Ice Village Manchester Ice Tiki Bar and Ice Cavern Review: November 2019

The Ice Village Manchester has an exciting new adult addition to this year’s program including the tropical Ice Tiki Bar with ice themed sculptures.

Ice Tiki Bar

Don one of the thermal capes and enjoy the many photo opportunities. Warm and welcoming the Tiki team are on hand to make sure your Tiki experience is on point.

Super staff member Sarah was more than happy to take a snap or two for guests which was nice to see.

The experience includes one themed cocktail in a cool ice glass.  They also offer a mocktail choice too appropriately called the Manc-ini which was delicious.

Feel the South Pacific vibes and chill out…literally in this cool ice themed paradise.

Breakout Chester Dark Magic and Excalibur Escape Game #Review

Breakout Chester Dark Magic and Excalibur Escape Game Review: November 2019

Breakout Chester located smack bang in the middle of the city is the perfect place for cracking clues and plenty of laugh out loud moments.

Dark Magic

These are dark times and upon exploring corridors, halls and stairways, myself and team of wonderful wizard’s found an exciting secret passage leading to an unknown room.

Intrepidly entering the unknown room, the air goes cold and we felt the presence of ancient Dark Magic!  It was our challenge to overcome this ancient power.

With a swish and flick of a wand, we cast spells onwards to victory, our professor will be most proud of us.

Excalibur

Be brave warriors, prepare to fight the fight, as myself and my fellow knights had been kidnapped from Camelot.

Being held captive in a tower whilst the intruders are disguising themselves as us.

The challenge was to find our way out of the tower, back to the round  table and prove our worth by being the true king by removing the sword from the stone…
