5 ★Frequently asked questions
What kind of food will we pick up on our journey?
We won’t give away too much here, it is part of the mystery after all! But you can safely expect gourmet foods from local artisan producers, including your traditional picnic foods such as cheese, meats, fruits and crackers. Naturally, as artisan producers are unique to the different destinations, the final picnic content varies slightly between them.
Can you accommodate dietary requirements?
Absolutely! We can cater for most dietary needs at no extra cost, including gluten-free, vegan, and vegetarian options. You can also let us know about any allergies when booking. We do our best to accommodate pregnancy requests and recommend pescatarians book as vegetarians.
Please note, some dietary options may not be available on all routes. This will be clearly shown when booking.
Do I need to pay for food on the day?
All food is covered in the cost of your experience.
When will I get my clues?
We’ll email your clues a day or two before your picnic. Inside, you’ll find everything you need, including fun puzzles, games and hints to lead you to each stop. Please note, you'll need a mobile phone with internet access on the day of your experience.
What if I’d like to bring children?
Our Mystery Picnics with Friends are best suited to adults and teens. If you’re bringing younger kids (around 3–12 years), we recommend choosing a Family Mystery Picnic instead. Children under three can join free of charge.
Where do I eat my picnic?
We will always have a picnic spot planned for you, be that a picnic area, a park or even a winery. Please note that picnic set up is not included, so you are welcome to find a spot and settle in to eat. We also recommend bringing along a picnic blanket if you have one, in case you decide to settle on the grass.
What does 'ends undercover' mean?
Your picnic ends in an area that includes some covered spots for shade or rain. These areas are not reserved, so they’re available on a first come, first served basis.
What does 'ends indoors' mean?
Indoor locations are at one of our local providers. We do our best to secure you a spot, but it is on a first come, first served basis.
What time will my experience start?
Most Mystery Picnics begin between 10am and 12pm, although this can vary depending on your chosen route. Your exact start time will be listed in your confirmation email once you’ve booked.
While most routes are flexible, some may include stops that require you to arrive by a specific time. We’ll always let you know if timing is important for your route within your clues, otherwise you can take the day at your own pace and enjoy exploring along the way.
How long does the experience go for?
Duration can vary, but most Mystery Picnics are designed to be a 3-4 hour round trip, including enjoying your picnic. You can definitely take longer if you want to go on a few detours to explore the region a bit more.
