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 Varese, 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 Varese works best when the two halves of the evening fit together: something that gets everyone moving and talking, followed by a table where they can sit down and keep talking. We supply the first half as a puzzle tour, played in teams through our app. The app sets riddles, codes and photo challenges, takes the answers and keeps score, so your only job beforehand is charged phones. Which format you pick — Xmas Adventure, Escape Game, Murder Mystery Tour, Treasure Hunt or Scavenger Hunt — shapes the tone of the evening, but the mechanics underneath stay the same: a fixed route through Varese, a team chat, a leaderboard, a shared photo gallery.
The route for each tour leads past a fixed set of stations around the centre of Varese, past the likes of Palazzo Estense, Masnago Castle or Casa del Fascio, depending on which tour you choose. How quickly a team moves between them is entirely theirs to decide — some sprint, some linger. Across the roughly four kilometres and three hours, every team is playing against every other team, which does more for the mood of a work party than any seating plan could. Because it all happens on foot in the centre of Varese, your group finishes close to wherever dinner is booked, with no coaches or taxis needed in between.
The booking itself stays simple: from £ 15.99 per person plus VAT, with your company choosing the date and time when booking, right up to two days beforehand. Payment is by invoice, credit card or PayPal, and you always receive a proper VAT invoice. The venue and the menu stay entirely yours to arrange — we just make sure the evening already has its best part before anyone sits down.
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 Varese 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 Varese, 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 Varese 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 Varese 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 Varese, 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.
