Team Building Treasure Hunt in Central London

Around Christmas time in 2023, we had a builders company approach us based in Walton On Thames. They wanted us to organise their Christmas party.
We organised them an outstanding dinner and a dancing event the previous year that was quite formal, so this years they opted for something a little different. To fit this brief, we created them a treasure hunt bar crawl through Central London.
To make this a success we split their firm into several groups, who all got to compete against each other in a series of challenges to get throughout Central London the quickest. Nothing wrong with a bit of healthy competition to promote communication throughout the groups!

This included a mixture of finding cultural landmarks, drinking challenges (these went down the best!), and finding specific items. We added in a curveball, in that all challenge wins needed to be photographed and it was a race to the finish line!
After the hunt we decided a relaxing meal was in order, so we organised them a really fun arcade bar with sharing platters and LOTS of drinks to go around!
Love this idea - very different. Where did you start it?
I never would have thought of this for a company retreat! Such a good idea!
Noted for my next work team day!
I love these kind of events !
This is such a great idea for a corporate event!
