August 6, 2010 New Treasure Hunt Celebrity Spotting
Added to the list of celebrities spotted on our London Treasure Hunt is former London Mayor Ken Livingstone who met one of our teams and was kind enough to stop for a photo. It always adds to the fun when one of the teams meets someone famous and can earn them vital bonus points.

June 11, 2010 Themed Treasure Hunts
Can treasure hunts be themed? The answer is yes they can and probably more so than any other corporate event. You can theme to nations, languages, films and even abstract concepts such as Cockney Rhyming Slang. I would challenge someone to come up with a theme that we cannot work with!
They key is to build the theme in as naturally as possible so that it doesn’t feel contrived and take away from the enjoyment of the event. However, a good treasure hunt writer will be able to work with their client to make this work without compromise.
So, your treasure hunt can be themed as as to what to choose it’s as broad as your imagination.

May 12, 2010 Treasure Hunt Fun
This is a great photo of a team having fun on a treasure hunt. There are actually three people in the photo, one of whom is being really supportive!
We have four boxes full of fancy dress costumes so we can add this to your event if you really want to have fun. People love dressing up and you can see the delight on their faces when we open up the fancy dress boxes. We often hear about a very stern manager who is unlikely to get involved, only to find that he is the one dressed as a Spice Girl at the end of the day!

January 21, 2010 Treasure Hunt events
We give each team a digital camera on our Treasure Hunts and they have to capture specific photographic targets but they also bring back a record of their fun and experiences over the course of the day. It’s funny, on every event one team always ends up in bed together!
Some of the photographs we get are hilarious, check out the reel of shots below. Since the advent of digital cameras and the whole social networking movement people have become much better at taking amusing photographs.

January 5, 2010 London Trivia
We use a lot of interesting facts about London in our Treasure Hunts. We like to combine fun and action with a few interesting facts and, although we call it trivia, they are often quite fascinating.
Did you know, for example, that The Lloyd’s Building was built on the site of the old London maypole? Or that in 1690 during building works the remains of a wooly mammoth were unearthed. There is evidence of inhabitation of the London site going back half a million years and that it has been constantly inhabited for the last 15,000 years.
London is a wonderfully interesting event location.

November 26, 2009 Treasure Hunt Tasks
Set within the clues of a well written Treasure Hunt will be a series of challenges. Teams will be given a camera and asked to bring back certain pictures, and one which works very well is a reproduction of a scene from a famous film.
In this case the team have found a cinema and reproduced the poster outside and the result is really effective, probably because the people look fairly similar to those on the poster (from a distance).
A good Treasure Hunt has plenty of challenges that add to fun of the overall event. The key is to give the individuals in the team the chance to share fun, positive experiences as this is what builds relationships.
Treasure Hunts for corporate groups can be arranged around the UK and Europe with various themes and formats.

November 3, 2009 London Treasure Hunt
The London Treasure Hunt is one of the most popular treasure hunts because so many clients are based in London and it is a fabulous location full of history and interesting sights.
One might assume that a London Treasure Hunt would take in locations such as The Tower of London and Madame Tussauds, however the skill of the writer is to choose locations where there is plenty to see and do but where queues are avoided.

- Fun In London
As with any treasure hunt the real fun is unpredictable and often involves strangers who

October 6, 2009 City Treasure Hunts
City Treasure Hunts are a fantastic way to explore the sights of a city. Capital cities such as London and Paris are obvious choices and the key is not to choose major tourist attractions, for no-one wants to spend their event standing in queues. There are many fascinating off beat places to visit and the experienced writer will ensure that the treasure hunt is filled with these.
Cathedral cities in the UK make excellent locations for a treasure hunt, for example Oxford and Winchester.
