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 Santo Antão, 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 Santo Antão works best when the two halves fit together. Yours already does: the venue is booked, the menu decided. What's missing is the hour or two beforehand that actually gets people talking before they sit down. That's where this company comes in, with a puzzle tour built for exactly that gap, played in teams on the app, through the streets of Santo Antão, past the Roman Temple of Évora and the Igreja de São Francisco on the way.
The app carries the whole programme. It leads each team along a fixed route, sets riddles, codes and photo challenges, collects the answers and keeps score as it goes. A team chat keeps everyone connected even when groups split off, and a shared gallery fills up with the photos as teams send them in. Nobody needs anything but a charged phone. Depending on the tour you choose, the route might take in the Convento da Cartuxa or lead past the Aqueduto da Prata — around four kilometres on foot, roughly three hours altogether. In Santo Antão, the choice runs from Xmas Adventure to Escape Game, Murder Mystery Tour and Treasure Hunt, so there's a format for a team that wants a festive wrapper and one for a team that just wants a good puzzle.
Because the whole thing plays out on foot through the centre of Santo Antão, the walk to dinner afterwards is never far. Prices start from $ 16.99 per person plus VAT, you choose the date and time when booking, and booking stays open up to two days beforehand. Payment is by invoice, credit card or PayPal, always with a proper VAT invoice.

How about a puzzle tour through Santo Antão 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 Santo Antão, 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 Santo Antão 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 Santo Antão 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 Santo Antão, 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.
