Step back in time and discover an intriguing murder mystery that takes you from the impeccably restored carriages of the British Pullman to the splendours of Brighton's Pavilion.
The year is 1933 and you have stepped back in time aboard the British Pullman carriages of the Venice Simplon-Orient-Express. Intrigue is in the air as you anticipate your visit to Brighton and the jewel in Brighton’s crown the Royal Pavilion.
During the journey you will meet all the suspicious characters embroiled in a dastardly plot. What is going on? It’s a mystery.
Brunch with Bucks Fizz will be served on your outward journey. On arrival at Hove you will be greeted by guides who will escort you to your coach for the ride to the Royal Pavilion. As you marvel at its splendours you will have the opportunity to exercise your mind on what you think you have discovered so far. Something is afoot in the
Music Room and the future of the world could well be at stake. Someone is up to no good so keep your eye peeled and don’t miss a trick.
Your coach returns you to Hove Station to reboard the British Pullman. But it's not all over yet. During your four-course meal served on the return journey you are invited to solve the mystery.
