Scavenger Hunts in Palo Alto

A team-building game near San Francisco you can play anywhere

Celebrate all things Palo as well as Alto by completing a variety of surprising challenges on a scavenger hunt you can play anywhere. On teams, you’ll take creative team photos, find or create unusual items, crack a mystery message, and meet with the Hunt Host for a bonus challenge. And many of the tasks will prompt you to celebrate the people, places, food, and history of Palo Alto.

Your team might be challenged to…

• Find an object that’s made better by being broken (hey, it’s not a bug, it’s a feature)
• Take a photo of the team with a tree that exaggerates its size, since Palo Alto means “tall tree”
• Posing for a “Eureka!” moment in front of a garage, in honor of the “Birthplace of Silicon Valley,” the garage where Hewlett and Packard started in 1938.

You might also search for Stanford alum Herbert Hoover, track down an energy drink for those all-nighters on the computer, munch on a cookie in honor of the Lou Henry Hoover Girl Scout House, and generally flaunt your ingenuity and teamwork.

You pick the location, we’ll bring the fun. We’ve been creating and staging amazing scavenger hunts and other team building games in the San Francisco Bay Area since 2005. Contact us to learn more—and find more fun in Palo Alto!

Beware: there’s a killer in your midst

Someone playing this game with you is a bit of a Jekyll and Hyde. His or her good side knows nothing about the evil side—and the evil side has challenged you to prevent your own murder. Everyone in your group has been poisoned, and the clock is ticking down on your time left to live. To reveal the killer’s identity, you’ll have to complete a series of photo challenges, solve interlocking puzzles, decipher coded text messages, and more. If you succeed, you get the antidote. If you fail…well, you know.

If you love escape-room games, you’ll love this scavenger hunt. But even better, you won’t be locked in a room for an hour: this game can be played almost anywhere.
