Are you stress-resistant, resourceful and enjoy working illegally? Then you might be the ideal smuggler who successfully gets his wares across the border! At Escape Room Rutbeek, you can now use all those qualities to complete the objective.

We are in the year 1953...

The Netherlands was in the midst of reconstruction and Germany was also experiencing shortages of foodstuffs such as coffee, tea, cigarettes, butter and salt. As a result, residents of the rural border area sought their own solutions and a prohibited trade between Dutch and German residents developed.

Smuggling took place in the evening and night to reduce the chances of being caught. If you were caught, the action was tough, because the customs officers, called commissaires, were very fanatical. The contraband was taken away and one disappeared into the cage for several days!

Suitable for smugglers of 12 years and above. It takes about 1 hour and you can sit with 3 to 6 people in the escape room to try to escape.
