All aboard for an immersive murder mystery adventure filled with intrigue, great food, and even better wine! As the seasons change, drama and enigmas continue to brew thanks to the Murder Mystery Company and their immersive experiences. Embark on one of five thrilling rides through the picturesque Napa Valley with your friends and uncover the secret identities of the perpetrators on these unique train ride experiences.

Hot On The Rail

Offered on selected dinner trains, each of these thrilling rides includes the experience of the murder mystery dinner theatre throughout a two-hour journey aboard our beautifully decorated vintage trains. The Murder Mystery Train Experience also features a multiple-course gourmet meal which changes depending on seasonally available ingredients. Guests of the Murder Mystery Train are highly encouraged to participate in the experience by dressing up based on their ride experience and engaging with the storyline. Make sure to bring your detective skills to search for a killer or practice your poker face so you can hide your identity from your fellow dinner guests.

 

Hidden in Train Sight

Intrigue and conspiracies abound throughout all of the immersive Murder Mystery experiences. Travel through time to the roaring 20s while trying to decipher the killer in Death of a Gangster. You can also become a piece of the puzzle in a mysterious crime of passion by attending a deadly wedding in the Til Death Do Us Part experience. Play a part in the 50s rockabilly era by Dancing With Death or attend a peculiar Midnight Masquerade where anything can happen.
Each Murder Mystery Company experience will feature highly trained improv actors to set the scene. You and your fellow dinner guests will have two hours to solve, so come prepared for spying. Allow yourself to be fully involved in the action as you travel through beautiful wine country for an unforgettable and mysterious evening that you’ll never forget.

With pandemic measures being top of mind, the Napa Valley Wine Train will ensure that all actors wear clear mask shields and maintain six feet from guests, while also sanitizing all materials used in the program.
