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 Syracuse, 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 Syracuse works best when the two halves of the evening fit together: something that gets people moving and laughing as teams, and a table booked for afterwards. We handle the first part. The puzzle tour runs on the app on every phone — it shows the route, sets the riddles, codes and photo challenges for that tour, and tallies the points as your teams go. You choose the venue and the menu, since you know what your company actually wants to eat and where. Because the teams are out in the centre of Syracuse, moving between the Greek Theatre, the Roman amphitheatre and the old streets around Neapolis, the walk from the final checkpoint to dinner is short.
In Syracuse the puzzle tour comes as a Xmas Adventure, an Escape Game, a Murder Mystery Tour, a Treasure Hunt or a Scavenger Hunt — pick whichever fits the mood you want for the evening. Whichever format you choose, the route is fixed for that tour, so every team follows the same stations past landmarks such as the Temple of Apollo or the Madonna delle Lacrime Sanctuary; how quickly they get through it is entirely down to them. It's roughly four kilometres on foot and about three hours, with a team chat keeping everyone connected, a leaderboard showing who's ahead, and a shared gallery filling up with photo challenge entries as the teams compete against each other.
Prices start from £ 15.99 per person plus VAT. You set the date and time when you book, and booking stays open up to two days before the event. Payment is by invoice, credit card or PayPal, and you always receive a proper VAT invoice — straightforward enough to put through as a normal business expense while your team gets on with the fun part.
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 Syracuse 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 Syracuse, 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 Syracuse 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 Syracuse 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 Syracuse, 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.
