January Corporate Outings: Unforgettable Team-Building Experiences in NYC

As the new year kicked off, we had the pleasure of hosting a variety of corporate groups on engaging, locally curated tours across New York City. Whether it was exploring world-famous landmarks, indulging in delicious bites, or soaking in the city’s vibrant history, our corporate outings in January provided unforgettable team-building experiences. If you’re looking for unique corporate event ideas, here’s how some companies made the most of their time in NYC with Like A Local Tours.
Midtown Architecture Tour
For 18 team members from Rowe Motor Oil, many of whom were visiting NYC for the first time, we designed an immersive corporate outing that combined history, architecture, and dining. Their journey through Midtown’s iconic skyline included a breathtaking one-hour visit to Top of the Rock, where they marveled at sweeping views of the city. To ensure the tour balanced exploration with relaxation, we included a food stop at Vanderbilt Market, giving the team a taste of NYC’s culinary scene. This NYC company outing proved that corporate tours can be both educational and fun, making it an ideal experience for out-of-town teams.
Boozy Williamsburg Bites Tour
The team from Postman knew that the best way to shake off the winter blues was with a flavorful, boozy adventure in Williamsburg. This NYC group tour took them through the neighborhood’s best food spots, with an exciting stop at George and Jack’s Tap Room for a happy hour experience. As they laughed, bonded, and indulged in local flavors, it was clear that a food tour with drinks was the perfect way to mix business with pleasure. A corporate outing like this is a fantastic way for teams to unwind and create lasting memories outside the office.
Chelsea Market, High Line, and Hudson Yards Tour
Despite the winter chill, a conference group of 40 was eager to explore the city’s most iconic sites. Our bestselling Chelsea Market, High Line, and Hudson Yards NYC group tour offered them a chance to soak in history, indulge in local eats, and enjoy breathtaking views. Three expert guides led the group, ensuring everyone stayed engaged and entertained. Even in the cold, this team-building experience was a warm reminder that NYC has something special to offer corporate groups all year round.
Food Justice in Chelsea & Hudson Yards Tour
Not all corporate outings are just about fun—some focus on making a meaningful impact. A socially conscious group of 12 young professionals joined us for a unique NYC company outing centered around food justice and community engagement. Exploring Chelsea Market, the High Line, and Hudson Yards, they learned about the intersection of food and social impact while enjoying delicious eats. This experience highlighted how corporate outings can blend team bonding with corporate social responsibility.
