Scavenger Hunt
Explore the city. Solve the clues. Outscore the rest.
After a fun briefing from your event manager, teams head out with a hunt pack and an iPad loaded with interactive clues, photo missions and location challenges. The job: earn as many points as possible before time’s up, planning smart routes, solving puzzles, snapping the best photos and outsmarting rival teams along the way.
Bonus points reward creativity, teamwork and the odd surprise challenge dropped in along the route. Everyone comes back together for a light-hearted results reveal and photo showcase, with the top-scoring team taking the glory, and the bragging rights.
With nearly 30 years’ experience running these events, EML makes it seamless: fully managed, fully customisable to your group size, location and objectives, and always focused on connection, laughter and collaboration.

There’s something timeless about a scavenger hunt. From childhood treasure hunts to corporate city-wide adventures, this is an activity that taps into our natural instincts to explore, solve problems, and celebrate success together. Today, our team building scavenger hunt has evolved into one of the most engaging and effective ways to unite colleagues, boost morale, and strengthen workplace relationships.
With nearly three decades of industry experience, EML Team Building ensures a seamless event from start to finish. The activity begins with a lively briefing from your event manager, where connections are formed, rules explained, and team identities created. Once the hunt begins, guests navigate through their chosen location, completing as many tasks as possible within the allotted time. Bonus points are of course awarded for creativity and originality… plus the odd surprise challenges revealed along the way.
Each team receives a Hunt pack, complete with an iPad loaded with interactive clues and challenges. The mission is simple: earn as many points as possible by solving puzzles, finding items, completing photo challenges, and outsmarting the competition before time runs out. With so many ways to score, guests must strategise, plan, and work together to succeed – and of course, the highest-scoring team claims victory and ultimate bragging rights.
The event concludes with the announcement of the winners, followed by a light-hearted photo presentation and plenty of shared laughter – the perfect way to wrap up a memorable team building experience.
We provide complete event management, including pre-event planning, on-the-day coordination, and post-event support. Every corporate hunt can be customised to your team size, location, and objectives for a truly bespoke experience.

Outcomes of the Team Building Scavenger Hunt Activity
A scavenger hunt is more than just an entertaining afternoon out — it’s a powerful tool for team development. As guests dive into the challenges, barriers quickly fade, and genuine collaboration emerges. Colleagues communicate in a more natural way, share ideas freely, and rely on one another’s strengths to achieve shared goals.
Here’s what makes our scavenger hunts so effective:
- Encourages Natural Collaboration – Every task requires teamwork, from solving clues to completing creative challenges.
- Breaks the Ice – A fun, relaxed way to connect people from different departments and backgrounds.
- Boosts Energy and Creativity – Time pressure and competition spark innovative thinking and problem-solving.
- Builds Trust and Camaraderie – Guests support, cheer on, and celebrate each other’s achievements throughout the hunt.
- Leaderless Tasks – The different activities encourage different personalities to get involved and take responsibilityÂ
Our scavenger hunts aren’t just fun; they create genuine connections and lasting memories. By encouraging creativity, trust, and collaboration, they help teams return to work feeling refreshed, motivated, and more united than ever.
Whether you’re planning a full-day city adventure or a quick in-office energiser, our corporate scavenger hunt is the perfect way to boost morale and strengthen team spirit through shared discovery, laughter, and a little friendly competition.
