Team Building Activities in London

Round up your most daring detectives and head to 221b for a day of puzzles, clue-solving, and team building. To spark some friendly rivalry, we will split your group into teams of 6 and enter tournament mode at our Sherlock-themed immersive escape experience. You’ll need to work together to beat out the competition and save the day before time runs out. When the game ends, you can head to our secret speakeasy to compare notes and the winners will be awarded a prize, (and bragging rights).

Why is an escape room a great team building activity?

Our escape room is the perfect activity for any groups looking to work on their team building. Players will need to work collaboratively towards a shared goal within a tight timeframe. If you’re looking to improve communication within your team, our experience provides the ideal opportunity for them to identify and resolve problems using logic and critical thinking. It’s also a great environment to help create bonds of trust, as well as make some fun memories.


Why should you choose us for your team away day?

For fans of the hit BBC show Sherlock, the experience includes exclusive content from the original cast members, including Benedict Cumberbatch, Andrew Scott, and Martin Freeman. Players travel through immersive environments from the TV series, solving a series of logic tests and puzzles before time runs out. Haven’t seen an episode of Sherlock? No problem, you don’t need to have any prior knowledge of the show to play.

Meet up together after the game in our secret speakeasy, The Mind Palace, to toast your success, (or commiserate), with one of our food and drink packages. Your dedicated Events Manager will take the stress out of bringing your team building event concept to life so you can enjoy the day.

“My team members and I had a fantastic afternoon cracking codes and taking part in fun activities with the help of Sherlock and co! The immersive experience started at the front door of ‘Doyle’s Opticians’ and continued until we left! Stamford and her team were entertaining and welcoming and ensured that we were fully briefed. Would highly recommend applying to be an Agent, you won’t be disappointed! 😊”

“I visited the Sherlock escape room with 4 of my colleagues as a team building exercise and I am pleased to say we managed to beat the room! No specific knowledge about Sherlock or any topic is required, however Easter eggs and certain clues do mean more to those who are fans of the show. The rooms are spectacular, kitted out with props, artwork and actual video messages from the actors. I highly recommend for any escape room enthusiast/ Sherlock fan / work group.”

"Very cleverly done! Great pre-Christmas team building event which is set up to ensure everyone works together to find the solution."

"This attraction is one of the best team building activities I’ve been to recently. Located right opposite Shepherd’s Bush station, it has events spaces if you want to combine a meeting with the escape room activity and you can also have parties in the evenings. The activity itself is a series of code breaking sequences which lead you to the next phase all with one hour to complete the entire puzzle. Sherlock, Moriarty and Mycroft chip in along the way and it’s huge amounts of fun. Highly recommended."

"We sent 48 of our team to The Sherlock Experience as a treat and the it was enjoyed by all. The booking experience was smooth and efficient with the help from Ben, the day ran like clockwork apart from a technical fault which meant some groups were held up around 20 mins (the staff were great at keeping everyone entertained) and the experience itself was like none other. The props, clues and sheer size of the experience impressed all and I would definitely recommend to any other business looking for a team building activity / treat."

"I organized a team day for my colleagues at work - and we had a great time here! We met first in the speakeasy bar for some warm up drinks and then split into two groups/rooms for the challenge. Loved the digital photos we received. All of the staff made our experience one to remember. I would recommend this for other work groups, as well as friends and families."
