Corporate Treasure Hunt - Vieux Lyon

What awaits you.

Set sail for Vieux Lyon: your teams will unwind amidst mysteries and laughter. An invigorating experience awaits! This is one of our corporate treasure hunts: 1h30 to 2h30, from 10 participants. Find it among our treasure hunts in Lyon.

Immerse your teams in the largest Renaissance district in France! Traboules (covered passageways) that go through buildings, courtyards with galleries, Saint-Jean Cathedral and its astronomical clock: your colleagues will find their way at their own pace. A challenge awaits at every stage: orientation, observation, search, creative challenge, blind test, photo challenge, puzzle or mini-games. Vieux Lyon only reveals itself to those who push its doors open.

What you will experience together:

  • Progress at your own pace through Vieux Lyon and unlock cultural riddles
  • Tackle photo or music challenges with agility and team spirit
  • Celebrate every victory and strengthen your colleagues' collective pride

Price of a treasure hunt in Vieux Lyon

The treasure hunt in Vieux Lyon costs from €1,490 excl. VAT for 10 participants, which is €149 per person. The pricing scale then applies by group size: €1,690 excl. VAT for up to 30 participants (i.e. €56 per person); €4,590 excl. VAT for up to 100 participants (i.e. €46 per person); €8,090 excl. VAT for up to 200 participants (i.e. €40 per person). These amounts are those shown in the price simulator for the location's postcode.

Beyond 200 participants, the scale ends and the price is provided as a bespoke quote. To compare with another format in the category, take a look at the treasure hunt at the Lyon Museum of Fine Arts.

Organising a treasure hunt in Vieux Lyon during a seminar

The treasure hunt in Vieux Lyon can be scheduled within a corporate seminar as a 1h30 to 2h30 session, briefing and results announcement included: the format fits within a half-day. The route is done on foot from a single meeting point, allowing it to be combined with a morning meeting or an evening dinner without additional logistics.

  • A bonding time: mixed teams, informal exchanges, and shared memories.
  • A clear sequence for participants: a start, challenges, a ranking, an award ceremony.
  • A format that can be integrated into a larger corporate event, conference, or corporate party.

Route, tablets, and schedule

The schedule consists of four stages: briefing and distribution of a tablet per team, choice of a route through the streets and traboules of the historic district, photo, video, and observation riddles triggered by the interactive map, followed by the announcement of the ranking and prize ceremony.

The host officiates live via chat. The route is outdoors, and the activity is cancelled in case of severe weather, starting from an orange alert. For an indoor alternative, consider the treasure hunt at the Musée des Confluences. You will find other comparable formats among our corporate treasure hunts.

Number of participants and profiles

The activity is designed for 10 participants and up, with no upper limit announced. It is suitable for a department or an entire company: teams are formed during the briefing, making it a great integration tool for colleagues who don't often interact. Teams are then composed of 6 to 8 people.

The rally is on foot: participants must be comfortable walking in Vieux Lyon for the duration of the activity. In terms of skills, the game combines orientation, observation, and general knowledge: everyone finds a role within their team, and no one needs to know the area in advance. If your group size or context differs from this, we also create bespoke formats; otherwise, City Express covers a similar need.
