Do we need special equipment?

Just smartphones with data. The rally runs on a web app — no downloads needed. Teams of 3–5 work best.

Can we customise the route?

Yes. Many providers offer custom routes around your hotel area or preferred neighbourhoods. Company-themed challenges are available for premium packages.

City rallies are outdoor activities. Light rain adds adventure. For heavy rain, some providers switch to indoor museum variants or covered market routes.

A city rally and scavenger hunt in Lisbon costs €13–50 per person, takes 2–3 hours, and works for groups of 8 to 100 or more. Teams of 3–5 compete using smartphones across Lisbon's neighbourhoods, completing photo challenges at miradouros, solving Portuguese trivia, filming short videos at landmarks, and navigating GPS-tracked routes through Alfama, Chiado, and Belem. At €13–20 per person you get a self-guided digital hunt with GPS tracking and live leaderboard — no moderator on-site. At €40–50 per person expect a custom-designed rally with company-themed challenges, a professional moderator, surprise missions, and a results ceremony with projected highlights. No special equipment needed — just smartphones. Routes pass through narrow Alfama streets, across azulejo-tiled squares, up to miradouros with Tagus views, and past iconic trams. The competitive format and creative challenges break down workplace formality and let teams explore Lisbon while building connections. GalaCube curates 3–5 vetted city rally event matches and delivers them within 24 hours — free for you.

What to Expect

Teams gather at a central meeting point — typically Praca do Comercio or a square in Chiado. Each team receives their challenge briefing through a web app on smartphones. The challenges range from photo missions at miradouros to trivia about Lisbon's history, finding specific azulejo patterns, and filming creative videos at landmarks. The competitive energy kicks in immediately. Teams sprint through Alfama's narrow streets, debate the fastest route to the next checkpoint, and get creative with photo submissions. Locals often participate as judges or props. The shared absurdity of striking poses in public breaks down workplace formality instantly. Back at the finish point, teams submit final entries and gather for results. The best providers project winning photos and videos on screen, revealing each challenge's best submissions. Prizes, a group photo, and often a move to a nearby restaurant cap the event.

Best Locations in Lisbon

Alfama is the most dramatic rally territory — narrow streets, steep stairs, hidden viewpoints, and layers of history make every checkpoint an adventure. Chiado-Baixa offers a flatter, more accessible route through Lisbon's elegant centre with cultural landmarks. Belem provides a wider, waterfront route past monumental landmarks — best for rallies focusing on Discoveries history. Multi-neighbourhood routes that span Alfama-to-Chiado-to-Belem give the most varied experience.

Tips from Our Team

1.
Mix teams across departments and seniority levels — the rally format naturally equalises when everyone is photographing silly poses at equal speed.
2.
Set a clear finish time and location — teams always underestimate how far apart they spread across Lisbon's hills.
3.
Alfama routes require reasonable mobility — steep cobblestone streets can be challenging. Ask about accessible route alternatives for anyone with mobility limitations.
4.
Combine with a team lunch at the finish — Time Out Market (Mercado da Ribeira) near Cais do Sodre is a popular rally endpoint with food for every taste.
