The black cab treasure hunt is a hilarious and interactive team development event designed to test any team's planning, delegation, communication and time & team management skills, all in a hugely fun environment! You and your colleagues are guaranteed to have a fantastic day as you race around London on a frantic trail, all in the comfort of a traditional black cab, complete with an authentic cockney driver to help you on your way!

A trail alone would be just too easy though we think, so we’ve added on various other challenges for you and your team to complete in order to collect those all important winning points! We give you everything you need: the clues, training notes, a digital camera, maps and clues and of course a black cab and cabby, but after that you're on your own and the clock is ticking!

This event is also great in the fact that it is completely flexible on pick-up point, format and content - we can make it as team-building orientated or relaxed as you wish. See the options below for more details.

The Challenges

On Your Marks... Get Set... GO!
After a quick briefing from your host, your team will be given a short brainteaser, which once completed correctly will mean your team can all pile into your cab and get going! Get your brains in gear now team, or else you’ll be the last the leave!

Treasure Hunt
Your trail around London will be set in different zones. It is up to you and your cabby to plan the best route to get to each and answer the selection of
information-finding tasks and cryptic clues we’ve set you there.
Will you get the right number from the red phone box, find the date on the smallest plaque and, if your boss allows, find the right pubs on the way round?!

Photograph Challenges
Along the way, your team will have to complete a list of fun photograph challenges, testing your creativity and daring in the face of the public! Examples include re-enacting a game of Twister in Leicester Square, a picture of the
whole team playing a musical instrument upside down and finding some team hats... which aren’t really hats! Big bonus points await the funniest and
most ingenious snaps!

Scavenger List
Have you ever thought how you would find a balloon animal if you needed one? Don't worry, neither had we! This is just one example of the obscure scavenger items your team will have to collect in order to earn more points.
A two day old newspaper, a foreign coin, a witch's hat... Good luck!

Extra Team Challenges & Themes
However competitive or interactive you want your event, we have the right challenges for you. Extra points for taking a picture of other teams completing their photo challenges, catching them with a scavenger list item or competing against each other in pub games - you name it, we can offer it!
We are also happy to theme your event at a small additional cost. Popular options include movies and historic events, so please talk to your representative for details.

The Winners!

The end of the event sees all your team’s points for the different challenges combined to find your grand total. A showing of the best scavenger items and photos is then made before the winning team is crowned victorious, with a presentation of medals and prizes for the top two teams. 

Optional Extras

Historic Visits & Activities
We look to take you to as many interesting places as we can fit in your event: the London Eye, Thames RIB rides, The Tower of London and many more. We do not include tours and paid visits to historic venues but are happy to add this to your day on request (POA).

Pub Visits
This event can be made as teambuilding or business orientated as you wish.  However if this is a reward event and you think your guests would enjoy a few pub visits, we would be more than happy to add a selection of watering holes to your event.
