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 Ottawa, 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 Ottawa with myCityHunt splits neatly into two halves, and that is the point. We bring the programme: a puzzle tour that sends your teams out across the centre of Ottawa, past the Rideau Canal and on towards Notre-Dame Cathedral Basilica, app in hand, chasing riddles, codes and photo challenges. You bring the venue and the menu, whatever restaurant or room you already have booked or are planning to book. The two halves meet easily, because the tour finishes where the restaurants of Ottawa are, and the walk to dinner is short.
Depending on the mood you're after, the format can be a Xmas Adventure, an Escape Game, a Murder Mystery Tour, a Treasure Hunt or a Scavenger Hunt — all played the same way, through the app, which sets the tasks, takes the answers and keeps score. The route for each tour is fixed, leading your teams along the stations that belong to it, but how fast a team moves between them is entirely up to them. Figure on about four kilometres on foot and three hours all told. Teams play against each other, a team chat keeps them talking, a leaderboard shows who's ahead, and all the photos land in one shared gallery afterwards. Nobody needs anything but a charged phone.
Prices start from € 16.99 per person plus VAT. You choose the date and time when booking, and booking stays open right up to two days beforehand. We invoice, or you can pay by credit card or PayPal — either way you get a proper VAT invoice for your records.
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 Ottawa 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 Ottawa, 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 Ottawa 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 Ottawa is priced from € 16.99 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 Ottawa, 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.
