Treasure Hunt
in the footsteps of Joan of Arc.

A corporate treasure hunt in Orléans primarily takes place in the historic centre, rich in heritage. The most requested areas are Sainte-Croix Cathedral and its district, Place du Martroi and its statue of Joan of Arc, the House of Joan of Arc and the pedestrian street, the lively Rue de Bourgogne, as well as the quais de Loire. Happy Unity has a ready-to-use route for Old Orléans and can also design a rally in the district of your choice or directly within your Orléans premises.

Yes. In Orléans, the indoor format notably takes place in the Musée des Beaux-Arts, renowned for its painting collections, very close to Sainte-Croix Cathedral. Teams solve observation riddles in front of the artworks, sheltered from the weather. It's the ideal format to combine culture and team cohesion during a seminar, and it also serves as a backup plan in case of bad weather.

After an on-site briefing, your colleagues are divided into teams of 4 to 8 people and receive a tablet, or use their smartphone. They then follow an Orléans route punctuated by riddles, photo challenges, and observation tasks, geolocated by the Indiana app, from Place du Martroi to the banks of the Loire. Points accumulate towards a final ranking and, if you wish, a prize-giving ceremony. A Happy Unity facilitator oversees the entire event.

Our Orléans treasure hunts adapt equally well to a dozen colleagues or several hundred participants divided into simultaneous teams. Thanks to the live dashboard of the Indiana app, we multiply the checkpoints between Sainte-Croix Cathedral, Place du Martroi, and the quais de Loire to avoid congestion and maintain a smooth pace, up to 5,000 people for very large events.

The weather will not compromise your Orléans event. Each outdoor route has an indoor Plan B: a switch to the Musée des Beaux-Arts, city centre galleries, or your own premises. The decision is generally made 24 hours beforehand, and the Indiana app instantly reloads the backup route without losing any of the experience.

Yes. Our Orléans scenarios prioritise observation, reflection, and cooperation rather than physical performance. The challenges are varied so that everyone can contribute their skills, regardless of age or role. As Orléans city centre is largely pedestrianised and flat, particularly around Place du Martroi and Rue de Bourgogne, the routes remain accessible to all.

Yes. The pedestrian heart of Orléans, from Place du Martroi to the vicinity of Sainte-Croix Cathedral, offers a generally flat route, suitable for accessible paths. We adjust the itinerary to favour wide streets and open squares, and to follow the quais de Loire via adapted access points. Please inform us of your needs in advance: our project managers will adapt the points of interest accordingly.

Absolutely. We rewrite the scenario around your brand, your values, a product launch, or an internal message. Riddles, challenges, visuals, and prize-giving are adapted, and the route can connect locations important to your company, your Orléans site, a seminar venue, or a symbolic monument like Sainte-Croix Cathedral, for a unique experience.

That depends on your objective. To discover the historic centre, opt for a geolocated urban rally in Old Orléans. For a short slot during a seminar, choose the City Express. For a large group, the multi-team format with real-time rankings is ideal, and for a gourmet experience, the Gourmet Rally connects the best Loire Valley addresses, featuring Loire Valley wines and local specialities. Our project managers will guide you based on the number of participants and available time.

A route generally lasts between 1h30 and 2h30 in Orléans, including briefing and final rankings. This duration adjusts to your programme: a short City Express version for a half-day seminar, or a longer format combined with lunch or an evening event by the Loire.

Everything is provided. Your teams play via our Indiana app, on the tablets we provide or on their smartphones. No complex installation: the app geolocates teams in Orléans, triggers riddles at the correct location, and automatically calculates the rankings. You don't need to prepare anything technical.

For over 20 years, Happy Unity has been designing team building experiences and knows the Orléans area, from Place du Martroi to the quais de Loire. We manage reconnaissance, authorisations, and local logistics, from the smallest group to events for several thousand people. A dedicated project manager will support you from conception to facilitation, with our in-house developed Indiana app for a seamless and 100% customisable experience.
