Our family has done 3 rooms at locked room and we have had a great experience each time. Highly recommend Titanic and fresh meat, very creative and overall great experiences! We have also done the wine room and would only recommend for beginners as it was not quite as intricate but still a good overall experience!

On top of this just being a super fun and unique activity, everyone @craft was awesome! Super friendly, helpful (especially with some throwing lessons, because it was my first time). We even met some local pros who let me throw their fancy axes! Highly recommend! This place would make for a great first date! 100% going back!
7. Old Market

Omaha preserves its historic place in time in this historic section of town where visitors can stroll along the cobbled streets and explore the many preserved buildings.
Reviewed By BoloBunch - Jacksonville, United States
This quaint old factory town with cobblestone streets, horse carriages, and cinderella rides, has some fun and delicious restaurants packed in the renovated factory buildings. Extremely walkable area for all restaurants in Old Market. On nice weather days/nights, the many outdoor terraces are chock full of people enjoying their time outside. There's a famous bar bike called The Patio Ride which meanders (lively) through the streets of Old Market. With the many parks and trails around the Old Market, walking it off never seemed so good. From microbrew beer to consignment stores to interesting shops, restaurants aren't the only thing that dot Old Market. Its a pretty cool place and one that pleasantly surprises most visitors.

I have been to a couple of Zoos, but Henry Doorly is truly something special. A good place to visit at all times of year (since they have indoor exhibits too), their IMAX is great and has plently of educational options for those interested in learning more about animals or nature through documentaries. Don't forget that the dome has an underground exhibit as well! They allow you to bring food and water to be sure to save money on that front!
