MYSTERY TOUR IDEAS
BREAKDOWN MYSTERY TOUR
(DCL0806) ~ Available Monday - Friday from May through October. This is a great Mystery Tour idea designed to get the passengers "upset" with the Group Leader and Great Day! Tours . . . but we both get the last laugh! Don’t tell your group but we have arranged for the Driver to "fake the breakdown". The coach will be stopped in the "middle of nowhere" when Farmer Bill with an empty wagon will "just happen" to pass by. Our local guide will convince the farmer to take your group, on his custom-made wagon complete with stairs and guard rails, to the next stop while the Driver tries to figure out what is wrong with the bus. Although the group will not necessarily be happy leaving the bus, the frowns turn into laughter when you explain that the joke is on them. Package includes a local guide, chicken BBQ lunch, winery tour and tasting, stop at a produce stand, a stop to buy homemade cookies (for only $1.00 per bag), a candy factory tour and a hand-dipped ice cream sucker.DOUBLE TROUBLE MURDER MYSTERY
