Scavenger hunts make great corporate team building games in NYC

The scavenger hunt was amazing! I think it’s fair to say everyone had a blast. Thanks for organizing such a great event for us.

Our team building scavenger hunts show off a fresh, engaging face of New York City. Your group will explore in teams, experiencing NYC interactively – not in a passive tour.

Secret City runs pen and paper scavenger hunts, without using apps. Your teammates will be working together around a physical set of clues, rather than watching their phones. They literally have to put their heads together! This encourages engagement, bringing out your team’s resourcefulness, creativity and strategic thinking.

Scavenger hunts make good team building games because they involve a wide set of skills. Problem solving, teamwork and strategy will all be required. Your group will interact and work together in a high-energy, challenging race against the clock.

Participants must collaborate to win the hunt. This fosters team bonding and makes fun memories along the way. A scavenger hunt is a great way to build relationships between staff who wouldn’t normally get to interact. The game levels the playing field.

Your staff will love our hunts!

Our corporate events in New York City are a lot of fun! Native New Yorkers will be blown away with a fresh experience in their own city. Visitors will get a hands-on experience of the city that a tour can’t provide.

Secret City scavenger hunts are enriching experiences. Your staff will build great memories to share with their coworkers. They will return to the office refreshed, with stronger bonds and reinforced teamwork skills.

My experience with Secret City was unbelievably seamless and beyond successful. My company hired Secret City to organize a 250 employee NYC Scavenger Hunt. Since the hunt, we have received praise over how much fun the trip was and the team bonding as a result has only strengthened.

How do our scavenger hunts work?

Secret City was a great partner, helping us execute a fun team building experience! Most of our team was from out of town so they loved visiting the American Museum of Natural History and many want to go back for another visit. As a long-time New Yorker, I loved seeing the museum in a different way!

Your group will form teams with 4 or 5 members to compete in a fun and challenging race against time. Your Secret City guides will explain the rules and hand out the scavenger hunt clues. Then the race is on for the next 2 hours!

How our corporate team building activities work

Teams will work together to follow clues and solve puzzles about interesting fixtures built into the world around you – cool features of the city that are worthy of discovery. Bold words within the clues tell you where to look. You don’t have to follow the clues in order – plot your own course and strategy! The team with the most points wins the race and order of arrival breaks a tie.

Hint: Don’t spend time trying to Google the answers – that’s not a winning strategy!

When the time is up we’ll gather at the designated meeting point – usually a nearby bar or restaurant. Your Secret City guides will tally up the scores and announce the winners. The team with the most points wins! We’ll stick around for a little while in case you have any questions.


Everything went great – from start to finish! It was such a great event for our team. We’re a competitive bunch, so everyone had fun running around Grand Central to try to be the winner. Abby was also great! She was very patient with us! Thank you again for setting this up.

Participants should dress in comfortable, weather-appropriate clothes. Don’t bring anything you don’t want to carry 2 hours!
