Treasure Hunt Bologna
A whisper of adventure winds through the streets of Bologna as teams set off on an unforgettable mission. Welcome to the CityHunters treasure hunt, a team building experience in Bologna that sharpens the senses and loosens up the team spirit. Armed with the CityHunters app and a healthy curiosity, participants embark on a journey that blends excitement, history, and communal triumph. This team building event in Bologna is an ideal choice for turning a company outing or a company summer party into something genuinely memorable.
An adventure begins by San Petronio Basilica
The quest kicks off close to the imposing San Petronio Basilica, with the nearby Fountain of Neptune offering a striking backdrop. From this central spot, the city reveals itself in layers of art, architecture, and atmosphere. Soon the route will lead through the famous Porticoes of Bologna, those long covered walkways that are both an architectural marvel and a neat metaphor for the collaboration this treasure hunt aims to inspire.
Uncover the city’s hidden corners
As encrypted clues are cracked and subtle trails are followed, teams are guided to corners that even seasoned locals might admire anew. The Asinelli Tower rises above the skyline as a dramatic landmark while the Pinacoteca Nazionale di Bologna and the Basilica of San Domenico offer cultural stops that reward curiosity. Each challenge encourages cooperation, and every discovery helps the group see Bologna from a fresher, more connected perspective.
Teamwork and culinary pleasures
No team building experience in Bologna would be complete without sampling the region’s culinary treasures. Along the way, teams can savor classics like tagliatelle al ragù and the city’s beloved tortellini. These shared meals do more than satisfy appetites — they provide the perfect chance to celebrate small victories, compare notes, and strengthen bonds formed during the hunt.
Flexibility and independence
One of the standout features of the CityHunters treasure hunt is its flexibility. The tour can begin at any convenient moment and progress at the group’s own pace, making it an excellent addition to a department gathering or as a side program for a company summer party. This independence lets teams explore according to their schedule and preferences, whether starting near San Petronio Basilica, the University of Bologna, or another central landmark.
An unforgettable company outing
The CityHunters treasure hunt is more than just a team building event in Bologna — it’s an opportunity to strengthen camaraderie and create lasting memories. As teams solve puzzles and unveil the city’s secrets, they grow closer and pick up practical skills that translate back to the workplace. Let the charm of Bologna work its magic and turn the next company outing into an adventure that lingers long after the final clue is solved.
