Team Building Event Trustlog GmbH
As a CityHunters team guide I had the pleasure of welcoming the colleagues from Trustlog GmbH to a lively iPad Tour in Old Town on June 29, 2023 at 3:00 PM. The meeting point was the back of St. Peter's Church, where I greeted the group and gave a brief rundown of the plan. An ideal setting for a team building experience in Old Town: central, rich in history and full of opportunities for discovery.
The 21 participants were split into three teams and handed the iPads along with an introduction to the CityHunters App. The excitement was immediate: navigation, puzzles and interactive tasks awaited the groups as they made their way through the city. Our tour combined modern technology with playful urban exploration — that is how a team building experience in Old Town is truly fun. Along the route the teams encountered well-known landmarks like the Elbphilharmonie, the Speicherstadt and the Chilehaus, which provided the backdrop for individual challenges.
During the tour the teams worked independently, competing in a friendly contest for the highest score. Points were awarded for correctly solved puzzles and for successfully completing creative team tasks. The CityHunters App displayed the scores in real time, adding extra motivation. As team guide I was reachable by phone the whole time in case any questions or technical issues came up — my goal was to support the teams as much as possible without curbing their spirit of exploration.
The weather cooperated, which lifted everyone’s spirits: sunny atmosphere, good moods and plenty of laughter on the streets of Old Town. After roughly two and a half hours all groups reconvened at the back of St. Peter's Church for the joint awards ceremony. The winners were overjoyed and received medals, a fitting finale to an intense afternoon.
Experiences like this show how effective and entertaining a team building experience in Old Town can be: team spirit is strengthened, communication is encouraged and colleagues get to know each other in new ways. I am already looking forward to the next adventure in Old Town and to guiding more teams as they rediscover the city.
