When it comes to planning a corporate away day, finding an activity that everyone will genuinely enjoy can be a challenge. The best experiences bring colleagues together, encourage collaboration and leave people with something to talk about long after the day has finished.
If you’re looking for a team building activity in North Wales that’s a little different, Finding Alice transforms the streets of Llandudno into a giant interactive adventure inspired by Alice in Wonderland. Combining puzzle-solving, exploration and friendly competition, it’s a memorable experience for businesses of all sizes.
Why do companies organise team building days?
Corporate team building is about far more than simply getting employees away from their desks.
Businesses invest in team building activities to strengthen working relationships, welcome new employees, reward staff, celebrate achievements and improve communication between departments. Whether you’re a small business looking to treat your team or a larger organisation planning an annual away day, the aim is usually the same: to create shared experiences that help colleagues connect outside the workplace.
The strongest teams aren’t always built in meeting rooms. They’re built through shared challenges, conversations and moments of success that people experience together.
What makes a great team building activity?
Not every team building activity achieves those goals.
The most successful experiences don’t feel forced or awkward. Instead, they naturally encourage people to work together without putting anyone on the spot.
A great corporate activity should:
- Encourage communication and teamwork.
- Allow different personalities to contribute in different ways.
- Be inclusive for a wide range of ages and abilities.
- Create memorable moments and plenty of laughter.
- Give colleagues something to talk about long after the day is over.
Perhaps most importantly, it should feel like a genuine experience rather than a workplace exercise.
Why Finding Alice is different
Finding Alice has been designed around teamwork.
Rather than sitting in a room completing exercises, your colleagues become part of an unfolding adventure across the streets of Llandudno. Working together, teams solve puzzles, uncover clues and make discoveries as the story unfolds.
Everyone brings something different to the experience. Some people quickly spot hidden details, others enjoy solving riddles, while some naturally take the lead in navigating or piecing the story together. Every contribution helps the team progress.
For businesses looking to add an extra layer of excitement, split your group into multiple teams and compete head-to-head, earning points as you complete challenges throughout the experience. At the end, compare scores to discover who has claimed the top spot on the leaderboard. It adds just the right amount of friendly competition while encouraging collaboration within each team.

More than just a team building exercise
One of the biggest advantages of Finding Alice is that it gets people out of the office.
Instead of spending another afternoon in a conference room, your team will explore one of North Wales’ most popular seaside towns, discovering hidden corners, famous landmarks and local businesses along the way.
Many companies choose to combine the adventure with lunch, dinner or drinks afterwards, creating a relaxed and enjoyable day out rather than a standalone activity.
Because the experience is self-guided, there’s no need for lengthy presentations or scheduled icebreakers. Teams simply arrive, begin their adventure and enjoy the experience at their own pace.
So, what is Finding Alice?
Finding Alice is a self-guided outdoor adventure inspired by the story of Alice in Wonderland and the real-life connection between Alice Liddell and Llandudno.
Using your smartphone, your team will step into a story, follows a trail of clues, solves interactive puzzles, completes challenges and encounters a cast of memorable characters as the story unfolds around you.
The adventure typically lasts between 2 and 3 hours, making it ideal as the centrepiece of a corporate away day or as part of a wider visit to North Wales.
Suitable for small businesses, larger organisations and visiting conference groups, Finding Alice offers a refreshing alternative to traditional team building activities.
