Front and centre is the Xmas Adventure, our tour for the festive season. You can book any of these tours as a team building event.
In teams, you puzzle your way through Bures-sur-Yvette, collect points, and afterwards celebrate the team with the most points over dinner. The programme comes from myCityQuest, you choose the venue and menu yourselves.
A Christmas party in Bures-sur-Yvette works best when the two halves fit together: a programme that gets people laughing and talking, and a table afterwards where they can keep doing exactly that. With myCityQuest, you book the first half as a puzzle tour, played through the app, and arrange the second half yourselves — the restaurant, the menu, the room you may already have sorted. Both halves sit close together, because your teams are moving through the centre of Bures-sur-Yvette the whole time, and that's exactly where the dinner tables are too.
The puzzle tour itself runs as Xmas Adventure, Escape Game, Murder Mystery Tour or Treasure Hunt — pick whichever fits the mood you're after. Whichever format, the mechanics stay the same: the app leads each team along a fixed route past the Église Saint-Matthieu, out towards the Anneau de collisions d'Orsay, setting riddles, codes and photo challenges as it goes. Every team plays against every other team, a shared chat keeps the banter going, a live leaderboard tracks who's ahead, and all the photos land in one gallery everyone can scroll through later. No equipment to hand out — a charged phone per team is all anyone needs. Teams move at their own pace, so some will finish quicker than others, but everyone covers the same ground across roughly four kilometres and three hours.
Pricing starts from $ 16.99 per person plus VAT. You choose the date and time when you book, right up to two days beforehand, and you'll get a proper VAT invoice regardless of whether you pay by invoice, card or PayPal. That leaves you free to focus on the part that's yours: the restaurant, the drinks, the evening that follows once the app has had its say in Bures-sur-Yvette.
Our customers come from a wide variety of sectors. Whether industry, retail, government or services: myCityQuest scavenger hunts are an excellent teambuilding event for your company outing, department party or team event - and that at 6,467 locations around the world.
How about a puzzle tour through Bures-sur-Yvette with the myCityQuest app as the program before dinner? Your team heads out in small groups, solves challenges at landmarks across the city, and competes team against team for the top spot on the live leaderboard. Several themes are available, and the tour ends in time for the meal.
The tour comes before the meal: about three hours outdoors in Bures-sur-Yvette, and everyone is back in time for dinner. You book the restaurant, and the program before it comes from myCityQuest. For the organizer, that leaves little more to do than picking the date and putting the teams together.
A Christmas party that starts out in the city instead of at the table: your company splits into teams and heads through Bures-sur-Yvette before the meal, collecting points against the other teams. If a team gets stuck, a myCityQuest guide is just a chat message away. The date is yours to pick, even at short notice in December, and venue and menu stay entirely your decision.
The tour through Bures-sur-Yvette is priced from $ 16.99 per person, and you receive an invoice for the booking. Food and drinks afterward are planned by you, so the budget for the evening stays in your hands.
Yes, in a single booking, split into teams that all start together. The price per person stays the same regardless of group size. Mixing departments when forming the teams works well and gets colleagues talking who otherwise rarely cross paths.
You choose the date and the time. The booking is valid for any day you like, in December just like the rest of the year, and the tour starts once the whole team has arrived. Short-notice bookings work too.
Around three hours. That makes it the first half of the evening: the tour first, then dinner with plenty to talk about.
The tour takes place outdoors in Bures-sur-Yvette, and you can pause it at any point. If the rain gets heavy or the snow piles up, warm up somewhere dry and pick up right where you left off. Warm jackets and sturdy shoes are part of a Christmas party in December.
