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 Folkestone, 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 organising part of a Christmas party in Folkestone usually comes down to one gap: the room is sorted, but nothing fills the hour before everyone sits down to eat. That's the piece myCityHunt provides — a puzzle tour, played in teams through our app, that gets your people moving through Folkestone instead of standing around with a drink waiting for dinner to start. The app runs the show: it sets riddles, codes and photo challenges, takes in the answers and keeps score, so nobody from your side has to organise anything on the day.
Teams cover around four kilometres on foot through the centre of Folkestone, roughly three hours start to finish, passing the likes of St Mary and St Eanswythe's Church, the Folkestone Lighthouse and the Guildhall on the way. Everyone plays against everyone: a team chat keeps the banter going, a leaderboard tracks who's ahead, and all the photos land in one shared gallery by the end. All anyone needs is a charged phone. Depending what suits your group, we run this as a Xmas Adventure, an Escape Game, a Murder Mystery Tour or a Treasure Hunt — all built on the same format, just a different flavour of story. The route itself is fixed for whichever tour you pick, so the app leads everyone past the same stations; how quickly each team gets through them is entirely up to them.
Because the tour stays in the centre of Folkestone, wherever your dinner is booked is usually a short walk away — the programme is ours, the venue and the menu stay yours. Pricing starts from £ 15.99 per person plus VAT, and you set the date and time when you book, right up to two days before the event. Payment is by invoice, credit card or PayPal, and you'll always get a proper VAT invoice for it.
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 6,465 locations around the world.
How about a puzzle tour through Folkestone 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 Folkestone, 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 Folkestone 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 Folkestone 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 Folkestone, 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.
