Ideas For Team Building Activities in London
CityDays’ guide to booking the best team building activities in London, including unusual team building activities in London, corporate team building activities and much, much more!
1 Go On a London Scavenger Hunt
One of the best team building activities in London for exercising those observation skills: put your teams to the test as they scour a London borough of your choice looking for clues, solving riddles and following directions.
Mix your teams up or let separate departments battle it out as your colleagues discover new places, race to the finish line, or methodically unravel our deceptive puzzles.
Find out more here.
2 Go On a London Treasure Hunt in Search of Urban Bounty
Transform your team into a brigade of buccaneers as they explore London’s remarkable network of hidden gems, unexpected secrets and intriguing mysteries.
Armed with nothing but each other, their competitive spirits and mobile phones, your colleagues will have to work cooperatively to find their way around our masterfully-crafted trails around popular London boroughs - or your office’s very own district.
Find out more here.
3 Go On a Walking Tour To Uncover London’s Secrets
Did you know that 4 in 10 people living in London were born outside of the UK? Chances are, your office is home to people from all over the country, continent and world - and what better way is there to make everyone feel at home outside of the office than showing off your business’ own backyard?
Drag your colleagues away from their slouching positions at their desks and unleash them into the city of London by undertaking a self-guided London walking tour together. Players will answer riddles and clues to navigate them around a chosen route that unravels London’s many mysteries, beauty spots and best-kept secrets.
Expect plenty of fresh air, some exercise and, of course, plenty of teamwork to make the dream work.

4 Treat Them to a Gourmet Food Hunt
At CityDays, we understand that a hungry team is an unhappy team, so we created team building activities in London that soothes rumbling bellies: we call them Gourmet Food Hunts.
Combining a winning formula of exercise, problem-solving, and trying some delicious locally-made* foods, our Gourmet Food Hunts will make your team work hard for their rewards (and have a lot of fun along the way!)
The teams will have to work together to solve puzzles and answer clues before reaching destinations that provide sweet and savoury treats, hot or cold drinks and a sense of accomplishment.
Find out more here.
*We work with independent vendors to help small businesses and ensure that you get the best fresh homemade treats!
5 Unleash Your Team On London With an Outdoor Escape Room
You and your colleagues spend enough time locked up inside the office as it is - don’t force yourself (or them!) into more of it while planning your team building activities in London.
Instead, unleash your workmates into the city of London where locked doors aren’t their biggest adversaries: but their ability to problem solve, observe, think quickly and methodically are.
By playing one of our outdoor escape rooms, your teams will have to combine forces and use their various strengths to their advantage. Race to reach top of the leaderboard or take the tortoise approach by moving with care - the choice is entirely theirs…

6 Turn The Familiar Into The Unfamiliar By Going On an Urban Adventure
Whatever your mode of transport to work is, we can almost guarantee that there’s something amazing you - and your workmates - have missed in plain sight.
It could be a plaque, sculpture, railings or even the secret history of a streetlamp, but the only way you’ll find out just how incredible your London borough is will be booking an Urban Adventure with us.
Let your colleagues in on the secret as you split up into teams around your chosen part of London on the hunt for secrets, taking in hidden gems, incredible landmarks and opening your eyes to the complexity of London’s history.

7 Go On A Hunt For Mayfair’s Marvellous Pubs
What if we told you that it’s easier (and much more fun) to book a pub hunt around Mayfair than it is to organise an event at just one pub for an entire evening?
And what if we told you that your team would still get the benefits of traditional team building activities but in a much more interesting and memorable way?
Well, it’s true. Our Mayfair route will take your colleagues on a hunt around the high-class haunts of London as they seek out the best ‘locals’. The snag? They have to work together solving puzzles, answering clues and following cryptic directions to get there.
Ideal for big and small teams alike, a pub hunt around Mayfair will be more than just a team building exercise: it’ll be a memory for life.

8 Race Against Time on A Zombie Apocalypse Adventure
When you’re brainstorming ideas for your team building activities in London, you want something that will test your team’s ability to act calmly under pressure, show a collaborative approach to problem solving, and display informed decision making.
We’ve got just the way to do it.
Our latest trail, Humanity’s Last, is an outdoor experience that takes place in real-life in real time on London’s city streets. The teams will become the main characters in a story that will terrify them and bring them closer together in equal measure.
The story goes that London has been infected with a mysterious illness that has transformed its citizens into mindless zombies… your colleagues will work against the spread by solving riddles and clues to take them to the lab where (hopefully) a cure can be made…can they do it? There’s only one way to find out!
Find out more here.
9 Solve a Murder Mystery in The Capital
If you’re looking for building activities in London that will bring out your colleagues’ inner Sherlock, look no further.
Turn your graphic designers, office clerks, administrators or whoever into daytime detectives by undertaking a classic murder mystery in London - with a twist.
Our murder mystery trails have been masterfully designed to give your teams the ability to crack centuries’ old mysteries, chase ‘suspicious persons of interest’ and find out ‘whodunnit’. By using their cunning wit and guile, they’ll have to use clues and react in real-time to mysterious events unfolding in front of them. Will they catch the killer? We’ll find out when we look at the leaderboard…
