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 Uppsala, 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.
Booking a Christmas party in Uppsala usually means two separate problems: finding a room and finding something for everyone to do before the food arrives. With myCityQuest you solve the second one, and the first one sorts itself out because your teams finish their tour in the centre of Uppsala, close to wherever dinner is booked. You keep the restaurant you already know; we supply the programme that gets your colleagues talking before they sit down.
The programme is a puzzle tour, played as teams through our app. Depending on the mood you're after, you can choose from formats including Xmas Adventure, Escape Game, Murder Mystery Tour, Treasure Hunt and Scavenger Hunt — each one a different way of getting your teams moving through Uppsala with riddles, codes and photo tasks to solve along the way. The route is fixed in advance, leading teams past places such as Uppsala Castle, Gustavianum and the Botanical Garden, but how quickly each team works through it is entirely down to them. It's roughly four kilometres on foot and about three hours, with a team chat and live leaderboard so everyone can see how the others are getting on, and a shared photo gallery filling up as they go. Nobody needs anything beyond a charged phone.
Pricing starts from $ 16.99 per person plus VAT, with your company setting the date and time at booking, right up to two days beforehand. Payment is by invoice, credit card or PayPal, and you'll always get a proper VAT invoice — so the only decision left for your Christmas party in Uppsala is which restaurant gets the booking.
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 Uppsala 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 Uppsala, 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 Uppsala 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 Uppsala 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 Uppsala, 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.
