Client stories
What our clients say
“Even before the event, they were very responsive and always came back to us with helpful ideas and solutions. Despite being a large group, they managed to keep everyone engaged… We started with a SUP relay race, where the staff first taught everyone how to use the boards… I would highly recommend [Salty Soil] to any large group looking to have fun and strengthen teamwork.”
“We had a fantastic experience with [Salty Soil] in Thessaloniki for a team building night out. The tour was the perfect mix of local culture and authentic flavors. We loved the small stops for tsipouro, delicious local cheeses, and the traditional tavern experience.”
“I was planning a team event, and Akis helped me plan every detail. The boat experience was amazing, everyone extremely friendly — a good core memory created with them!”
Frequently asked questions
How do we choose the right team building activity for our group?
The best option depends on your group size, goals, available time, location, and the tone you want for the event. Some teams prefer playful competition, others want something more relaxed or strategy-based. Most of our activities, like treasure hunts, challenges and CSR builds, can be shaped around your theme, brand or goals. Our AR escape games are the exception: they run on ready-made scenarios, so they're less customisable. Get in touch, and we will help you find the format that fits best.
Do you offer CSR or charity team building?
Yes, with our CSR Charity-Build. Teams learn who the beneficiary is, such as a children's home or a local charity, then build real items like kids' bikes, wheelchairs or food boxes, often against the clock or through challenge stages that earn parts. They decorate the items and write cards to the recipients, and the charity attends or receives them at a handover that we photograph and film. Your company gets a team building event and a CSR or ESG story at the same time, with content for reports and social channels. It suits all ages and fitness levels, indoors or outdoors. Pricing is a per-person fee plus the cost of the donated items, which your company funds.
Can you organise activities at our own venue or company location?
Yes. Although we are based in Thessaloniki, we can bring our activities and equipment directly to your venue or company location anywhere in Greece.
Are your team building activities suitable for large groups?
Yes. We run events for small teams as well as large groups with hundreds of participants. Every event is designed around the group size.
What is the minimum and maximum group size?
Our team building activities usually run for groups of around 10 people or more. There is no fixed upper limit: larger companies are split into parallel teams, and we have run programmes for several hundred participants. If your group is smaller than 10, get in touch anyway and we will tell you what works.
What information do you need from us before suggesting a team building activity?
It helps to know the number of participants, preferred date, location, available time, and the kind of experience you are looking for: competitive, relaxed, outdoor, indoor, or a mix. Tell us how much you want us to handle too. We can arrange everything, including venue, catering, transport and equipment, or work within arrangements you have already made, such as your own offices or a hotel you have booked.
Can you customise a team building event for our company?
Yes. Every event we organise is custom-made. We design the format, activities and schedule around your group's needs, goals and preferences.
Do you offer only competitive activities, or also lighter and more relaxed formats?
We offer a wide range, from AR escape games and treasure hunts to wine tasting, icebreakers and giant games. The tone can be adjusted to suit your group, whether you want high-energy competition or something more social and relaxed.
How long does a team building activity last?
Most activities run for about 1.5 hours. Several can be combined into a half-day or full-day programme, and we often pair an activity with a meal or a city walk when a company wants to fill a longer slot.
Are your activities insured, and how do you handle safety?
Yes. Salty Soil is a licensed travel agency (GNTO licence 0933E60000837301) and holds third-party liability insurance that covers our activities. Our own team brings and checks all equipment and runs every activity on the day.
