Team Building NZ Style

This amazing team adventure is a fusion of group think, interactive challenges and a race against time across, through and over the streets, parks and bustling CBD of Auckland. The adventure includes multi sensory puzzlers, physical challenges, problem solving tasks, building challenges and interactive game playing. By using the template of The Amazing Race in conjunction with Corporate Hijack and team dynamic training, the adventure has all the excitement of the TV show along with strong team growth components.

The experience begins with a fun brainteaser that helps spread the teams’ departure times by a few minutes. Teams are allocated a resource kit with travel vouchers, cash budget, maps and directions, as well as the rules for the day.

Once the race starts, teams must use their combined knowledge, experiences and race resources to get to the Auckland Casino. Team rivalry ensures the teams are all bustling to be first to arrive at the Auckland Casino, where they must locate a race facilitator to receive their first clue. Within the race clue envelope, teams will find instructions, directions, and a casino chip. Entering the gaming floor, teams must then select the game that they believe will give them the best chance of winning and increase their cash budget. Starting with the casino chip, each team must bet at least once on any of the games or machines in the Casino in their attempt to win enough money that will enable them to use faster modes of transport throughout the race.

Leaving the casino, richer or poorer, the teams then follow the clue to their next challenge in Queen Elizabeth Square. Teams will be required to participate in a Hawaiian Anthem Challenge.

After successfully completing the Hawaiian Challenge, teams will need to find the races one and only Checkpoint Challenge Stopover. They must select an option that they believe will be the fastest and easiest to complete.

Checkpoint Challenge 1. Maori Questionnaire Teams will be given a questionnaire on Maori culture to complete.
Checkpoint Challenge 2. Construct an Object
The teams must follow the directions to the next checkpoint located somewhere in the vicinity. Here they will locate instructions for a team challenge that requires the teams to build an object with only the resources provided. The object is then put to the test as the team performs a given task utilising the newly constructed object. Teams must successfully complete the task before they are given their next team clue.

Once the detour challenge has been completed, the facilitator will instruct the teams to their next location at Victoria Park Market. Once inside the markets they will search the stalls for the specific market stall as directed in the previous clue.
Teams will then make their way to the Waitemata Harbour where they will complete a Kayak challenge.
The mad dash is then on, as the leading teams race towards their chosen transport option, and make their way to the finish line.
Following the race instructions they will require the whole teams collective knowledge, and will give them the clue of how to best make their way to a popular drinking establishment for the final challenge where they will be required to count how many types of beer that are served at the main bar. The first (complete) team to cross the finish line with the correct number of beers will be declared the winner!
At any time during the race, teams may call an ‘emergency’ mobile number should they get lost, have difficulty locating clues, or have trouble finding transport. The teams that call the ‘emergency’ number will receive a time penalty once they reach the finish line.

Teams may choose to travel on buses, taxi, by foot, or any other mode of transport, depending on time restraints, budgets, vouchers, location and team decisions.

One rule: they must always stay together as a team

This high-energy activity will ensure your team has a fun, thought provoking and team-bonding afternoon.                         

The Amazing Race provides a sense of unity and a shared achievement that participants will be talking about for years to come.
