Murder Mystery Tour Sintra
Nestled among Sintra's fairytale hills, a CityHunters Murder Mystery Tour awaits to turn colleagues into sleuths. This team building experience lets groups explore the town from a fresh angle, solving clever puzzles and tracking down a mysterious crime while soaking up the charm that makes Sintra unforgettable.
An adventure in the streets of Sintra
The investigation can kick off at the Sintra National Palace, though the route can be adjusted to begin elsewhere in the historic centre. Armed with the CityHunters app, smartphones become powerful investigative tools. The mission winds through narrow lanes and sunlit squares, guiding teams past landmarks such as Pena Palace, Quinta da Regaleira, Castle of the Moors and Seteais Palace, with stops that might include the Sintra Natural History Museum or Casa do Cipreste depending on the chosen route.
Puzzles and team spirit in a picturesque setting
This Murder Mystery Tour is far more than a scenic stroll. It challenges teams to collaborate on brainteasers, decode secret messages and tackle hands-on tasks scattered across Sintra. Each solved clue brings the group closer to the culprit, making the experience a lively choice for a company outing or as part of a company summer party where fun and cooperation take centre stage.
