About this tour
Take on a lively outdoor investigation in historic Old Town with this San Diego Murder Mystery Scavenger Hunt. Work with your team to follow logic-based clues, piece together the evidence, and reveal the murderer as you explore the neighborhood on foot.
This hosted event is more than a phone-app tour: teams conduct separate investigations while competing across the area. The team that solves the case fastest and needs the least help from headquarters wins. Game materials are provided, and the experience lasts about four hours. Plan to walk approximately 2 miles; a moderate level of physical fitness is recommended. The activity is wheelchair accessible, and public transportation is available nearby.
Gather your crew and put your powers of observation to work on a San Diego Murder Mystery Scavenger Hunt through Old Town. Book your spot and see whether your team can crack the case first.

How this score is calculated
This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 5.00 from 5 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.
How the score works and rating distribution in San Diego
- Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
- Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
- Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
- The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 7.4. Top 31% in San Diego means it ranks in the top 31% of tours in San Diego by this score.
