Treasure Hunt in the Grand Bazaar

If you want to create a shopping experience to remember, we can organise a shopping competition for your group / client, all with the help of host/hostesses discreetly situated to help when needed. The game starts once teams of six to ten guests get to the main entrance of the Grand Bazaar, with only an hour and a half to complete the game.

As soon as teams arrive at the entrance, hostesses will record each team's starting time. Each team will be given a bag containing maps of the bazaar, an envelope with some Turkish lira and a clue card, some useful phrases in Turkish and the explanation of the game. Their task is to follow the maps and the cryptic clues to find six specific shops within the grand covered bazaar. The cryptic clues will lead the teams to the right shop and then to the right item. On the clue cards it either says 'Buy' or 'Find', and according to this message teams either buy or just locate the item. If teams need to buy the item, then they need to bargain as the less money they spend the more points they gain.

One thing to remember is that the shop assistants are briefed to not speak in English, therefore the teams need to use their phrase guide as much as possible to gain extra points. If the teams complete each given task in each shop within three minutes they receive a bonus question. The correct answer to this question results in extra bonus points. At the end of the game, the teams end up at the Sark Kahvesi where they hand in their bag with the bought items and are awarded a final score related to correct items and speed it took the team to accomplish the requested tasks.

Included in our services are transfers, hostesses, gifts and prizes for winners and English speaking guide/assistant with A/C with comfortable vehicle.
