Xmas Adventure Marseille
Experience the holiday season in a fresh way with the CityHunters Xmas Adventure in Marseille, a lively team building event that doubles as a Scavenger Hunt across the city. Participants will navigate scenic streets, tackle clever puzzles and hunt for hidden clues, all while strengthening bonds and making memorable moments—think festive cooperation with a dash of cleverness, not silliness.
An adventure begins at Marseille Cathedral
The journey kicks off at the striking Marseille Cathedral, an impressive landmark that makes for a dramatic starting line. From there, the CityHunters app leads teams through winding lanes and historic quarters, steering groups from one task to the next. Stops can include the nearby Museum of European and Mediterranean Civilisations, where culture and clues meet, creating an engaging mix of history and challenge.
Discover the treasures of the Old Port of Marseille
The Old Port of Marseille is a highlight on the route, offering lively scenes and panoramic views that enrich every puzzle solved. While exploring the docks and promenades, teams can soak in the maritime atmosphere and maybe even sample local specialties like bouillabaisse. Nearby sights such as the Palais du Pharo add scenic variety and make for memorable photo moments between clues.
Team spirit and festive mood unite
The blend of riddles, discovery and seasonal cheer makes the Xmas Adventure an ideal team building experience. As colleagues work together to overcome challenges, communication and cooperation naturally improve. The decorated streets provide a festive backdrop for a company summer party or a company christmas party alternative, whether the aim is friendly competition or relaxed camaraderie.
Freedom and flexibility for the team
A major perk of the CityHunters Xmas Adventure is its flexibility. Teams can choose convenient start points like Marseille Cathedral or Marseille City Hall, or pick other central spots such as the Opéra de Marseille or Porte d'Aix. That adaptability makes it easy to slot the experience into a company outing schedule or run it as a standalone highlight, letting groups progress at their own pace via the app.
An unforgettable experience at Fort Saint-Jean
Fort Saint-Jean provides a grand setting for more challenges, with sweeping sea views and historical architecture that elevate the Scavenger Hunt. Nearby institutions like the Marseille History Museum and the Museum of European and Mediterranean Civilisations broaden the route’s cultural depth, while the fort’s layout invites teamwork and strategic thinking from every squad.
A company outing with lasting impact
A company outing to Marseille featuring the CityHunters Xmas Adventure does more than entertain—it's an investment in team cohesion and motivation. The variety of tasks encourages creative problem solving and fresh collaboration styles, leaving impressions that will be mentioned long after, whether at the next company christmas party or during planning for a future company summer party.
