NYC Scavenger Hunts for Team Building & Private Events

Secret City creates live, in-person scavenger hunts that spark laughter, teamwork, and real-world connection. Whether you’re planning a team building event, corporate offsite, or group activity in NYC, we’ll host a private hunt tailored to your needs — with expert game masters, seamless logistics, and clue-filled challenges that get everyone moving and thinking.

Our scavenger hunts are hands-on, screen-free adventures that let your group actively explore NYC’s most iconic neighborhoods and cultural landmarks. Solve puzzles, discover hidden gems, and turn the city into your game board!

Who We Work With

Team Building & Professional Groups

Turn team meetings into NYC adventures that actually build trust and connection. Ideal for companies, nonprofits, government agencies, and professional associations planning team building, department outings, or employee engagement events. We’ve worked with Fortune 500s like Google and Meta, and organizations of all kinds — delivering screen-free experiences that spark collaboration and real-world fun.

Conferences, Offsites & Summits

Planning a conference icebreaker, leadership retreat, sales kickoff, or annual summit? We design plug-and-play activities that integrate cleanly into your existing conference schedule — before sessions, between meetings, or as an offsite breakout. Built for 5–500+ attendees, we handle coordination and facilitation so your group gets a high-energy add-on that fits your agenda. Seamless, scalable, and seriously memorable.

Educational & Student Groups

Our scavenger hunts bring students together through exploration, discovery, and hands-on learning. From field trips and college orientations to summer camps and international student programs, we create well-organized, age-appropriate experiences that combine education with adventure. NYC becomes your classroom — and the lessons stick long after the hunt ends.

Travel, Tourism & Visiting Groups

Give your guests an interactive NYC experience that goes beyond traditional sightseeing. We’re the trusted partner for Destination Management Companies, tour operators, travel planners, and hotel concierges who want to offer something memorable and engaging. Easy to schedule, fun to run, and designed for groups of all sizes — from international visitors to business delegations exploring the city together.

Celebrations & Milestone Events

Make your celebration unforgettable. Whether it’s a birthday, bachelorette party, Bar/Bat Mitzvah, wedding gathering, anniversary, or reunion, our hunts turn special moments into shared adventures. Expect laughter, bonding, a little friendly competition, and stories you’ll be telling for years.

Community Groups & Organizations

We create thoughtful, screen-free experiences for churches, synagogues, civic organizations, volunteer groups, hobby clubs, LGBTQ+ communities, and senior groups. Whether you’re planning a youth event, an intergenerational outing, or a club gathering, our hunts foster genuine connection through shared discovery.
