This London taxi treasure hunt was formed with the sole intention of providing fun, sociable, challenging and interesting team building activity for groups of 10-400+ people.
There are currently established taxi treasure hunts in over 40 UK & European locations, with new destinations popping up all the time! There are also a number of different formats, which can work for either city centre or rural locations, on-site hotels and conference centres, on land or out at sea, on foot or in a vehicle!
For this popular taxi treasure hunt format, take to the street in your very own London taxi! Your driver will take you and your team around the streets in search of the answers that will lead you to victory. Each team will start and finish from a chosen venue in the local area. This can be a pub, hotel, meeting room or your own office depending on what suits your requirements. Teams will have approximately 3 hours within which to complete the taxi treasure hunt.
Your group will be divided into separate teams for the taxi treasure hunt. We recommend a team size of 3-5 people to ensure that everyone stays involved. You can pick these teams beforehand or they can be randomly selected on the day.
Each team will need to work their way around the 8 Monopoly Zones in search of the answers to the pre-set clues. The answers to these clues are directly linked to the number of houses and hotels that you are able to ‘build’. Thus, the more clues you answer during the taxi treasure hunt, the greater the amount of money that is earned from your property empire.
In addition a series of amusing team tasks will be set during the taxi treasure hunt, the completion of which will earn that team ‘Bonus Money’. Each team will be issued with a digital camera in order to take photographic proof that these tasks have been completed.
Any ‘Bonus Money’ that is earned through these team tasks is added to that team’s overall property portfolio. The team that generates the most income through their property empire will win the treasure.
A CD of your pictures is sent to you after the taxi treasure hunt as a lasting and entertaining memento of your day.
