• Public Hunts: Meet inside the British Museum’s Great Court, upon entering the main entrance (Great Russell St), turn left to find the 7-ton Knidos Lion, beside the large circular info desk. We’ll be waiting in front of his absent eyes! • Private Hunts: We’ll meet outside the museum, in front of Starbucks (51 Great Russell St, which is across the road, facing the museum’s main entrance), before joining the security queue together. Either hunt requires you to book entry tickets (free, on the BM ticket page)(https://ticketing.britishmuseum.org/events?k=general%20admission&_gl=1*wih8w8*_gcl_aw*R0NMLjE3NjI5NTEyOTIuQ2p3S0NBaUFfZERJQmhCNkVpd0F2emMxY1BXSERiWWMxMnFNVzdxNEFLUzlydEEyWGtCcFU4XzByX3dYTUt5V2FWQ3EzN2dVakdHNDBob0MweDhRQXZEX0J3RQ..*_gcl_au*NTc5MzUzNDI5LjE3NjI5NTEyOTI.*_ga*MzM0NDQ4MTYwLjE3NjI5NTEyOTI.*_ga_08TLB9R8X1*czE3NjI5NTEyOTAkbzEkZzEkdDE3NjI5NTEyOTQkajU2JGwwJGgw)

Certainly! We've hosted corporate team building treasure hunts to customised Culture Quizzes. From intimate client hosting (SMEs & start ups) to high-profile discreet hunts (embassies) to large employee engagement events of 200 people (and plenty of Fortune 500 / FTSE-company office fun days between).

Let the fun begin! Fill in the Contact Form (https://www.culturequesthunt.com/contact-me)with: - a few dates - a head count (ball park is fine to get the ball rolling) - if you'd like us to build a customised hunt (we embed fun questions about the birthday boy/girl that you think of / gather from loved ones)

Roles can overlap per teammate, but the following skills are pulled on: • 🧭 Indiana Jones (Navigator), good with a map. • 📸 Annie Liebowitz (Photographer), ready to snap your team selfie with each treasure. • ✍️Shakespeare (Scribe) or perhaps that accountant son of yours who doesn’t let a point escape his win-streak! • 📖 Hermione Granger (Reader), at the ready to catch light-hearted bonus challenges embedded in the text.

Public Hunts -- meeting at the Knidos Lion, within the BM’s Great Court -- start promptly at: • 10:30 AM on Tuesdays and Fridays • 1:30 PM on the first Saturday of the month Queues can be long! Book your museum entry tickets (free, BM ticket link here)(https://ticketing.britishmuseum.org/events?k=general%20admission&_gl=1*wih8w8*_gcl_aw*R0NMLjE3NjI5NTEyOTIuQ2p3S0NBaUFfZERJQmhCNkVpd0F2emMxY1BXSERiWWMxMnFNVzdxNEFLUzlydEEyWGtCcFU4XzByX3dYTUt5V2FWQ3EzN2dVakdHNDBob0MweDhRQXZEX0J3RQ..*_gcl_au*NTc5MzUzNDI5LjE3NjI5NTEyOTI.*_ga*MzM0NDQ4MTYwLjE3NjI5NTEyOTI.*_ga_08TLB9R8X1*czE3NjI5NTEyOTAkbzEkZzEkdDE3NjI5NTEyOTQkajU2JGwwJGgw) 20 to 30 minutes in advance to allow for security lines, cloakroom & maybe a dash to the loo, prior to our prompt start-time. Late arrivals will miss the briefing (giving other teams the advantage!). But unfortunately we can't delay the group. We also host bi-monthly Culture Quizzes the first Friday of the month, often at the Victorian Princess Louise pub in Holborn (near the BM).

• Teams comprise 2 to 4 players (5, if kids are included) • Public Hunts: Minimum of 6 participants and a maximum of 30 • Children: Teams with kids under 13 must include an adult • Younger Kids under 7 years old play free (parents read to their kids)

Nope! Entry to the British Museum is free however, in order to enter the front entrance (advised, as lines are half the time), you need to register a ticket on the BM website here: https://ticketing.britishmuseum.org/events?k=general%20admission (https://ticketing.britishmuseum.org/events?k=general%20admission)

• Front Entrance (Great Russell Street): is reserved for people with tickets (which are free and registered at this ticket link)(https://ticketing.britishmuseum.org/events?k=general%20admission). The line moves quickly for those with tickets (whose timing is arbitrary). • Back Entrance (Montague St): This line can be up to 45 minutes+ on weekends and holidays, and is for groups and non-ticket holders.

• your phone fully charged - or even better, an extra battery pack - for your photos (upon finding your treasure a team selfie's needed as proof!) • Comfy shoes -- the Great Court alone is the largest covered public square in Europe • A pen or pencil for the scribe of your team

The museum does not allow large objects or luggage inside, but here’s a convenient left luggage site (https://luggagehero.com/london/british-museum/?utm_source=chatgpt.com)you can use nearby.

• Public Hunts: are with friendly competition, where teams (of 2 to 4 people) play against each other. Upon meeting (within the Great Court, after security lines), you’re briefed, teams strategise, and after regrouping, we tally scores within the museum • Private Hunts: you can schedule your hunt as per your schedule, we meet outside the museum, after security lines we tell you about the building (did you know it’s older than America?! That it takes 2 weeks to clean the glass ceiling!) before setting you up on your treasure hunt. Depending on what you order (Premium or Classic) we’ll either meet you at the end for score tallying or leave you with an answer sheet in a sealed envelope.

• A hunt pack includes your treasure hunt, a scribe’s sheet, the navigator’s map • A fun briefing at the start with tips and strategies. • A meet-up at the end for results, bragging rights, and a little prize! Please note we meet within the Great Court (at the Knidos Lion) so book your (free) BM entry for 20 minutes prior to meeting time. We need a 6-person minimum for a public hunt to take place and have a maximum of 30 people (divided in teams of about 4 people).

Yes! We've accommodated corporates and birthday parties with our Culture Quizzes, either at your premises or within our own Grade II listed list of Victorian Pubs. See more on our Culture Quiz page.

• Public hunts: are non-refundable, but rescheduling is possible depending on availability. • Private hunts: Refundable with 72 hours’ notice. Rescheduling is possible based on availability. No-shows or late arrivals are non-refundable.

• NO touching anything within the museum (or any museum, the oils of our hands ruin ancient treasures). • Dress comfortably and wear shoes suited for walking. • Photography is allowed in the museum, but with no flash. • Navigating the crowds is part of your mission, but be mindful not to bump into anyone! • Culture Quest operates independently of the British Museum. If a gallery’s closed, it’s HQ’s doing—not ours. Skip the clue and stay on mission!

Rule 1 Museum Manners (🚫📸) No running. No shouting. No jumping. No flash photography. Absolutely no, No, NO touching anything. Ever. Stay together at all times — our operatives are watching 👀 Rule 2 Countdown Protocol (⏰) Return to base (X on maps) at your assigned time. · Lose 5 points per minute if late. · More than 10 minutes? You’re eliminated. Ousted. Expelled. Poof! BUT! If you’re near CQ Clue of 100 points, you may want to risk it... make your call, Agent. Rule 3 Squad Code (✒️) Keep all photos on one device, all scores on one scribe sheet. No help from guards. No Googling. No AI. And absolutely no phoning Uncle Ernie the Egyptologist.

RULES: Photo your team in front of as many pieces of treasure as possible within the given amount of time (typically 90 mins to 2 hrs).

Apple’s Vision is about enriching people’s lives through innovative products and experiences. Which of these product launches best demonstrates that Vision?
