About
Adventure Quest Laser Tag is one of the more popular family entertainment options in the greater New Orleans area, located in Harahan just west of the city in the Clearview Mall complex. The combination of multi-level laser tag and escape rooms gives it an edge over single-activity venues, making it a legitimate half-day family destination rather than just a quick hour-long stop.
The laser tag arena uses multi-level design with fog effects and black lights — elements that transform what might otherwise be a simple running-around-shooting game into something with actual strategy and atmosphere. Kids ages 6 and up can genuinely participate, though older kids and teens will have the most fun strategizing and coordinating with teammates. The multi-level layout means even younger kids can find spots where they're not constantly getting tagged.
The escape rooms are a separate booking and require advance reservation for peak times. These are better suited for ages 10 and up, where kids can actually contribute to puzzle-solving. Having two distinct activities means a family can fill a solid 2-3 hours and feel like they got full value from the trip.
At a 4.5-star rating with nearly 700 reviews, Adventure Quest has earned consistent positive feedback from the New Orleans family community. The Harahan location is convenient for families staying in Metairie or the western suburbs, and about 20-25 minutes from downtown New Orleans.
For birthday parties, this venue sees heavy bookings — if that's your intention, plan at least 2-3 weeks ahead and call directly to discuss packages.

Why Kids Love It
Adventure Quest runs multi-level laser tag arenas with fog effects and black lights that create a completely different experience than just running around a flat room. Kids strategize about who guards which spots and form teams — younger kids and older kids can play together because the arena elements somewhat level the playing field. The escape rooms add a second activity that extends the visit into a real outing rather than a quick stop.
