Hi Joanne,

I just wanted to thank you very much for the Hampstead Treasure Hunt on Saturday 14th August 2010

It was a complete surprise for my wife and all our friends! Some of the people who even used to live in Hampstead discovered new aspects of the area and the walk was fabulous.

The afternoon was a success thanks to your self managed treasure hunt. It is actually very well done and everyone enjoyed it very much (including the less playful of the bunch).

I will certainly be a returning customer.

Regards

Julien Meyfret

Hi Richard,

A good evening was had by all who took part [on 29th July 2010].

The cryptic clues were of your usual high standard!

I think this is the fourth route our social club has used of yours (which shows how popular the event is with us).

I'll get back to you when people start demanding the next treasure hunt outing to choose a route.

All the best,

Neal Murphy

Hi Richard,

I'd like to thank you for organising a great event for us on 28th July 2010.

Everyone really liked it, the mixture of competitiveness, observation skills, team work and creativity proved to be exactly the right thing for our company.

My colleagues and I thoroughly enjoyed it and the taunting continued well into the evening.

Thanks again.

I'll gladly recommend you to anyone who is looking for a fun team event!

Kind regards,

Nomsa Buchholz

Hi Joanne and Richard

We wanted to thank you for coordinating such a fantastic event on the 15th July 2010!

The competitive juices were flowing even before the packs were distributed and as soon as we were off there was no doubt that everyone got into the spirit of the event.

What was amazing was seeing people discover the area that we spend so much of our time in every day - buildings that we blindly walk by all of a sudden became pivotal to our success as a team and people suddenly saw the City through very different eyes.

The Treasure Hunt was a chance for us all to be children again and is definitely something we'll be talking about for a long time to come. Many thanks,

Rachel Megitt

Hi Joanne

We have been on our Docklands Treasure Hunt and had a great time.

Many thanks for another brilliant treasure hunt! We are planning our one for next year already.

Hi there Joanne!

Thank you for your usual speedy response.

We are planning to do this year's Treasure Hunt on Friday 16 July 2010

This will be our third consecutive treasure hunt - we asked 15 staff what they wanted to do for our away day this year and every single person voted to do another treasure hunt! They are brilliant and really get the team working together while having a very enjoyable fun day out!

Thank you.

Christine
London Metropolitan University

Dear Joanne

Thank you and your colleagues very much for a very enjoyable and challenging treasure hunt!

We purchased the treasure hunt self-managed pack for Chelsea which we used on 10th June 2010.

All staff members had a really great time that afternoon. It was a fantastic way of getting to know the area in which we work.

With best wishes

Hi Richard and Jo,

Thank you very much for the Treasury Hunt you organised.

The route was ideal and the pose questions were inspired.

Fortunately there are no shy wallflowers amongst my guests so they embraced the pose challenges with gusto (a lot of interesting takes on a tree).

Thank you again for providing us with a memorable and entertaining day out.

Many thanks and kind regards

Hello there

I recently purchased a self managed Covent Garden Treasure hunt from yourselves for my sisters hen weekend.

I just wanted to tell you what a fantastic time we had!

The treasure hunt rules were very straight forward and although some of us struggled through some of the clues we got there in the end!

A truly memorable day, so thank you very much.

Regards

Victoria Ead

Dear Richard and Joanne,

I just wanted to say thank you very much on behalf of my team for preparing the brilliant Greenwich Treasure Hunt, which we all took part in last Friday.

Everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves – with competitive streaks coming out of some unsuspecting members!

The weather was perfect and we couldn’t have asked for a better day out.

People have been asking me for your details as they were so impressed, so I won’t hesitate in recommending you.

We have also all definitely become more observant in the past few days, looking up and around at things we wouldn’t normally spot!

Extra special thanks for double-checking the Greenwich route twice beforehand, and for making last minute necessary changes to the clues!

Thanks again for a well-organised, fun pack. I’m looking forward to future treasure hunts in other parts of London!

With kind regards,

Michelle Ringer
Save The Children

Hi Joanne

My colleagues who ran the event last week had lots of fun – the person who managed it said ‘All in all it was a good day.

So, the reputation of the Treasure Hunt has spread again and I have some more colleagues who want to run it in December.

Hi Joanne

I just wanted to write to you to say thank you for making our Xmas party so amazing! I have never seen our team enjoy an event, be so competitive and laugh so much!

The packs were self explanatory, very well presented and the right balance of challenging and fun!

At one point my husband’s team thought they had all the things to collect, except when they checked the list they saw it said ‘white beard’ and they had bought ‘white bread’ they thought it was hysterical!

Many thanks again – and we will definitely be returning next year!

Amanda and all at Lifeline IT

Hi Joanne and Richard

My thanks to you both for organising/running our London treasure hunt last night.

I've received some very positive feedback this morning and by all accounts the group had a great time!

They particularly enjoyed the Polaroid round which I understand caused much amusement back at the Prophet!

Sorry I missed you last night Richard and thanks especially to you for your energy and enthusiasm.

Best wishes

Hi Joanne,

I went away for a week after our treasure hunt so am only just back in the office.

Just wanted to let you know that a good time was had by all and I will certainly be recommending your company to my colleagues and friends.

I have worked in the City for 7 years and thought I know the area pretty well but the route still managed to surprise me.

Some of the clues were a bit hard though!

Thanks again,

Robert Bull

Morning Richard/Jo,

Just wanted to say thank you once again for an absolutely brilliant evening last Thursday.

