Gifts That Spark Curiosity and Fun

Looking for something a little different? Our experience gifts are designed to turn an ordinary day into something extraordinary. Here are just a few of the top picks that are proving popular across the North East:

Escape Room Adventure

Perfect for groups of friends, families, or puzzle-loving teens, escape rooms offer an immersive challenge that’s packed with fun and excitement. Locked in a themed room, your mission is to crack codes, solve puzzles, and beat the clock. It’s one of the best gifts for teenagers and young adults who love a thrill and it makes a fantastic birthday gift idea too.

Outdoor Escape Room Experience

Take the adventure to the streets with an outdoor escape room. This clever twist on the traditional format turns your city into the game board. Teams follow clues, solve riddles, and unlock secrets while exploring landmarks and hidden corners of cities like Leeds. It’s a brilliant way to discover a familiar place in a brand-new way, ideal for couples, families, or curious explorers.

Leisure, Scenery, and Something Delicious

If your gift recipient prefers something a bit more relaxed or indulgent, we’ve got plenty of ideas that blend sightseeing, good food, and the great outdoors.

York River Cruise

Give the gift of scenic serenity with a cruise along the River Ouse in York. This gentle experience offers panoramic views of one of England’s most historic cities, all from the comfort of a well-appointed riverboat. Whether you're celebrating an anniversary, planning a surprise outing, or looking for refined gifts for couples, a river cruise makes a classy and memorable choice.

Mystery Picnic Day Out

For foodies and explorers alike, the mystery picnic day out is a unique and tasty food experience. Participants receive cryptic clues that lead them to hand-picked local food spots where they collect ingredients for their picnic. It's a creative and delicious way to uncover charming towns, scenic countryside, and hidden gems, all while enjoying a mouth-watering feast at the end. This gift is especially well-suited to couples looking for a romantic day out or friends seeking something fun and different.
