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 Borkum, 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.
A Christmas party in Borkum works best when the two halves fit together: something that gets your colleagues moving as one group before dinner, and the meal itself, wherever you choose to book it. We bring the first part — the puzzle tour — and leave the second to you, because your chosen restaurant in Borkum already knows its own menu and its own room far better than we do. The teams play on foot through the centre of Borkum, which also means the walk to the table afterwards is a short one.
The puzzle tour runs on phones, through the app, with teams finding their own pace along a fixed route that takes in the quieter corners of Borkum — past St. Maria Meeresstern, the Christuskirche, or the Borkum war memorial, depending on where the route leads. The app sets the riddles, codes and photo challenges, collects the answers and keeps score, so nobody is stood around waiting for instructions. A team chat keeps the group connected, a leaderboard shows who's ahead, and all the photos land in one shared gallery afterwards. Around four kilometres, about three hours, and nothing needed beyond charged phones. In Borkum you can choose from Xmas Adventure, Escape Game, Murder Mystery Tour and Treasure Hunt, depending on the tone you want for the afternoon.
Pricing starts from £ 15.99 per person plus VAT. You set the date and time when you book, right up until two days before the event, and payment is by invoice, credit card or PayPal, always with a proper VAT invoice. That leaves you free to book your Christmas dinner in Borkum separately, on whatever date suits, knowing the programme beforehand is already sorted.
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 Borkum 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 Borkum, 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 Borkum 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 Borkum 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 Borkum, 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.
