Your perfect picnic spot awaits – you just have to find it first!
Picture this: a sun-dappled landscape, a blanket spread out on the grass, and a picnic basket brimming with tantalizing treats. But wait, there's a twist! With AmazingCo’s Mystery Picnics, you don’t know where you’ll end up. Similar to a treasure hunt, you’ll follow a set of clues and collect gourmet goodies along the way. By the end, you’ll have a full basket that’s ready to enjoy at a picturesque, surprise location.
Sounds like an incredible day, doesn’t it? We thought so too! That’s why we just had to reach out to AmazingCo to learn more. In this exclusive interview, we’ll go beyond the basket and uncover tons of decadent details. Join us as we reveal AmazingCo’s beginnings, their inspiration, and even their all-time favorite picnic food. Spoiler: it’s delicious!
1. What sparked the idea for your Mystery Picnic experiences?
The inspiration behind our Mystery Picnics originated from a personal experience shared by two of AmazingCo's co-founders, Jeremy and Silvia. They found themselves with the common challenge of planning a day out in a local region but struggling to decide where to go. This sparked an idea: to create an experience that eliminates the stress of planning and adds an element of surprise.
2. What sets your Mystery Picnics apart from traditional picnic experiences?
Imagine a picnic that goes beyond the ordinary – that's exactly what the AmazingCo Mystery Picnic offers. Instead of the usual static setting, you’ll solve clues and puzzles to uncover your next destination. It's not just about laying out a blanket; it's about decoding the day's adventure and getting to know each other better along the way. The element of surprise is at the heart of our Mystery Picnic.
But Mystery Picnics are not just about having fun, they also have a purpose. By introducing you to small businesses, we not only showcase the region but also support and engage with the local community. This adds a meaningful and connected touch to the picnic experience. It’s more than just a leisurely outing, it’s a way to immerse yourself in a vibrant neighborhood!
3. Can you walk us through what a typical Mystery Picnic experience looks like?
Absolutely! Guests receive their gameplay email usually 24-48 hours before their picnic. This gives them plenty of time to access the clues that will guide them through the day, all easily accessible on their cell phone.
Working together, they’ll solve clues and puzzles throughout the day. At each destination they’ll either pick up local food and drinks or enjoy an iconic sightseeing spot. This interactive layer sets our Mystery Picnics apart from the usual picnic setting.
4. How do you ensure that each Mystery Picnic is tailor-made to fit the unique tastes and preferences of your customers?
We ask customers a few questions to get to know them and their picnic party. We use this information to customize their picnic, whether they’re celebrating something special or simply noting their specific dietary requirements. After all, the Mystery Picnic is all about creating memorable moments and getting to know each other better.
5. What makes your picnics the ultimate gift and who would enjoy them?
Mystery Picnics are the ultimate gift because they’re completely customizable. You can pick who you spend the day with, whether it’s a romantic date for two, a group of friends, or a family adventure. With multiple Mystery Picnic locations across the USA, it’s a perfect way to spend the day exploring your local area or somewhere new.
6. How do you go about selecting the perfect locations for your Mystery Picnics?
Our customers help us decide where the next locations will be! We use customer feedback and interest to help us choose where to launch a new route.

Oh gosh, there are so many. Some of our favorites are when guests propose on our Mystery Picnics. We feel very privileged to be a part of someone’s special day and the team loves going above and beyond for special occasions.
8. What types of themes or clues do you incorporate into your picnics to keep them engaging and entertaining?
It varies by location and also by the type of picnic. We include a mix of easier clues and puzzles with some more difficult ones in each experience. We can’t share any more than that since our picnics are all about the mystery!
9. What do you hope participants take away from their Mystery Picnic experience?
We strive to create a fun day out where our customers can get to know a new location and each other a little bit better. At the end of the day, it’s all about having fun and building a memory together.
10. Lastly, what is your all-time favorite picnic food?
A cheese platter is always a winner in our book!
