This three hour challenge is based upon a unique walking tour that shows you the most interesting sites in Lisbon. The tour is conducted via a tablet issued to participants that includes the map of the city, the route the teams should take, a digital camera, a movie camera and more. During the tour you can enjoy a ride on the famously picturesque Alfama nº28 tram OR one of the emblematic elevators.

Highlights:

Lisbon tascas are rapidly disappearing, taking with them the traditional café lifestyle. You will visit a surviving tasca serving a typical ginjinha (cherry liquor) to experience this taste of old Lisbon!

Photo challenge: using the tablet camera, teams receive a list of items that they have to photograph and set several tasks where the team must appear interacting with locals or in original poses next to emblematic sites around the city.

A trip to Lisbon cannot be complete without a ride on the typical E28 tram that links the Chiado Hill to the Alfama Hill, passing by the downtown quarter or if you prefer you can take a trip on one of our 4 typical elevators to ease the climbing of the 7 hills!

In this unique program participants get to create their own advertising clip, based on a Portuguese traditional item and relating it with a product of their own company. Teams will turn themselves into a filming crew, going through the entire process of imagining, producing and filming, being each one of them a specific part of the filming crew as well as actor and producer. The activity begins at the hotel with a briefing and all the materials are handled to the teams. Teams are then free to create their own movie and have access to a sample script that details various ways in which the movie can be done.  At the end of the activity, our staff will receive the materials and edit the movies in a way that they’ll be ready to show during a dinner ceremony or to be sent later by email.

Each team must do their best to implement their own ideas of how to create the boat (having only the casket, helixes and engine), using their own techniques, imagination and notions of hydrodynamics. Your boat can be the most beautiful piece of art to look at but sink as soon as it touches the water. The perfect metaphor for company ideas and innovations!

The TV Series AMAZING RACE has been a tremendous success all around the world. Imagine a program where all teams are racing against each other… they just don’t know where the finishing line is!  Lisbon’s Amazing Race is a crazy program in which you’ll have to go through the most incredible tasks in order to get to the end. Are you ready!? The structure of this event starts by a briefing made at the hotel, for the entire group. Here we will explain the basics of traveling in Lisbon with map, precautions and activity timings. After the briefing, teams start the activity on the exact same spot. Teams are completely free to choose where, when and how they want to go in terms of action zones. We will have a different route for each 100 people distributed randomly and the ending line is the same for all contestants. Each team receives a specific quantity of Euros and their goal is to get to the end passing by all the checkpoints. The goal is the same for all the groups and so the end will be an epic happening!

The activity begins at the hotel with a briefing where the general activity outlines are explained. After the briefing at the hotel (or any other point suitable for the group), the roadbooks give all the directions needed throughout the half-day program. The participants exit the Hotel and start the program by foot, following the directions on the roadbook to the activity site or by transfer (not included). In this particular program, the activities will be revealed from one task to another, as teams receive a sheet of paper with the description of the next activity they’ll participate in. Because some of the activities require a bit of planning, this will be the ideal way for participants to enjoy the city walk, as well as all the challenges we provide them.

Walking in Lisbon

Starting at the Hotel or Praça do Comércio, guests begin the walking tour following a roadbook containing the directions needed. The roadbook also contain information regarding the visited locations, city questions (company questions can be also added to the roadbook), questions that compel the participants to communicate with the locals and creative riddles.

After they complete any of the challenges, they receive a sheet of paper with the next challenge (explained in detail) this will allow them to get to a spot and immediately start the proof they have to pass, leaving no chances to delays and conglomerates of people in a determined area. There will be 10 action zones, so 3 teams for each zone at a time.

The Challenges / Action Zones
