THE PAYOFF
Why San Francisco Is Great for Team Building
The practical reasons San Francisco works when you need to get a team together.
-
Easy to Get Everyone There
BART connects downtown directly to the East Bay and the Peninsula, so pulling in teammates from around the Bay Area is simple.
-
Any Season, Indoors or Out
Golden Gate Park and the Presidio when the weather’s clear, and Moscone Center or a downtown hotel when the fog rolls in. Any time of year works.
-
Venues for Any Group Size
A boardroom at the Fairmont, a small gathering at Fort Mason Center, a few thousand people at Moscone Center, and everything in between.
-
Real Landmarks to Build Around
The Golden Gate Bridge, Alcatraz, Coit Tower, and the Painted Ladies give a scavenger hunt or city challenge real landmarks to route a course around.
-
Somewhere to Celebrate After
The Marina is where locals go to eat and socialize, which makes it an easy pick to celebrate once the event wraps.

Pretty much the best you could ask for
The event was easy to organize and easy to get people going on. It gave everyone a chance to work together and be goofy. We got to get outside of the office on a gorgeous day and be active, which was also a definite plus. People also now have stories to share like – hey remember the time you got a piggyback ride from a fireman? Pretty much the best you could ask for. Thanks!
