Taster Trails

Short On Time? Try A Taster Trail!

Ever thought of trying a Whodunit Hunt but always short on time or weren’t sure how much you’d enjoy it? Or wondered if you’d be ‘good enough’ to solve a case (which really doesn’t matter)? Then try one of our new taster trails! We’ve specifically designed them to take around 90 minutes to complete with walking routes of less than a mile. We’ll give you help with two clues if you get stuck.

We’ve launched two walking taster trails, our Europa Trail in Belfast and the Newry Taster Trail. There’s still 17-18 clues to solve (rather less than the 30+ clues in our standard length trails in these cities) but you’ll still get to see interesting places, learn about historic sites and notable people from these areas, and discover something new!

We’ve recently launched our first driving taster trails too – the Torr Road Taster Trail which starts at the quaint village of Cushendun and the Harry Ferguson Trail which follows in the footsteps of the famous inventor.

So try one of these taster trails and see if you’d like more of our kind of fun… definitely something different to do, for sure! They are at a bargain price of only £3.99!!

Driving Hunts

driving direcionsIf you have access to a vehicle / motorbike (or are a super cyclist) then try a driving Whodunit Hunt! They all take you to several amazing places, include lovely scenery, and reveal much history. Some are circular routes (i.e. start and end points are nearby) while others are linear. Directions are given along the route, though sometimes you’ll be on the lookout for signs to navigate to a clue.

We have 30 Driving Whodunit Hunts available, with more in the pipeline. Click on a location link of those available for more detail. Map available at the bottom of the page to locate trails in a particular area.

Most clues are suitable for wheelchair users or those with prams as our detectives have determined accessible routes as far as possible. The amount of walking is usually less than on Walking Hunts and spread across several clue stops. Check individual trail pages for full details.

Note: if you live along the clue route of a Whodunit Hunt you fancy trying but it’s inconvenient to drive to the start, simply begin with the clue that is closest to you and, once you get to the end, drive to the start and solve the rest of the clues!

On Driving Whodunit Hunts, the majority of clues aren’t far from where you park, so an accompanying dog could be left in the car if you wish. Very occasionally, several clues are at one stop and in such cases it is best to take your pet with you – maybe your dog can help sniff out one or two clues! 🙂

See the map below for available Whodunit Hunts, with driving murder mysteries indicated by a purple car symbol. Those coloured orange are for future launch – if you’re interested in hearing about them, please contact us and we’ll email you when they’re available.

Use the card or Paypal link in the page of whichever Whodunit Hunt you are interested in to purchase it.
