River Fox Train: Murder Mystery Train + Alive After Five Cruise

For a full evening of thrills, laughs, and waterfront vibes, the River Fox Train: Murder Mystery Train + Alive After Five Cruise package delivers the ultimate Sacramento experience. This exciting combo invites you to step into a live theatrical mystery on the rails and then unwind with cocktails and a sunset cruise on the Sacramento River. It’s the perfect pairing for couples, friend groups, or anyone looking to celebrate in unforgettable style.
Start your evening aboard the Murder Mystery Train, a 2.5-hour dinner experience packed with suspense and interactive entertainment. You’ll board a vintage railcar in West Sacramento where the mystery begins to unfold. A cast of eccentric characters draws you into the story, revealing twists, turns, and red herrings as the train rolls through Yolo County. Each month features a new storyline—costumes welcome!—so no two experiences are ever the same.
As you sleuth your way through dinner and dessert, you’ll enjoy a full-course meal served at your pre-arranged table. Non-alcoholic beverages are included, and beer, wine, and cocktails are available for purchase. Whether you solve the case or not, you’re in for a night of theatrical fun with a scenic backdrop.
Then, head to downtown Sacramento for the Alive After Five Cruise. This lively 90-minute river cruise features a live DJ, full bar, and unbeatable views of the city skyline. Board at the L Street Dock and set sail beneath the Tower Bridge as the sun sets. Dance, sip, or simply relax as you cruise along the Sacramento River surrounded by music and city lights.
By bundling these two experiences, you create a well-paced, value-packed evening that transitions seamlessly from mystery to celebration. With enough time between activities to travel and freshen up, the itinerary is both convenient and exciting. Both experiences offer free or nearby parking and are located just a short drive apart.
Whether you’re celebrating a birthday, hosting a bachelorette night, or just looking for a memorable night out, this Sacramento combo brings the drama, flavor, and fun. Book together and save—your unforgettable evening awaits.
