What Is Virtual Around the World Team Event?

Treat your group to a virtual exploration of the globe, visiting 22 countries across 40,000 virtual miles as you test your teamwork and collaboration skills together!

Each country will present it’s own tasks to unlock using image recognition technology via an easy to download app. Your group will start in Argentina and complete a series of light-hearted challenges to earn Travel Credits. Your group will need to work together to earn enough Travel Credits to hop to the next destination and so on. You’ll also get the chance to crack cryptic clues to guess your next destination and receive the ticket for your next journey for free.

You’ll discover challenges that range from performing a fun Haka in New Zealand to exploring world wonders via Google Maps. All of these tasks will uncover answers and codes to help you explore ahead. Each group will need to keep track of time as your Travel Credits can also be earned from distance travelled. This means the team with the most Travel Credits at the end will be crowned winners!

Will your group travel the furthest across the map from Argentina to New Zealand and beat the rest?

This virtually worldwide activity has something for everyone to test your creativity, strategy and teamwork under some friendly competition. One of our best virtual team events.

Just wanted to say a massive thank you for our event yesterday - it was so much fun. Everyone really enjoyed themselves. And an extra big thank you to our host for making it such fun, and to the technical support to make sure it ran as smoothly as it did.

The event went really well and the host did a great job of explaining and keeping the event flowing.

The event itself was really good fun and I received lots of positive feedback from those who attended. I would definitely come back to you for one of your other packages in the future should we organise a similar event.

the event went really well, I can only apologise as we didn't end up having a very good turn out but that was purely due to a few emergency bits of work coming in that prevented people from attending. Those who did had a really good time and thought the hosts were brilliant!
