At the Murder Mystery Dinner Train, we think life’s biggest moments deserve something special, not just another banquet hall or quiet restaurant dinner. Since 1991, guests have joined us on our vintage railcars to relive the golden age of rail travel, with a fun twist of mystery. Whether you’re marking a milestone birthday, a silver anniversary, or planning a unique company event, the Murder Mystery Dinner Train gives you an experience you won’t find anywhere else in Southwest Florida.

The Thrill of the Investigation

When the whistle sounds and the train leaves Colonial Station in Fort Myers, your night of mystery begins. This isn’t a typical theater show. Our live murder mystery plays out in the aisle of your dining car, and it is up to you to discover whodunnit and why..

During your five-course meal, our talented performers weave a web of clues. With each course, you get closer to the truth or maybe fall further into the mystery. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to write down the vital clues, find the killer, and have a chance to be the “Super Sleuth” for the evening.. The sound of the train and the changing views outside set the perfect scene for a classic mystery.
