My Mystery Picnic with Friends Experience from AmazingCo
Imagine a day filled with laughter, camaraderie, and the thrill of the unknown. That’s exactly what you’ll get with the AmazingCo Mystery Picnic with Friends Experience. I recently enjoyed this adventure in the quaint town of Mount Dora, Florida. In this blog post, I’ll delve into the details of this unique adventure, highlighting the picturesque setting, the suspenseful twists, and the joyous moments that make it a must-try for locals and visitors alike.
Unlocking the Mystery
Mount Dora, nestled in the heart of Florida, serves as the perfect backdrop for the AmazingCo Mystery Picnic. Known for its cobblestone streets, historic architecture, and scenic beauty, the town creates an enchanting atmosphere for an unforgettable day out with friends or family. As you embark on this mysterious journey, be prepared to be captivated by the hidden gems and surprises that Mount Dora has to offer.
AmazingCo has experiences in multiple different cities and in various formats. You can book an experience at home, for couples, for friends, and for families. It is my new favorite way to explore a new location!
The Adventure Begins
The experience will begin the day before you are set to head to your location.
We received an email with a riddle to uncover our starting point. AmazingCo also provided a checklist of items to bring with us to be prepared for all our adventures. This list included a cooler or cooler bag to carry your picnic items, a water bottle, pen and paper (we didn’t end up using this) and cutlery items.
The experience only allows you to solve one clue at a time, so you don’t know where you’re headed until the adventure begins!
This was a great way to build the suspense and keep us engaged the entire trip. Once we solved our first clue, we were given the address to our starting point. I recommend doing this the day before so you can appropriately plan for time and traffic.
Cracking the Code
Upon arrival at the designated meeting point, we received another riddle/puzzle for our next stop. The group dynamic comes into play as you work together to decode the messages and unveil the secrets that will guide you through Mount Dora’s hidden treasures. The goal is to visit all the predetermined locations.
At each stop, you will pick up a piece of your picnic. It was amazing to experience all the different local restaurants and cafés and we picked up plenty of food!
Exploring Mount Dora’s Gems
Mount Dora’s allure lies in its historic charm, and the AmazingCo Mystery Picnic ensures you explore its most captivating spots. From scenic parks to quaint coffee shops, each location holds a piece of the puzzle. Whether you’re a local or a first-time visitor, this experience offers a fresh perspective on the town’s beauty and history.
Spoiler Alert
A picnic isn’t complete without delicious treats, and AmazingCo ensures that your gastronomic journey is as delightful as the adventure itself. One of the features that I greatly appreciated was AmazingCo’s ability to accommodate food allergies. When booking the experience, I selected that I would need items that are gluten free. They also had other options such as vegan and vegetarian. I always recommend confirming with the restaurant when picking up your food.
AmazingCo then works with the vendors to adjust the selections to accommodate your food allergies. In our experience, everyone was informed, and I felt very safe in eating all the items. Below I have listed all the stops we made as well as the items that we picked up.
One Flight Up Café – We enjoyed a delicious hummus plate with fresh veggies and tortilla chips as well as their spinach dip. Both were amazing!
Scoops on 5th – We picked up 2 chocolate chip cookies and a gluten free scone.
Cody’s on 4th Café – We selected two salads (A Caesar and a Greek) as well as 4 drinks.
The Salted Fry – This restaurant was 100% gluten free (Amazing!!). We selected two sandwiches which came with their signature fries.
Local Artisans
A unique feature about this experience was that each location also came with suggestions for where to shop/other fun activities.
We took our time at each stop and explored the nearby shops. Many of the shops were selling local merchandise from jewelers, artists, and craftsmen. We love shopping local and enjoyed browsing as we got an inside perspective into this quaint town.
Capturing the Moments
Don’t forget to bring your camera or smartphone – the AmazingCo Mystery Picnic guarantees picturesque moments at every turn. From candid shots of your friends immersed in solving clues to scenic views of Mount Dora, you’ll want to capture the magic of this day.
I enjoyed sharing our adventure on social media and looking through the designated hashtags to see other people’s experiences on their trips.
Pro Tip
The ending clue of the mystery picnic will lead you to your picnic location to enjoy all the items you have picked up along the way. However, on the day of our experience, it ended up raining all day.
The weather was not ideal for a picnic. Instead, we ate most of our food inside the restaurants along the way. Even though Amazingco orders everything to-go, the local restaurants didn’t mind if we sat inside and enjoyed. This also gave us time to rest our legs as many of the experiences require a good amount of walking.
Conclusion
In the heart of Mount Dora, the AmazingCo Mystery Picnic with Friends stands out as a truly unique and unforgettable experience. From the thrill of solving clues to the delight of gourmet treats and the joy of shared moments, this adventure promises a day filled with laughter, discovery, and bonding. If you’re ready to unlock the magic hidden within Mount Dora’s streets, gather your friends, embrace the unknown, and let the AmazingCo Mystery Picnic be your guide.
