Amazing Race Virtual Tour
Take your team online and compete in a thrilling journey around the world
Activity highlights
Event description
Explore, learn, create and be challenged together as you travel (virtually) to some of the most interesting and exotic locations around the globe using the power of online communication.
You start on a conference call greeted by your host. Then participants are put into individual ‘race breakout rooms’ where they can discuss and delegate tasks and be connected in real time as they’re led to famous landmarks in different countries and cities in virtual scenes. They will be tasked with a variety of challenges and fact finding missions to complete in order to move on in the race. Only the quickest and most efficient working teams will be able to reach and complete them all and get to the finish point first.
Teams will be presented with a combination of live cultural challenges and cryptic challenges to complete as they traverse the virtual race route. Each challenge will usually take about 15 minutes to complete.
Live cultural challenges:
Teams interact one on one with a local artisan or expert in a real-time video chat in order to complete a challenge, such as learning Muay Thai from an instructor in Bangkok or learning traditional Japanese calligraphy in Tokyo.
Cryptic cultural challenges:
Teams are tasked with solving puzzles by finding information that is hidden in virtual reality scenes – including language, music, customs, popular culture and much more.

FAQs
Amazing Race is a globetrotting adventure that doesn’t require you or your team to get a plane ticket. It’s often booked as a teambuilding activity, particularly for diverse teams as it enables them to explore the world and learn facts about different cultures. Teams will be presented with different cultural challenges as they travel through the world. Each challenge takes around 15 minutes to complete. Teams can also opt for the Live Cultural Challenge where they can interact with local artisans or subject experts in a real-time video chat to complete a challenge- it can be anything from learning Muay Thai in Bangkok to practising traditional Japanese calligraphy in Tokyo.
You’ll be sent a link before the event that needs to be shared with all the members of your team. The link will direct everyone to a conference call on Zoom where a link to the dedicated platform will be shared. Teams will be broken into smaller groups where they can delegate tasks and discuss ideas as they would do in real-time. They’ll virtually travel the world and visit famous landmarks and cities in different countries. Participants are tasked with fact-finding missions and a variety of challenges that they need to complete to move on in the race. The first team to reach and complete the mission is declared the winner.
Yes! It is an excellent activity for diverse teams or dispersed teams as they won’t only get to learn about each other’s culture, they will also get to share stories about their countries and bond with their peers. The game focuses on cultural diversity and facilitates communication among colleagues, so we recommend it for team-building activities.
