Front and centre is the Xmas Adventure, our tour for the festive season. You can book any of these tours as a team building event.
In teams, you puzzle your way through Bad Essen, collect points, and afterwards celebrate the team with the most points over dinner. The programme comes from myCityHunt, you choose the venue and menu yourselves.
The room is usually already sorted by the time anyone asks us for help with the Christmas party in Bad Essen — a restaurant booked, a table reserved, a menu half-chosen. What is missing is the bit before the meal, the bit that gets colleagues out of their coats and talking before the starters arrive. That is the part we bring: a puzzle tour, played in teams through the app, winding through the centre of Bad Essen past the Sonnenbrinkturm. No guide walking ahead, no script to follow — the app sets the riddles, codes and photo challenges, takes in the answers, and keeps score as the teams make their way across the city.
In Bad Essen the tour runs as a Xmas Adventure, an Escape Game, a Murder Mystery Tour or a Treasure Hunt, depending on the mood you want for the afternoon. Whichever format you pick, the route is fixed — the app leads every team along the same stations, past the same corners of Bad Essen, and how quickly a team gets through it is entirely down to them. Roughly four kilometres on foot, about three hours, nothing to carry but a charged phone. Teams compete against each other the whole way, with a team chat to needle the opposition and a leaderboard to settle who is actually winning.
Because the whole thing plays out on foot through the centre, the walk to dinner afterwards is short — the venue and the menu stay yours to arrange, the programme is ours to run. It costs from £ 15.99 per person plus VAT, you choose the date and time when you book, and bookings are accepted up to two days before the event. Payment is by invoice, credit card or PayPal, always with a proper VAT invoice.
Our customers come from a wide variety of sectors. Whether industry, retail, government or services: myCityHunt scavenger hunts are an excellent teambuilding event for your company outing, department party or team event - and that at 6,467 locations around the world.
How about a puzzle tour through Bad Essen with the myCityHunt app as the program before dinner? Your team heads out in small groups, solves challenges at landmarks across the city, and competes team against team for the top spot on the live leaderboard. Several themes are available, and the tour ends in time for the meal.
The tour comes before the meal: about three hours outdoors in Bad Essen, and everyone is back in time for dinner. You book the restaurant, and the program before it comes from myCityHunt. For the organizer, that leaves little more to do than picking the date and putting the teams together.
A Christmas party that starts out in the city instead of at the table: your company splits into teams and heads through Bad Essen before the meal, collecting points against the other teams. If a team gets stuck, a myCityHunt guide is just a chat message away. The date is yours to pick, even at short notice in December, and venue and menu stay entirely your decision.
The tour through Bad Essen is priced from £ 15.99 per person, and you receive an invoice for the booking. Food and drinks afterward are planned by you, so the budget for the evening stays in your hands.
Yes, in a single booking, split into teams that all start together. The price per person stays the same regardless of group size. Mixing departments when forming the teams works well and gets colleagues talking who otherwise rarely cross paths.
You choose the date and the time. The booking is valid for any day you like, in December just like the rest of the year, and the tour starts once the whole team has arrived. Short-notice bookings work too.
Around three hours. That makes it the first half of the evening: the tour first, then dinner with plenty to talk about.
The tour takes place outdoors in Bad Essen, and you can pause it at any point. If the rain gets heavy or the snow piles up, warm up somewhere dry and pick up right where you left off. Warm jackets and sturdy shoes are part of a Christmas party in December.
