Escape Game Lyon
Explore Lyon in a whole new light with the CityHunters Escape Game, where teams dive into a clever mix of puzzles and challenges. This team building event turns colleagues into covert operatives for a few hours of focused collaboration and mild glory. Perfect for a department celebration, a company outing or a company summer party, this experience tightens bonds and leaves everyone buzzing for the right reasons.
The city as a playground
The adventure kicks off at the striking Place des Terreaux, anchored by the elegant Fontaine Bartholdi. From there, the mission winds through Lyon’s storied streets and secret corners, offering a live backdrop of landmarks such as Lyon Cathedral, the Basilica of Notre-Dame de Fourvière and the Museum of Fine Arts of Lyon. Along the route, teams will also pass the Hôtel de Ville de Lyon, the Odeon of Lyon, the Metallic tower of Fourvière, the Amphitheater of Lyon and the Saint-Bonaventure Basilica. All tasks take place outdoors, so the architecture, history and a hint of fresh air are part of the game plan.
Success as a team
The CityHunters Escape Game challenges communication, creativity and the instinct to cooperate. Each solved clue nudges the team closer to mission completion, turning colleagues into collaborators in a story-driven experience that builds trust and boosts morale. Analytical thinkers, fast decision-makers and imaginative problem-solvers each find a moment to shine, making this team building experience a practical and enjoyable way to strengthen workplace dynamics.
Flexibility and freedom
A key advantage of this Escape Game is adaptability. While Place des Terreaux is an ideal launch point, the game can begin elsewhere in the city center when preferred. There are no rigid start times or on-site supervisors, which means maximum freedom for schedules and group sizes. A multimedia app provides all necessary instructions and hints, so attention stays on the mission and on working well together.
An unforgettable experience
More than a game, the CityHunters Escape Game is a stroll through Lyon’s culture and history, experienced through the lens of an interactive challenge. With Lyon’s renowned cuisine and lively arts scene as context, this team building event exceeds expectations and inspires teams. Whether chosen as a company summer party, a company outing or even a company christmas party, the adventure turns coworkers into a united team ready to tackle the next chapter of their shared story.
