Escape The Past Win 2025 Trip Advisor Traveller's Choice Award

July 2025

Escape the Past, Edinburgh’s immersive escape room company, is thrilled to announce it has been awarded a TripAdvisor Travellers’ Choice Award for 2025 – placing it among the top 10% of visitor attractions worldwide based on consistently outstanding visitor reviews.

This accolade is based on real customer feedback and recognises the world’s best venues that deliver exceptional experiences time and again. With hundreds of 5-star reviews, Escape the Past has become a must-visit experience for both locals and visitors alike.

“Our team is absolutely delighted,” said Chris Wood, founder of Escape the Past. “We’ve always aimed to weave real Edinburgh history into every experience – and it’s always amazing to see our guests responding so positively.”

Uniquely Edinburgh Experiences

Escape the Past offers a deeply atmospheric journey into the darkest corners of Edinburgh’s history through two award-winning indoor escape rooms; ‘The Anatomist’ - based on the city’s grave robbing-era medical history, and ‘The Deacon’s Cabinet’ – a historical heist based on the crimes of Edinburgh’s infamous crook, Deacon Brodie.

For those looking to explore Edinburgh during the summer months, Escape the Past also offers Outdoor City Trails. Their first: ‘A Trail of Burke & Hare’ launched last month, combining a self-guided walking tour with escape room style puzzles and blending actual historical locations with a thrilling contemporary mystery to create the perfect family activity for the summer holidays.
