An exciting adventure awaits

With no rigid start times or outside supervision, the experience is easy to fit into a busy schedule, making it a smart choice for companies that want a high-quality, low-hassle team building event.
Along the way, teams will encounter many of Bologna’s highlights: the Fountain of Neptune, the imposing San Petronio Basilica, and the long arcades of the Porticoes of Bologna. Art lovers can detour to the Pinacoteca Nazionale di Bologna, while the skyline is punctuated by the Asinelli tower. Other stops might include the Bologna Cathedral, the Basilica of San Domenico, Teatro Comunale, and the peaceful Santo Stefano Church, each offering atmosphere and clues in equal measure.
Experience teamwork in a new way
The Murder Mystery Tour in Bologna is more than just a Scavenger Hunt. It is an interactive challenge designed to sharpen communication, collaboration, and strategic thinking. Every participant can contribute a different strength—analytical thinking, creative problem solving, or an eye for detail—as the team tackles tricky puzzles, deciphers coded messages, and completes interactive tasks. Each solved clue pulls the group closer to the culprit and highlights the value of trust and coordinated effort, skills that translate directly back to the workplace.
A company outing to Bologna becomes genuinely memorable with the Murder Mystery Tour, creating shared moments that bond teams and spark new dynamics. Whether arranged as a standalone company outing, part of a departmental celebration, or as activity during a company summer party, the format adapts to many occasions.

Organizers choose when and where the team building event kicks off, whether from the University of Bologna, Bologna Cathedral, or another central spot. The app’s intuitive setup keeps logistics minimal, letting participants dive straight into the fun and concentrate on teamwork rather than coordination. Minimal prep and no extra on-site staff mean the group can begin exploring almost immediately.
As the route unfolds, the Asinelli tower and other landmarks add visual highlights and local lore to the experience.