The Treasure Hunt was again very well organised and thought out. Everyone really enjoyed themselves and the photo in the phone box was a great idea.

I look forward to working with you again next year on our Treasure Hunt.

Take care.

Regards,

Joanne Nicholson

Richard

This is just a quick email to say thank you very much for the Treasure Hunt you supplied us for Friday.

It was great value for money, very well thought out, the packs looked lovely and we all had a fantastic time.

Not only that, but there are some lovely hidden gems in and around King’s Cross that we have now discovered!

If we ever move offices again, we will be back for another hunt around the new area!

Once again, many thanks.

Regards,

Laura Fox

It has been a long day but I just wanted to say thanks very much for the great treasure hunt you organised for us. Challenging, fun and informative.

We all really enjoyed it.

Kind regards

Hello

Just wanted to let you know the treasure hunt went down very well with my colleagues and we all wanted to send you our thanks.

Hello,

I purchased your self managed Riverside Treasure Hunt for my fiancé's 30th birthday.

About twenty of us plodded from Mansion House to Borough and we all had a fantastic time.

So much so that, whilst having celebratory drinks in the George, we all said that we should do another one.

I know that your Historic Pubs tour states that it cannot be done on a Saturday or Sunday (presumably because the bars in the City are shut?) but would you consider preparing a pub based tour that could be done at the weekend?

Perhaps you could let me know if you do plan to introduce this - not only would my friends and I be up for it, I suspect it would appeal to various stag (and hen) dos?

Karen Ferries

Hi Joanne,

I wanted to let you know we thoroughly enjoyed the Westminster Treasure Hunt.

It was certainly challenging and not all teams were able to complete in the time decided, but everyone agreed it was fun and a great team building exercise.

We would definitely recommend it to others and hopefully undertake another one in the future.

Hi Joanne

Just writing to let you know that the team had a truly fantastic time with the Treasure Hunt.

It made us explore the Fleet Street and Temple area, the way that we would not have done so otherwise.

A truly successful team event, and one that is also very reasonably priced

The thing we liked most is the flexibility and that the organisers could also take part in them.

Thank you.

Hi Joanne

We did our Treasure Hunt round the City last Wednesday afternoon. We were so lucky with the weather as it was a lovely day, which obviously helps, and we had a great time.

Thanks so much, it was a great team building event and we had a lot of fun working out all of the clues.

I have recommended you to other teams/friends who might wish to use your expertise!

Kind regards

Richard,

Thanks very much for sending us the revised Riverside Hunt. We finally did it on Friday afternoon (missing the rain) and thoroughly enjoyed it.

The balance of clues, questions and pictures was right. We all learnt something new and realised how much history we miss by not looking around!

Many thanks,

Roland

Richard.

On behalf of my company and Fragile X, I would like to thank you very much for your London Treasure hunt.

We had 37 teams and over 150 people at the final venue. Your Treasure Hunt was extremely well thought of and everyone enjoyed it thoroughly, whilst learning a little about the City in which we work.

Once again many many thanks,

Wishing you every success in your business.

Kindest regards,

Dear Richard

Just to say how much we enjoyed our self-managed treasure hunt yesterday. We had 25 of us in 5 teams and all had a great time.

We'll definitely be using you again in the future.

Dear Richard,

We completed our tailor made Hunt yesterday with a lot of success.

The team had a good day and as you predicted they all had a lot of fun getting as many people as possible into a phone box!

I completed the hunt, just walking the route myself following the clues on Friday and did it in an hour. All the teams completed the whole event in about 1hour and 45minutes which was perfect.

Thank you so much for all your help and dedication to making this a fun hunt!

A BIG THANK YOU!

Hi Richard,

I just thought I would let you know that the Hunt you put together for us was superb, the whole party had a great day, the hunt was extremely well prepared with excellent clues, questions and a lot of fun was had by all.... with the odd stop over at local pubs to gather info!!!

Thanks again for supplying an excellent package, I will definitely be recommending your services in the future.

Regards,

Dan Bungay

Good morning Richard

Firstly can I just say a huge Thanks from us all for yesterday. Everybody had a fantastic time and really enjoyed themselves.

Hello,

I was part of the group from the Home Office at the Away day at the Tate Modern yesterday.

I really enjoyed the Treasure Hunt and would be grateful if you could send me the pdf files - so I can do it again - this time the right way round!

Thanks again - it was great fun!

Just a quick e-mail to thank you for all your help - the treasure hunt was a great success with all the teams asking when we can do it again!!

So....any ideas for one we could maybe do as a Christmas function or do you do anything different?

Thanks

I have to say, everybody was very impressed with the hunt. We all had a fantastic time.

Thank you very much for that.

We hope to do more of them in the future.

Good morning Richard,

Just a quick note to thank you for the treasure hunt packs.

Everybody had a great time trying to find the things shown on the pictures and to answer the observation questions.

We were lucky with the weather as it did not rain much.

It was a great evening!

Thanks again

We look forward to working with you again in the future and of course on Thursday with our Jack the Ripper tours.

Many thanks

Yet again another very successful evening, thank you so much for all your hard work and effort.

Everyone really enjoyed themselves and lots of people have commented on how the Treasure Hunt is done so well. All down to you.

We loved the packs, colourful and easy to follow. We look forward to working with you again for next year's BAM Treasure Hunt...
