10 Experiences to Celebrate Summer with Your Team

Summer has arrived — why not make the most of it with your team?

Whether you’re an in-person team in New York or San Francisco and looking to get together IRL, or a virtual team looking for a summer-themed activity, we’ve compiled a shortlist of a few favorites. 

New York Experiences

Connect Outdoors in the Hamptons

Get out of the city for a whole-day facilitated experience, designed for team connection. Think kayaking, a chef-made 3-course meal under the stars, wine and artisanal cocktails, all combined with journaling exercises and circles to share and grow as a team.

Picnic in the Park

Venture to the middle of sunny Central Park with your team. Hosted by the Perfect Picnic, feast on locally-sourced snacks while you lounge on cozy blankets and pillows. 

Adventure in the Treetops

Go up high in the trees with Boundless Adventures, an aerial park with 110 obstacles and 23 ziplines. Just a short drive from the city, yet this experience feels like another world.

Take in Skyline Views

Your team might’ve seen NY, but have they seen it from the water? Head out to the Hudson River for a quick paddle lesson then hour-long guided trip that features some seriously spectacular views.

San Francisco Experiences

Paddleboard in the City

At Crane Cove Park, get outdoorsy with your team without leaving SF. At Dogpatch Paddle, take in a quick technique lesson before exploring the protected cove and central waterfront. 

Safari in a Wildlife Preserve

Wildebeest, rhinos, and more. At Safari West, your team will be guided through a private safari in the 400-acre reserve — spot the incredible species while learning about their ancestral homelands and the problems they face today.

Catch Some Crabs

Ever wanted to try crabbing? Bond with your team in a unique way in a guided experience from Alex Goffo, who’s been crab fishing for over a decade. Meet at Torpedo Wharf in the Presidio to learn about how to catch, clean, and cook crab before testing your skills.

Virtual Experiences

Travel Through Ice Cream

Take your tastebuds on an international ice cream tour with Marco Sweets & Spices. Try out unique flavors like Thai Coco-Lime or Moroccan Honey Mint in this virtual experience, with a case of ice cream delivered to your team’s doorstep.
