From the creative team of 5-star pub crawls 'Cryptids & Creatures' and 'A Christmas Carol' in Asheville comes the newest tour: 'Watson's SOS! A Sherlockian Pub Crawl in Asheville' - a murder mystery experience set against the backdrop of Asheville's legendary South Slope brewery scene. You're not just along for the ride - Watson needs you! Sherlock has vanished mid-case, the murders haven't stopped, so Dr. Watson is desperately recruiting the sharpest minds he can find. That's where you come in: move bar to bar through some of Asheville's best craft beer destinations, gathering clues, cracking codes, and channeling your inner detective - guided every step of the way by a seasoned, unflappable Watson who keeps the story alive from the first pint to the final reveal. This isn't dinner theater - it's a living, breathing mystery that puts you in the starring role! *Brewery stops are subject to change due to events or availability at individual venues.

Very entertaining

Our tour guide was like a performer in a broadway show. He told stories that were interesting, funny, and always with surprise endings. We stopped at really nice places in South Slope. Everyone had a great time!
