An unforgettable start at the Monastery of Serra do Pilar

Puzzle fun and team spirit in the city center
Throughout the Scavenger Hunt, every corner offers a new brainteaser or creative assignment that highlights individual strengths and promotes collaboration. The industrial character of the Fábrica de Cerâmica das Devesas sparks inventive challenges that require logic and teamwork, while the artistic setting of the Casa-Museu Teixeira Lopes invites more imaginative, interpretation-based tasks. These moments reveal the many talents within a team and show how diverse skills combine to achieve shared goals.
A company outing full of discoveries

These discoveries foster conversation and camaraderie, transforming a simple outing into a meaningful team building event that resonates long after the day ends.
A company summer party with a twist
Consider making the Scavenger Hunt the centerpiece of a company summer party or departmental celebration to create lasting memories alongside team development. The Igreja Paroquial de Santo Ovídio provides a picturesque station that enhances the celebratory program while encouraging communication and cooperation. Outdoor activities like this naturally boost group dynamics and leave participants with a sense of achievement and fun.
