chore, and the food was of good quality and quantity. They also met our dietary requirements easily - no beef, pork or alcohol for at least one of us. And… Read more
customer service before the day itself was very good: I had made an error with the date of the booking, but it was quickly and politely corrected for me.
I would definitely recommend a Mystery Picnic to any couple and would like to do another one in a different area myself.
Fantastic picnic experience, visiting places to collect our picnic treats, the food was all freshly prepared and varied, and we ended up with plenty of choice. Would highly recommend, we used our mystery tour in an area we had never been too, this gave us the opportunity to see areas we off the main tourist route that we may not have found. Thank you for a fun few hours x

A very nice mystery picnic was gifted to us from my parents through AmazingCo and we chose Sedona for it. It Was like a scavenger hunt with clues to find items around town for our picnic with our final destination ending up at Crescent Moon picnic area in Sedona, AZ which, amazingly, was where my son and Daughter-in-Law got married.

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
It was a fun adventure with friends. Quality of food provided was excellent in Newcastle. My brother did centennial park and food quality was mixed. Wouldn’t repeat it in the same location but would recommend to first timers. Value is a bit low. Show details · 1

I surprised my family over from the UK wirh a mystery picnic in the Barossa. I was happy with all the stops and it was a great way to show them around wirh a bit of a twist! I was happy to actually find some now spots and some tourist attractions on the way which I had never visited before. I would highly recommend this for a cute date or to show the family around if they are visiting our beautiful SA! Show details · 1

What a fabulous experience our Mystery picnic was. Not deterred by torrential rain, we braved the conditions as we went about collecting our delicious and plentiful picnic supplies. We spent a lot of time talking to the locals who were all warm and welcoming and more than happy to share their knowledge of the Clare Valley region. Matt from… Read more · 1
Sevenhills suggested an alternative picnic spot that was undercover and we feasted looking out over the beautiful valley. The quizzes and questions were fun and we cannot thank enough the many businesses that are involved. Highly recommend

I booked the Mystery Picnic with Friends at Evanston and I had so much fun! I loved solving the puzzles and figuring out clues to the next food destination. The distances between each stop were also great because it gave us a moment to walk and admire our surroundings. I’m also a food adventurer so it was exciting to try the different food items… Read more · 1
that were prepared for us at the different locations. Since we had a 3 year old with us in the group, I would love to try the Mystery Picnic with Family.
AVOID AVOID AVOID… Honestly such a disappointment!!! my partner organised this for a belated Valentine’s Day in NOOSA and it was incredibly low budget… we had only FOUR actual food stops which included a croissant each, a small salad to share, bread stick (stale) and the worst cheese board I have ever seen.. it included cabanossi, very cheap… Read more
perhaps hotdog/ cheap salami, cocktail onions and cheap cheese and thrown in a cardboard box all together. That’s IT for $160.00!! oh and a bottle each of normal juice you can buy at the supermarket from the fridge NOT freshly squeezed or a decent size . Calling this a picnic is a joke we chucked most of it out as the last stop was so unappetising.
I mean in this economy this was taking the Pi** . Would recommend those wanting to do it in NOOSA keeping your money in your pocket as although the shops were super friendly.. the bad food ruined the tour and lack of shops and planning had us finished in under one hour and felt it was overall lazy planning. Shame as from the looks of it the other areas they do this tour put in the effort!!

What a wonderful day out we had on our picnic in Yarra Glen. We saw amazing countryside during the collection of our picnic food and drinks. Enjoyed beautiful wineries and met wonderful people along the way doing the mystery picnic and it was exciting solving the clues. Value for money was excellent 6 hours of entertainment for the price is awesome. Highly recommend doing one of these mystery picnics. Show details · 1

Twas a beautiful cloudy day. If it was sunny, I don’t think we’d enjoy it dripping in sweat! The cheese shop was the best out of all shops as they gave us a generous box. Hope they keep participating in this service! Be ready to walk up to 20 min back to the first cafe you go to. I was lucky to have an uber voucher to use when going back (too tired lol). I recommend this adventure ! Show details · 1

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.
Such an amazing experience. Food was fantastic and the picnic area was beautiful! We really enjoyed being shown around our local areas and shown parts that we haven’t seen yet! We would absolutely love to experience this again sometime soon! Show details · 1
Follow-up · Lots of different food was provided! Lots of fresh goodies like cheese bread and meats, with a few extra things too. We did Adelaide hills so for us it was based around Handorf and its surrounding areas. No guide was provided, it’s designed for you to play games along the way (word puzzles, picture games etc) to find your next location. All clues… Read more
This was our second amazing co adventure and we had a wonderful time. Even though the weather was rainy, it didn’t make a difference to our experience. Great day great experiences and fab accommodation. Will definitely do again! Show details · 1

We recently did the Margaret River mystery picnic day out as a family. It was on Easter Saturday, so I was very grateful to have all venues and experiences booked in advance. There was no stress and we felt like VIPs. It was booked as an occasion for my birthday and they added extra features which made it more special. The venues and staff were… Read more · 1
great. My kids (3 & 5yo) had an enjoyable day. I felt like it was very good value for money taking 6 hours to complete at a leisurely pass. If you’d like to use my referral code ashlee-8crp you can get $15 off your first booking.
This was a fantastic experience. The clues were fun to solve but there were ways around them if too hard. It was fun to go to different places and collect a variety of produce. All staff at each establishment were very friendly. The food was delicious and the final picnic spot was beautiful and well chosen. A really delightful way to explore the Yarra Valley. Already booked our next picnic for Mother’s Day! 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
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 ️

We did the mystery picnic to Mandurah. We really enjoyed Mandurah and found walking around very engaging and interesting. Shout out to the giant sculptures. My problem with the amazing co mystery picnic was the food. It did not match the price. You shared a muffin, got a tray of cheese, a few biscuits, some carrots and cucumber, etc. The last stop… Read more
was at a brewery in an industrial park, we were both laughing at this stage! I have no idea why anyone would want to visit this concrete jungle. We were given a tiny wrap to share. It seemed really stingy when the experience cost $160. We were told to bring a bread knife and cups but I have no idea why? Interestingly the clues given by the online app did not register correct answers. It was very glitchy and we had to skip ahead. We went off track from the experience and ended up seeing more giant sculptures and went to the beach..

Had a great time in Santa Barbara. Plenty of cool places and walking through downtown through all the markets was very fun. The actual picnic spot was great and we loved the botanical garden. Lot's of cool places and little shops to visit. No unexpected fees, we appreciated the tea/coffee pickup midway through. There was A LOT of food. Way more… Read more · 1
than we could eat. Maybe a little too many sweet treats, but overall a great experience and we will definitely do it again at another location.
We had so much fun being "tourists" in our own state. We headed out to Bellingham, WA a town nearby where we felt "away" but not too far to get back within the day. We enjoyed discovering all the yummy food stops and the mystery elements of the scavenger hunt. We especially loved the encrypted messages, creative clues, but most of all the chance to have an adventure together on a unique date-day out. The food was an absolute feast, so delicious!
