The ultimate live action expedition!

Fun and not too scary. Good story. Be prepared to be part of the action (just need to have a sense of humor). Really liked the wax museum as well.

"Would give 0 if I could - awful & deceitful company who steal your money"

Arrived to be told it was closed & I'd be contacted & refunded by the manager - 1 month later they're still ignoring my emails even though they were supposed to contact me to issue a refund. I paid for this attraction months in advance and was so excited to see it. Fair enough, it was closed and may have been unforeseen (the colleague didn't seem to give much information on it or care) but to then be trusting in the company to contact me and refund me my money and that not happen - you should be ashamed of just stealing people's hard earned money. As a company, as a business your ethical standards are rock bottom.

Anyone who gives this experience a bad review is missing the point. This tells the story of San Francisco in a very entertaining way. The actors are funny and engaging. I loved it and am now taking my teens to it so that they can be "Shanghai'd" ... LOL

Was a bit disappointed with this attraction. Having been to London Dungeons several times I had high hopes for this one. This was not to be. Tour was disjointed and difficult to hear the presentation at times. The drop ride at the end was also an anticlimax.
