Team spirit and camaraderie is like love; it is born sporadically, but it has to be nurtured and cherished. How poetic.
But it is a great truth, and the best way to maintain the team and the togetherness is to work on it as you work on any other aspect of a corporation.
We want you to be the best team possible, whether you are in Bilbao for 48 hours or spending three days in the city. So we bring you a list of the most fun activities to enjoy the company and the city of Bilbao.
Fun ideas for team activities in Bilbao
Paintball
If you want to have a great time but also develop coordination and communication in your group, playing paintball should be on your list without fail.
Playing paintball as a team gives you an opportunity like no other to discover the surroundings of the town of Bilbao, where nature takes over and the setting is almost idyllic.
Although there is nothing idyllic about what happens in a game of paintball. There is a lot of teamwork in games where the fastest and most communicative usually win the day. Guaranteed fun in one of the favourite activities of adrenaline lovers.
Nature in Bilbao
Since you are in the surroundings of Bilbao, as well as recommending a walk around the Artxanda viewpoint, which is one of the main attractions in Bilbao, you should also get lost in nature.
Although hiking is a fantastic activity, and even more so in the landscapes of the Villa de Bilbao, that's not what we were thinking of. Rather something more lively, collective and exciting; let's bring out your inner Tarzan.
We are talking about adventure parks in the middle of nature, where team games and individual coordination mark the final result. Laughs are guaranteed, especially if there is a member of the team who is not very fond of heights.
Depending on the place and the company you choose, their facilities will vary depending on their location, although it is common to have zip lines, high rides and jumps of several metres.
Tastings
Setting foot in Bilbao and not trying some of the most traditional dishes of Basque gastronomy is a real sin. So as well as doing a Pintxo route around the city, we have another idea for you and your team.
Depending on where you go, you'll be able to choose between classic wine and cheese tastings, where the different nuances of the products are usually explained as well as how they are made.
The rich Basque gastronomy, with a large number of local products from Bilbao, makes the offer in the world of tastings wider and more varied than in other places. Take advantage and test the affinity and skills of the team in this fantastic activity.
Escape Room
It is true that escape rooms are one of the favourite activities when more than two people get together. It's fun, fast-paced, time flies by and it's very cooperative.
Depending on the theme you choose, you can mix laughter with tension and even fear. You have to do a lot of teamwork and make everyone part of a perfectly coordinated team.
Although there is another type of escape room that we are used to; outdoors. In Bilbao there is an escape room where the only thing you will need is your mobile phone, and with an app, you will move around the city discovering legends and solving mysteries.
It's a fantastic idea to work in a team, in the open air and, what's more, discovering the wonders and monuments of Bilbao.
Where to stay in Bilbao
After so much fun and after touring Bilbao from top to bottom, you need a break. You and the rest of the group. It can't all be laughter, monuments, pintxos and glasses of txikitos.
We bring you the perfect accommodation; Latroupe La Granja. Its location in the centre of Bilbao gives you the possibility to walk to any place in the city in no time at all. If we add to that that it has the best atmosphere in the city, with people from all over the world, what more could you ask for?
We know you are demanding, so yes, you can ask for more things, such as new and well-kept facilities, fantastic common areas and rooms that can accommodate you and your group so that you are never separated for a moment. Now, yes, you can't ask for anything more from the perfect hostel.
