The Munch Around Union Market Scavenger Hunt
For those who hunger for adventure…
…this is the food tour you’ve been looking for! Explore one of the District’s most dynamic neighborhoods on a scavenger hunt full of snacks and surprises (that doubles as team building in DC). Inside Union Market, you’ll explore and sample a variety of vendors and foods. Outside, you’ll investigate dazzling street art, and interesting new businesses, and fascinating hidden facts.
Along the way you might find:
- spare ribs that make you dance
- steps that sing to you
- sandwiches longer than the average American male is tall
- exotic imports from across the pond
- a hidden bread shop that will make you scream
- papusas and arepas at La Cosecha
- secret messages from the neighborhood’s past
The challenge’s historic highlights are similar to what you’ll find on the Union Market Mania Scavenger Hunt—from Mr. Brainwash street art to a recording studio fit for the Byrds.
You’ll also take photos of your team enjoying or presenting snacks available from a variety of vendors and stores.

The Murder Mystery Mayhem Scavenger Hunt
Beware: there’s a killer in your midst
Someone playing this game with you is a bit of a Jekyll and Hyde. His or her good side knows nothing about the evil side—and the evil side has challenged you to prevent your own murder. Everyone in your group has been poisoned, and the clock is ticking down on your time left to live. To reveal the killer’s identity, you’ll have to complete a series of photo challenges, solve interlocking puzzles, decipher coded text messages, and more. If you succeed, you get the antidote. If you fail…well, you know.
If you love escape-room games, you’ll love this murder mystery scavenger hunt. But even better, you won’t be locked in a room for an hour: this game can be played almost anywhere.
An in-person murder mystery for any location!
We have a variety of versions, depending on where you want to play. Such as…
- A city, town, or neighborhood
- A science or history museum
- A zoo or aquarium
- An office building
- A school or campus
