Overview
This is a great way to see some of the most famous sights in central London as you and your friends join forces to solve a fiendish murder mystery.
It’s 1968 and you’ve just received a mysterious envelope. Inside are all the clues you’ll need to discover the person or persons responsible for the heinous murder of a young woman at Duck Island Cottage in St James’s Park.
It’s here that your investigation begins, in front of this quaint 19th-century cottage at the east end of the park’s lake, a little piece of the English countryside in the heart of London. St James’s Park is surrounded by major attractions including Buckingham Palace, The Mall and Horse Guards Parade, some of which may hold further clues for you to discover.
Your investigation will take you to Parliament Square, where you’ll see grand, gothic Westminster Abbey, the Houses of Parliament and Big Ben, as well as several imposing statues of world leaders including Churchill, Lincoln and Mandela.
Weave your way along Whitehall – home of the British Prime Minister’s official London residence at Number 10 Downing Street, and onwards to Great Scotland Yard, where you must solve the crime and reveal the killer.
This is a private, self-guided tour for you and your friends, so you’re free to go as quickly or as slowly as you like. We recommend spending some time taking in the beautiful surroundings of St James’ Park and its exquisite lake that’s home to pelicans, parakeets and other delightful birdlife.
