London Shoreditch team building activities & treasure hunts
For a team building experience with a creative twist, Wildgoose’s Team Building & Treasure Hunt activities in Shoreditch combine vibrant street culture with fast-paced GPS gameplay. Known for its colourful murals, independent cafes and buzzing creative scene, Shoreditch is one of London’s most exciting locations for getting teams out of the office and working together in a completely different environment.
Most Shoreditch treasure hunts start near Shoreditch High Street or Old Street station, then the route winds through the side streets and markets, where the street art gives teams plenty to photograph. We can also start from your office if you’re based nearby.
Using our interactive Mobile Adventures app, your group will explore hidden side streets, discover iconic street art and tackle a series of engaging challenges, puzzles and photo tasks along the way. From trendy markets and converted warehouses to tucked-away bars and quirky landmarks, Shoreditch offers endless opportunities for teams to collaborate, compete and have fun together.
Whether you’re planning a company away day, conference activity or after-work team social, Shoreditch provides the perfect backdrop for an energetic and memorable event.

Can we host a festive outdoor team building activity?
Sure! Our outdoor team building activities are a great addition to any holiday party or end-of-year wrap-up event. Discover our range of festive team building activities here.
Do I need an internet connection?
Not all the time. Mobile Adventures is a secure, native app, and the whole activity downloads to your Team Captain’s phone before you start (Wi-Fi is easiest for this). Everything is stored on the phone, so the activity keeps working when signal comes and goes. With a basic data connection you’ll get the most out of it: your photos and videos reach our host as you go, and you’ll get live messages and bonus tasks. If you lose signal, keep playing. Everything uploads once you’re back on data.
Does Wildgoose provide smartphones and laptops?
No, the beauty of all our activities is that they can are played from your own smartphone.
Can you run an outdoor escape room in any city?
Almost anywhere, yes. Our GPS games are most often played in city centres, larger towns, or the grounds of a hotel or venue, and they work in any location where the route is safe with good paths and walkways.
We run outdoor team building activities across a wide range of locations, including several areas of London, but the same game runs just as well around your own office or in a nearby park. Just tell us where when you book. One thing worth knowing: Urban Explorer needs a town or city centre, because its photo and video challenges rely on landmarks and shops being close by. For a smaller town, hotel grounds or a venue like a theme park, we would point you at one of our other GPS games instead.
Do we need a Wildgoose host for outdoor activities?
We always recommend choosing one of our hosting options to create a high-energy experience for your team. However, we also offer a selection of self-managed team activities too.
How do outdoor escape games work?
You play outdoors on your own smartphones, guided by GPS. Teams set off from a start point you choose, and as each team reaches a GPS hotspot the app unlocks the next clue, puzzle or challenge.
One of our hosts briefs everyone at the start, stays on hand throughout to support teams and keep the energy up, then wraps up with the results at the end. Remote hosting comes as standard, and an onsite host can join your group in person instead for an additional fee. There is no equipment for us to deliver and nothing to install on site, which is why an outdoor escape game can be booked with as little as 24 hours’ notice.
