Such a cool way to spend an hour! We initially booked online via their easy booking system and did the “catch me if you can” room, such a fun, interactive, strategic thinking game! Enjoyed it so much we went for dinner and booked a 8.45pm game in their “strip club R18” escape room- wow! Next level! A lot harder but hilarious!!! So funny and a few things that made you laugh out loud at how ludacris they were!! MUST DO!

ZORB Rotorua

The experience of rolling down a hill inside a giant inflatable ball has been an iconic adventure experience since ZORB was invented at this very location way back in 1997! To this day, Rotorua is the ONLY location in New Zealand where you can experience this amazingly fun and bizarre bucket list activity. Please note as of 17 May 2019, ZORB Rotorua was recently purchased back by the original inventors of ZORB (Andrew and Dave Akers) the old ZORB site at 149 Western Road, Rotorua has been permanently closed and our new site (previously known as OGO Rotorua) and is undertaking a rebrand back to ZORB. Please bear in mind when reading old reviews! As the inventors and creators of ZORB, we are excited to have our brand back and our mission is to give every single customer world class customer service, health and safety and value for money when experiencing the ridiculous hilarity that is rolling down a hill in a giant inflatable ball.

We visited 29-10-18. Thank you OGO Staff (Holly & Pete) for an awesome experience!!! Our kids absolutely loved the zig zag track as a trio, as well as the hot spa and added extra:) So far it is the highlight to their NZ holiday. The photos and Go-Pro video of their ride was definitely worth purchasing. Our coffees were also really good. Thank you.

Had a great experience from start to finish. We went on Sunday morning and the young man opening up was really friendly and efficient. The course was great fun with the added bonus of rabbits and a friendly dog to pat in the entrance. Good for kids and adults alike. Would go again.

Escape Masters

This internationally popular phenomenon promises a vivid experience where you can become the main character of a captivating mystery. An adventure, where teams are locked in a themed room and the common goal is to break out within an hour. To escape, they have to use objects from around the room, find clues and solve puzzles! It is a room filled with brainteasers, tricky riddles, locks, keys and a lot of fun. A choice of 4 experiences and identical rooms to race. Can you escape from New Zealand's first real-life escape game?

Reviewed By NickyC744 - Auckland, New Zealand

Really well set up, had a great time with my daughter and pretty stoked to get all the clues and escape with 25 minutes to spare!
