The Amazing Race: Amazing Race Team Building Experience

Ready, set… go!

Our Amazing Race team building experience turns any city into a fast-paced, globe-trotting adventure. Using our interactive app, teams race between GPS hotspots, unlocking challenges inspired by destinations like Peru, Portugal, and beyond. Expect trivia, brainteasers, and creative photo and video tasks that get everyone involved (yes, even the quiet one). It’s competitive, collaborative, and seriously engaging — with a live leaderboard keeping the pressure on. Best part? We can drop this experience anywhere, making it ridiculously easy to run in your chosen location.

It’s high-energy, competitive, and flexible. Teams can tackle challenges in any order, play to their strengths, and rack up points however they like. Speed helps but strategy wins.

Got teams in different cities? No problem. The Our Amazing Race team building experience can be run as a Multi-City event, allowing teams to compete from their own locations while appearing on the same global leaderboard — perfect for national or international organisations.

How It Works


Before the Event

Once you’ve booked, we’ll help you choose the perfect location, event duration and hosting option for your group. We’ll plot the GPS hotspots, load any custom branding or questions (if included), and make sure everything is ready for game day. We also provide an Event Information page that you can share with your team to help everyone get ready to take part in the activity.

 

The Start

On the day, teams of 4-6 gather for a 15-minute race briefing before downloading the app and receiving their mission. We’ll explain how the game works, answer any questions and get everyone ready to compete.

 

During the Challenge

Teams race across a series of GPS checkpoints over 90-minutes. Along the way, they’ll face Roadblock and Detour-style challenges, along with trivia, photo and video tasks designed to test speed, creativity and decision-making under pressure. The goal is simple: choose the smartest route, complete as many challenges as possible, and reach the finish with the highest score before time runs out.

 

The Wrap-Up

When time’s up, everyone returns and joins the event manager back online for the results. We’ll announce the winners, showcase the live leaderboard and share some of the funniest photos and videos captured during the challenge—usually the highlight of the day!

 

After the Event

The competition may be over, but the memories live on. You’ll receive access to your event gallery, packed with the photos and videos captured by your teams—perfect for sharing with colleagues and celebrating your event.
