All of our students really enjoyed the Urban Quest experience. They were definitely challenged and all worked well in their teams. I found out on the day, that a phone and a screen was needed for the race, which could of been communicated before the day so I could organise that prior to the event instead of on the day.

Urban Quest ran an onsite activity session for my workplace. It was great fun and Serge and Sophie were wonderful hosts. I would definitely recommend Urban Quest for your team building needs.

Thank you very much, Serge for being such a wonderful host for our team building activity. This is by far the best team building event the team has experienced as evident from responses in a recent engagement feedback survey. Well done for ensuring all 5 teams were fully engaged. The Quest was very well set up using technology, well paced to explore Melbourne CBD and together with the Strategic Debrief session, had achieved the team engagement outcomes we wanted. To quote feedback received from one of our team members - "We met up as a team and departed as a family". Excellent stuff!

We recently picked Urban Quest for a team building activity and couldn’t be happier with the decision. We had a number of new team members along with many coming from interstate and we were seeking an activity that encouraged team members to engage with those they may not traditionally in their day to day roles. The Oceans 11 activity was great fun for all and even those with reservations really enjoyed the activity. The whole team are looking forward to trying another urban quest activity in the months ahead.

Our team had lots of fun. Everything was well organised, engaging, the right level of challenging and enjoyable. Serge was fantastic on the day and the whole team's service from start to finish made everything super easy to arrange. Thanks again

Urban Quest provides exhilarating team building adventures inspired by the Amazing Race concept, focusing on problem-solving and collaboration. We offer tailored group activities for both corporate and educational organizations in Melbourne, with various game routes and indoor/virtual options.
How does Urban Quest compare to an Amazing Race event?
While similar to Amazing Race with exploration and challenges, Urban Quest is an evolution of the concept. Our events are purpose-designed for genuine team outcomes, stronger collaboration, and engaging gameplay powered by smart technology, offering deeper connection and impact.
Can you explain how an Urban Quest event works?
Groups are divided into teams of 4-5, accessing our game platform via smartphones for instructions, answers, and Augmented Reality clues. Teams navigate the city or campus, solving puzzles and challenges that require communication, creativity, and quick thinking. Paper-based formats are also available.
What is the typical schedule for an Urban Quest event?
The day begins with arrival and a brief from your event host. Teams then embark on their journey to solve clues and challenges. After completion, there's a celebratory wrap-up with scores, achievements, and the crowning of the victorious team.
What is the recommended team size for an Urban Quest?
For optimal engagement, we suggest teams of 4-5 participants, ensuring everyone actively contributes. However, team sizes can be adjusted from 3 to 8 members per team to accommodate different needs.
How long does an Urban Quest event typically last?
Urban Quest events usually last between 2 to 2.5 hours, which includes the pre-event brief and post-event awards. This duration is designed to balance engagement and objectives without overwhelming participants.
Are food and drink options available during the event?
Yes, we partner with some of Melbourne’s finest venues that offer options for meals and drinks. These can be arranged with our partner venues, typically located at the start/finish point of your event.
What happens if there is bad weather on the day of the event?
If the weather is particularly bad or you prefer an indoor option, we offer the 'Black Friday Quest' which is entirely indoors. You can select this when booking or switch to it on the day, ensuring your event is never cancelled due to weather.
