A Killer Evening Awaits…

Seasonal Murder Mystery Food tour

eat, drink, and uncover the clues on a guided murder mystery food tour!

Someone’s been murdered, and it’s up to you to solve the case (or perhaps confess your crime)! Join our immersive Murder Mystery Food Tour for an unforgettable night of intrigue, food, and fun. As you stroll to three local restaurants, you’ll gather clues with each “round” of delicious food and drinks.

At the start of the tour, you’ll be given a role—so prepare to get into character! We strongly encourage you to dress in theme, and bring your sleuthing skills – everyone has secrets to hide, and no one is above suspicion.

Ready to crack the case? Put on your detective hat (or maybe your Derby hat), dig into some fantastic local food, and let’s see if you’ve got what it takes to unmask the culprit! Each season, the theme of our Louisville whodunnit changes – so you can hone your murder mystery solving skills again and again.

Murder Under the Mistletoe

November – December

Snow Falls’ Holiday Sweater Cocktail Crawl is the event of the season in the Snowhio River Valley! Each year, the city’s most festive souls gather in their flashiest, tackiest sweaters to sip bourbon cocktails, savor local bites, and revel in the spirit of the season. But this year, rumors are swirling along with the bourbon.

Whispers of revenge, blackmail, and scandal are heating up faster than a smoked (c)old fashioned, leaving everyone wondering if someone’s holiday cheer might just be a cover for something sinister.

Tonight, you’re a star character in the evening’s Murder Mystery – or even the perpetrator! While sparkling lights and historic charm immerse you in holiday cheer, the mystery unfolds as your character is revealed and swirling clues unravel the night’s secrets.

Dress up in your most extravagant ugly sweater, prepare to immerse yourself in your given character, and get ready to dig deep into a case of holiday chaos and bourbon-fueled intrigue.

An Interactive Louisville Whodunnit

FAQ’s About This Tour

Take a look at the Frequently Asked Questions about the Murder Mystery Food tour:

You’ll be eating a full meal consisting of an appetizer portion, entree portion, and dessert, plus 4 half cocktails. You may still have room for dinner before or after your tour – and we’ll be leaving you at a fantastic place to continue your evening.

Yes! You will enjoy delicious non-alcoholic mocktails paired with yummy food, hilarious game play and crime solving.

We designed this tour to have very little walking, and you’ll end about a 2 minute walk from where the tour begins.

This murder mystery whodunnit includes both a full dinner and drinks at some of the best bars and restaurants in Louisville, plus 3 hours of interactive fun.

Our tour pricing for all tours is based on an operating margin that fairly compensates our hard working tour guides, pays full menu price for our local restaurant partners, and includes a 20% gratuity for the staff at each of the bars and restaurants we visit.

We recommend wearing themed attire that matches the evening’s vibe. The more silly, over-the-top, or even tacky, the better! Feeling a little silly and overdressed will help you ease into the character you’ll be playing throughout the evening. (Of course, we want you to be comfortable, too!)

While we have a few core partners we typically stop at, each experience and tour is a little different and the stops do vary based on availability, restaurant hours, and other circumstances beyond our control. That said, each stop on our tour is a standout partner, offering world-class food or drinks and a unique experience that adds essential character and depth to our tour theme.

Your ticket includes food and drink at 3 stops, a guide/host for the evening’s experience, and all materials for the murder mystery game.

Participation in solving the mystery is encouraged, mostly because it’s a lot of fun, but actual crime-solving skills are not necessary to enjoy yourself. Even if you’re not the solving type, just participating is plenty of fun even without “winning” the game or solving the crime!

Unlike traditional murder mystery dinner theatre, there are no actors. You, and your fellow tour guests, will be assigned roles by your Master of Mystery guide and host, and tasked with unfolding this mystery in an immersive experience (think roleplaying game meets food tour). Also, each evening will unfold a little differently – so feel free to join us again and again!
