Team building is a key element in strengthening team cohesion, improving communication and boosting employee motivation. Inspired by the television show Koh Lanta, the Tribal Quest concept offers an immersive activity that provides participants with a unique and unforgettable experience during their seminars.
Our tribal quest concept: an original team-building idea in the spirit of koh lanta
The Tribal Quest concept reproduces the fascinating universe of the TV show Koh Lanta to offer an interactive and engaging experience. Participants are divided into tribes and face a variety of challenges to accumulate points. These varied challenges are designed to test and strengthen the abilities of each individual and the team as a whole.
Tribal Quest activities include:
- Physical challenges: obstacle course, tug-of-war
- Mental challenges: riddles, puzzles
- Strategic challenges: alliances and negotiation
Among the most popular events are orienteering, riddle solving, obstacle courses and even insect tasting for the more daring. This variety of activities encourages communication, collaboration, stress management and team cohesion.
The Tribal Quest experience encourages participants to step out of their comfort zone and go beyond their limits, creating camaraderie and a sense of belonging to the group. It’s also an excellent opportunity to discover colleagues in a different light, create shared memories and integrate new members more easily.
Tribal quest challenge: an original team-building challenge for your seminars
The Tribal Quest Challenge is perfectly suited to seminars and corporate events. By offering intense and stimulating activities, this concept provides a tailor-made team-building experience, meeting the specific needs of each team.
Activities can include :
- Sack races
- Relay races
- Raft building
- Olfactory challenges
Sessions are usually held outdoors and can last from two to three hours, with up to 500 participants. To ensure the event’s success, we recommend choosing low-activity periods, preferring Wednesdays or Thursdays, and involving employees in the choice of dates and activities.
In addition to the Tribal Quest Challenge, other team-building activities include escape games, olympiads, casino entertainment, cardboard car building and many other collective challenges. These events also offer opportunities to improve communication, planning and problem-solving skills, while boosting staff morale.
The survival seminar: a fun activity perfect for group cohesion
Time on Target’s survival seminars are another exciting option for improving team cohesion. These immersive seminars immerse participants in nature and teach them essential survival techniques.
Here’s what survival courses can include:
- Fire techniques
- Orientation
- Water search
- Identification of edible plants
These activities enable employees to work together outside their usual working environment, strengthening bonds and creating lasting memories. Survival seminars are particularly appreciated for their ability to bring out participants’ hidden skills and reveal their capacity to handle unforeseen situations.
Locations for these activities can be customized to suit the company’s needs. Popular locations for Koh Lanta-inspired team building include Paris, Orleans and Toulouse, as well as natural sites such as the Domaine du Lac in Deauville or the beaches of Brittany.
