25+ Fun Things to Do in Ottawa (Part 2), Ottawa, Canada

Escape rooms are one of the most fun and unique things to do in any city you visit. Since my cousin owns an escape room on Cape Cod (and is slightly obsessed), we’ve been bitten a bit by the escape room bug.

If you’re looking for a good escape room in the area you’re visiting, be sure to check out the Facebook page: Escape Room Enthusiasts (also, if you’re still not sure what an escape room is, check out this article).

Unfortunately, the escape room we wanted to try had a flood just before our trip, so they were temporarily closed down for repairs. But here are a couple suggestions if you want to try an escape room in Ottawa:

- Jigsaw Escape Rooms - This escape room is the easiest to get to, as it is located right in the ByWard Market neighborhood. They also had a lot of fun themes to their rooms, so Jason and I were excited to try them!

- Room Escape Ottawa - This was the most highly recommended escape room, based on my research. We chose to go with Jigsaw Escape Rooms over Room Escape because it was easier to get to (You will have to either drive or take the bus to Room Escape), and because we were personally more interested in their room themes.

- Escape Manor - Escape Manor is another popular escape room in Ottawa. They also have a restaurant/bar, darts AND bocce ball, so if you are looking for some entertainment, look no further. It is also easy to walk to their downtown location. ...... (follow the instructions below for accessing the rest of this article).
