Overview:
Choose a city, grab your thinking caps, tighten the laces on your sneakers and brush off last night's hangover - it's treasure hunt time. The quick-thinking and energetic lead the way whilst the dim and out-of-breath trail behind like dead wood. This exciting urban puzzle will have you scratching your heads and recruiting your collective mystery solving skills to beat the other teams in a race against the clock.

This isn't your run-of-the-mill, pen and paper treasure hunt. No, no. We wouldn't insult you with anything but the latest and best. Utilising text message technology and scratch cards, this is the most comprehensive, organised and up-to-date treasure hunt there is, pummelling the competitors into the ground with its worldwide experience.

Format:
The group will need to divide themselves up into teams of 3-5 participants, with each team receiving a ‘Team Pack'.
Self run, you choose the order in which you complete the clues in 6 coloured zones.

The text messaging technology allows the teams to enter the game, name their team, record their finish time and receive notification of the winning team all via a mobile phone. You'll scratch off blocks corresponding to your answers on the scratch cards provided, finally revealing an alpha-numerical code which you'll text in to find out if you were successful or if you'll need to try again. Sound complicated? Far from it, this is the smoothest running treasure hunt we've ever seen.

Meeting back at the agreed finishing venue you'll meet up with the other teams to find out who was best and worst and sort out the Columbos from the Magoos.

Notes:
- Groups of 5-10 recieve 2 packs / Groups of 10-15 recieve 3 packs / Groups of 15-20 recieve 4 packs and so on...
- Each team will need a fully charged mobile phone to use for texting.
- The text messaging feature is free-to-use for UK mobile phones in the UK.
- Suitable footwear and clothing is advised.

Overview:
The Dutch have two great loves: getting intoxicated and cycling. This event combines the best of both. Drink-driving might be illegal in England but in Amsterdam you're positively encouraged to get tanked up and go for a joy ride around the city.

You may think you're hallucinating when you see a 18-seater bar on wheels approaching, but it's not the weed you've been smoking: it's the best way to enjoy the sights of Amsterdam whilst getting seriously hammered.

The bar comes complete with a (sober) guide who'll drive the vehicle through the streets whilst you and your mates help yourselves to the bar's unlimited free beer and lend a foot with the pedalling. There'll be a sound system on board pumping out the greatest hits of 2Unlimited to get you in the party mood, so don a helmet and bicycle clips and get cycling on the Tour de Lash. Best drinker gets a yellow jersey.

Included:
- Driver
- Safety briefing
- Unlimited free beer!
- Music
- Tour of Amsterdam

Duration:
- 2 hours

Notes:
- Minimum 12 people

Overview:
You're coming down the final straight with a clear track in front of you. You've taken the last corner and you can taste victory, sweet victory. Your mates are eating your dust and for one brief moment you're a king. Not of the world, but of the circuit and that's what counts.

On the outskirts of Amsterdam you will find the track of titans: Europe's largest indoor karting venue. You'll be treated like the kings you are with a VIP grand prix package that includes one practice race so you can learn the ropes, three real races and, of course, the grand prix final. The three best drivers will be awarded trophies which can take pride of place on the mantelpiece back home.

As if all this isn't enough, the stag will get an extra special treat: a ride on the wall of death! If the condemned man is the type who gets frightened on a kid's rollercoaster, this will put years on him. You've probably seen footage of Evel Knievel and fellow daredevils riding motorbikes virtually horizontal on the inside wall of a giant barrel; well, the stag will follow in their footsteps behind the wheel of a go kart. It's a test of courage and driving skill so give your mate plenty of encouragement and enjoy his petrified face!

Included:
- One practice race
- Three heats
- One grand final
- Trophy for the best three drivers
- Transfers
- Free beer for winner after event 

Duration:
Allow half a day for this event.

Notes:

This is Europe's largest indoor snowboarding centre and, with real snow, it definitely gives the slopes of Alps a run for their money. Choose from two runs, one of 230 metres and another at 100 metres and a variety of jumps for those of you who can serve up a little special something. This event is definitely white hot and is a perfect precursor for some serious partying later.

For one and a half hours you'll experience a whole new world of brewed taste sensations from Blonde to Dark and back again, it's exactly like tasting the sweet amber coldness of beer for the first time.

Overview:
Outside the bustle of central Amsterdam there's a twelve hectare forest where man's more primal instincts are free to take over. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to shoot the stag and make him pay for all the times he got out of buying beers for everyone. His mission is to defy the odds and make you pay for dressing him up in a bunny suit while he ducks and covers from the hurtling paintballs. This is a stag weekend classic. You'll feel your heart beating out of your chest as you stake out your target and try your hand at becoming Europe's top paintball sniper.

The Site:
Anyone who's had a bad experience paintballing knows that there is nothing worse than finding out your ‘brilliant outdoor site' is nothing more than an empty field with a few rickety crates and barrels in it. Lucky for you there's no risk of that happening here: this is a genuine forest that comes with all the nooks and crannies that forests have, so you can recreate any Platoon fantasies you may have been harbouring since you were 11 years old.

This event is all about competition. After the instrutors take you through the saftey aspects of firing these bad boys you'll have the chance to literally shoot it out to find who is the best and who is doing the bar run all night.

Groups can normally have five or six all shooting at once so it's perfect for groups that don't want to be standing around watching.
