What our clients say: "Thank you so much for a memorable event, I think we all got something out of it including some new knowledge of Canberra so that was great. I have received nothing but great feedback from our team!" Anne-Maree Reid. Corporate Express

This activity is based on the popular “Amazing Race TV series, in which small teams have to race each around a series of interesting locations while also undertaking challenges on route to test a diversity of skills. This activity is conducted in a range of locations around Canberra, the most popular being the Commonwealth Park area. Typically the journey covers about 3kms and lasts 3 hours, the team tasks completed on route earn bonus points with the highest scoring team in the time available being the winner.The activity is set up as a fun competition between the teams and is not usually de-briefed.

Corporate Eco-challenge
A fun corporate challenge that starts on mountain bike in the magnificent forests surrounding Black Mountain. Each team has to navigate through the myriad of trails down to the foreshore of Lake Burley Griffin. A short paddle across the lake takes you to Weston Park and Yarralumla Bay where an orienteering course with some mental mind twisters awaits you. Finish up with a BBQ in the picturesque park.
