While Cairenes may have a passion for escape rooms, we think that laser tag deserves more love. And if there’s one thing that How I Met Your Mother has taught us, it’s that there is no age limit to playing laser tag. It’s the perfect weekend activity: just grab your closest friends and shoot each other without the pain of getting hit by a paintball or the excruciating heat of outdoor games. Here are five places where you can enjoy a few rounds with some friends.

Adrenalin Park, 6th October

Adrenalin Park hosts the number one paintball arena in the Middle East, and it’s what they are most famous for. What many people don’t know, though, is that they also have a fantastic laser-tag arena in their Dandy Mall branch on the Cairo – Alexandria Desert Road. Their guns have a very realistic feel to them, so it fully immerses you in the experience. They welcome players from the age of seven.
