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 Varel, 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.
In Varel the Christmas party usually comes with a room already booked, somewhere behind the Schlossplatz or close to the Heimatmuseum — but a room on its own doesn't make an evening. What's missing is the hour or two beforehand where people actually talk to each other before they sit down and look at a menu. That's the gap we fill: the venue and the food stay yours to arrange, we bring the programme that gets your team moving through Varel as a team, not just a department sitting at a table.
The programme is a puzzle tour, played on the app, no paper and no guide walking in front. Depending on what suits your group, it runs as an Xmas Adventure, an Escape Game, a Murder Mystery Tour or a Treasure Hunt — the format changes the story, not the mechanics. The route is fixed, past stops such as St. Bonifatius or the Church of Peace, and the app leads each team along it at whatever pace they choose to set. Riddles, codes and photo tasks come up along the way, answers go straight into the app, and the points add up on a leaderboard everyone can see. A team chat keeps the group in touch even when they split up, and by the time the tour ends — around three hours, four kilometres on foot through Varel — there's already a winner before anyone sits down to dinner. All anyone needs is a charged phone.
Booking is from € 16.99 per person plus VAT. You choose the date and time when you book, right up to two days beforehand, and we invoice against purchase order, credit card or PayPal, always with a proper VAT invoice. The walk from the final stop to most dinner venues in Varel is short — which is really the point: the evening doesn't need two separate outings, just one that flows into the other.
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 Varel 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 Varel, 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 Varel 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 Varel 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 Varel, 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.
