Murder Mystery Tour Utrecht
An exciting adventure awaits teams in the heart of Utrecht, where participants slip into the role of investigators to crack a thrilling case. The CityHunters Murder Mystery Tour is the ideal chance for an unforgettable team building event in Utrecht, putting cooperation front and center as colleagues explore the city’s historic streets. Let Utrecht’s distinct atmosphere pull everyone in and create a team building experience that will be remembered long after the final clue is found.
Starting point of the investigation
The investigation kicks off at the imposing St. Martin's Cathedral, one of Utrecht’s most recognisable landmarks. The starting location can be changed to any other spot in the city centre on request. As the group navigates the lanes, the CityHunters app guides teams to different scenes where clever puzzles and gathered clues move the story forward. This turns exploring Utrecht into a purposeful mission, with everyone working together toward a single objective.
Utrecht is a superb setting for a team building experience, boasting a rich past and plenty of sights to admire while taking the case outdoors. Be inspired by the gothic lines of St Catherine's Cathedral, stroll past the remnants of Traiectum that speak of Roman days, or peek inside Museum Speelklok and the Utrecht Observatory for a dash of the unexpected. At every corner there is something new to spark curiosity and strengthen team bonds.
An interactive experience for the team
The CityHunters Murder Mystery Tour is far more than a regular Scavenger Hunt. It is an interactive adventure that blends modern team building experiences with digital tools. The app on smartphones becomes the investigative toolkit, helping teams analyse evidence and spot suspects. Multimedia elements such as photos, video clips and audio recordings add pace and variety to the experience.
Solving the case requires logical thinking, creativity and clear communication. Every team member can contribute unique strengths—strategic planning, inventive problem solving or a knack for noticing small details. This mix of skills makes the Murder Mystery Tour a valuable team building event in Utrecht that enhances collaboration and elevates team spirit.
Utrecht: the perfect backdrop for a company outing
With its charming old town and picturesque canals, Utrecht offers a flawless backdrop for a company outing. While wandering the streets and tackling puzzles at the various stations, teams gain a fresh perspective on the city. The relaxed vibe and wealth of attractions also make Utrecht a popular choice for a company summer party or an informal department celebration.
Don’t miss the Centraal Museum while continuing the investigation. Even though the Murder Mystery Tour takes place outdoors, participants can still admire striking architecture and Utrecht’s cultural variety, perhaps spotting the Museum Catharijneconvent, Het Spoorwegmuseum or St. Willibrord's Church along the route. After a successful day of clues and discoveries, teams can unwind in one of the cosy cafés and sample Utrecht’s culinary offerings.
