Hire outdoor scavenger hunts
in Palo Alto.
Custom-themed outdoor hunts at iconic venues across all 11 metros — Venice Beach, Central Park, Millennium Park, Discovery Green, Wynwood, the Embarcadero, and more. Custom challenges, custom scoring, and a host who keeps the energy.
Bay Area team building splits across three buyers — South Bay tech HQs (Apple, Google, Nvidia, Adobe, Cisco) that want polished outdoor or onsite-campus formats, SF startups and agencies running offsites in SoMa and Hayes Valley, and East Bay corporate teams in Oakland and Berkeley that want grounded creative-corridor experiences. We host outdoor scavenger hunts through the Embarcadero, Golden Gate Park, and around Levi's Stadium, custom murder mysteries at private SF and Palo Alto venues, and game shows for all-hands at the Computer History Museum and Tech Interactive. Working improv performers as hosts, multilingual options available, briefed on your culture before showing up. 100% W-2, AB-5 compliant.
Common routes: Embarcadero + Ferry Building + Pier 39, Mission District murals + Dolores Park, Jack London Square in Oakland, and Santana Row + Valley Fair in San Jose.

Questions Palo Alto buyers ask about outdoor scavenger hunts.
Can Palo Alto groups do a scavenger hunt indoors or outdoors?+
Both. Outdoor hunts run in Palo Alto's walkable neighborhoods and parks across San Jose & the Bay Area; indoor and venue-based hunts work for offsites, conferences, and weather-sensitive bookings. We custom-build the route and challenges around your venue and your team's mobility needs.
What's the right team size for a Palo Alto scavenger hunt?+
We run hunts from 20-250 participants in Palo Alto, split into competing teams of 4-8. Below 20 the format gets thin; above 250 we add additional hosts and recommend a parallel format. We'll right-size hosts and challenge density once we know your group size and time window.
Do you handle the logistics — app, props, hosts, scoring — for Palo Alto hunts?+
Yes — end-to-end. App-based challenges (we build them custom), props delivered to your venue or kickoff point in Palo Alto, professional host(s) running the show, live scoring, and a closing ceremony with prizes. You show up with your team; we handle everything else.
How customized is a Showcraft scavenger hunt for a Palo Alto group?+
Fully. Challenges are themed to your company, inside jokes, values, or industry. Routes are mapped to your venue in Palo Alto and your team's preferred neighborhoods in San Jose & the Bay Area. Hosts are briefed on your team's names and personalities before kickoff. Send a brief 2-3 weeks out for the cleanest custom build.
