Fort Boyard

We celebrated our 10-year-old daughter’s birthday: the kids enjoyed it, but the tea room was awful—dirty, dark, and it smelled as if someone had gotten sick before us. There are no windows, so you can’t air it out, and there’s no sink either. Plus it’s hard to get to: several keyed doors and many flights of stairs on foot. In the end, I’m disappointed with the organization.

Went with colleagues to Fort Boyard; everything was well done, the locations are beautiful, but essentially it’s a children’s format. There’s no tension or race against the clock, the tasks are simple, and it’s a bit boring for adults. The administrator and the actor were pleasant. It would be better either to clearly present it as a kids’ version or to make an adult format.

It was hard to get there—lots of stairs. The atmosphere and sound are great, and you move around the location a lot. Works well for a mixed-age group; there were tasks for everyone, but it’s hot in summer—bring water.

The quest matches the description; there are many locations, and the sets and music create a strong atmosphere. We didn’t notice any safety issues. At the end they gave a discount voucher for birthday guests. We’d like a bit more energy from the hosts.

It was perfect for a large birthday group. I especially appreciated that they provide helmets and protective coveralls for safety, and the hosts closely supervised the children throughout the entire game.

The game itself is very interesting, but there’s no ventilation: the banquet room is stuffy, and it’s hard to be in the play areas as well. Had we known about these conditions in advance, we wouldn’t have chosen it in the summer. For the quest itself — yes; for the service in the heat — no.

The kids liked it, but it was so stuffy that some felt unwell. The building's safety raises questions. The host and the photographer, however, did a great job.

I was pleased that for the riskier activities they provided helmets and jumpsuits, explained everything, and kept an eye on things. The actors were lovely, and the administrator helped with the organization and the room for the cake — everything was tidy and right on schedule.

The organization needs work: we had to wait until a room became available, and on our way out the next group was already waiting for us. The kids really enjoyed the quest itself. It would be nice to have monitors in the waiting room to watch how the kids are doing during the challenges.

The kids really enjoyed it, but it was hot in the party room, the air conditioner couldn’t cope, and there was nowhere to chill the drinks and the cake. The quest itself was great, but our cake melted—such a shame.

The quest was good; the host explained everything clearly. It was convenient that we could book through the website for the same day, and they were open during the holidays. Perfect for families; best suited for children around 9–13 years old.

We went as an adult team and expected more intensity and time pressure. The location is great, but the tasks felt childish, lacking the rush of a race. Great for families and kids — for us, it's a three out of five.

We enjoyed the quest; the challenges were lively and atmospheric. But it was quite hot, and climbing the stairs was tough, especially with bags. Otherwise, tons of emotions — we should have come when it wasn’t so hot.

We celebrated our son's 9th birthday, and the kids were over the moon! Shadow Master, keys, gold—just like on TV. The parents got into it too and had a blast; time flew by. Thanks to the host for the pace and the jokes.

The kids enjoyed it; the host was great. It’s a pity that parents can’t watch the progress on monitors—it would make waiting more convenient. Overall we’re satisfied; we’ll come back.
