Crime Scene Investigation Experience for Two
Overview
Immerse yourselves in some realistic Crime Scene Investigation on a half day hosted by forensic experts, and get to grips with the forensic basics of the ‘crime of the day’ as you work through the evidence to catch the criminal.
The experts include CSIs, forensic scientists, crash investigators, senior investigating officers and major crime detectives, so you’ll be surrounded by the best from the start as you don your forensic suits. Whether it’s murder, kidnap, or arson, it’ll be an authentic scene that you’ll be delving into as you develop and lift fingerprints, cast and lift footwear marks electronically, analyse blood spatter, identify and match hair and fibres, interview witnesses/suspects and compile some e-fits too.
You’ll use real techniques throughout to examine evidence. Whether you catch your villain or not, you’re both sure of an intriguing day that’ll give you an amazing insight into the world of CSI.

SO MUCH ADRENALINE! SUPER FUN!
I received the voucher as a gift, I wasnt sure what to expect from this. It was the best day ever, led by real forensic crime scene investigator. We learnt a lot before actually starting, we had a go at looking at fingerprints in detail, taking shoe prints ect. The crime scene itself was so fun, it was all a big mystery, and the puzzle come together at the end once the team got together and told eachother what we've all discovered. I had so much adrenaline, it felt quite real. 10/10 reccomend.

Amazing Experience
Thoroughly enjoyed the CSI day for two! If anything, I was gutted that it didn't go on for longer. I would happily have paid more to have done a different room alongside my crime scene room etc. Lovely staff. Learnt lots. Have recommended to everybody in my life ha!

Really enjoyable day
Really interesting day with my 16 year old niece who’s interested in a career as a detective. The time flew by and we learned a lot and got to practice finger print taking and other techniques using our own provided kit, before taking on our own crime scene as part of a joint effort. Realistic enough to give us a taste of it, and my niece left saying it had made up her mind about following that career path. A very different and enjoyable day. Very grateful to the team, who were all great.

Great Fun & Very Interesting
Booked this for my husband as he’s a big CSI fan, we both loved it. The staff were very knowledgeable and very likeable. You get to investigate your own crime scene and solve a crime. There was always someone on hand if you were in need of assistance and they didn’t make you feel awkward for asking. Great fun.

CSI - completely super, innit (sorry!)
Had a really interesting and informative afternoon. The staff are all brilliantly qualified with complete knowledge of the subject. Learned some basic techniques before being let loose on our own area of a wider crime scene. Felt totally safe from a COVID point of view. Would definitely recommend.

Brilliant Day for Big CSI Fan
Visited with my daughter and we both had a great day. As a 51yr old who would have liked to work in CSI in another life, this was a superb day gaining an insight into what goes on during investigations. The day was informative, interesting and fun. I could have spent a whole day there learning more, rather than just the 3hrs! Would definitely recommend.

We had a very interesting and fun time playing the role of crime scene investigators based on real crimes. It was a real eye opener as to how many people might be needed at a crime scene and the differing roles they all play in solving a crime. I would definitely do it again!

It would be criminal not to...
Received this as a gift. Great gift! I didn't know what to expect, but the experience was so hands on and interesting. With the people leading the experience working in the field, they had so much knowledge and experience to share. The course itself teaches fingerprint lifting, shoe print lifting and takes you in a scenario in small groups to take on the role of CSI. Entertaining, professional, highly recommended, shocking.. Loved it! Think my sisters will be booking themselves on next time.

Think Forensic or die
The start was very subdued as we watched simple crime riddles. Our leaders Lisha and Sue were warm and serious at the same time. Using real stories was interesting but thought provoking. Getting the gear on and holding our resource box helped us to get in role. Our group got into the detail, perhaps at the expense of an overview. We tried to share our findings and listen to the other groups. Back in the main room, we found out who done it. A good experience.

CSI Yorkshire-style!
This was absolutely fascinating - delivered with great enthusiasm and passion by a retired policewoman and a forensic scientist. Three hours flew by, packed full of interest and real-life crimes and anecdotes to really bring things alive (apart from the dead body). These people are experts in their field and keen to impart as much as possible in the short time we had. First half is lecture style where you learn so much about what happens at a crime scene - then it’s over to you.....

Crime Scene Investigation
Very good. It was a really interesting afternoon seeing how a crime is dealt with by the police. Putting on the white suits and doing things like taking fingerprints and sole of shoe prints made you feel part of an investigation. It was run very well as ex police and current police are part of the team. If you are interested in crime and what goes into solving one then this is for you.

A little taste of CSI
Great gift if you are interested in the experience, and the staff are very helpful. Working in a group to investigate the scenario given, in a real life set, along with the kit and guidance to take finger prints, foot prints and samples of blood, fibres and evidence. The photography of the scene and documentation of evidence. We only played at it but the real thing must be so precise and time consuming. Some details on how real crimes were solved for the experts.

Had a great time on the CSI day. Great to have experienced hosts with a sense of humour as I think that is really important on the experience days. Good set up of the location and crime scene simulation. Even though it is advertised as no refreshment facilities, tea/coffee and water were provided if needed and was greatly appreciated. A great afternoon out.

CSI brought to life
Some fascinating insights are given by the presenters, into the world of crime detection. We were all given a sci kit and had the chance to experience the basic elements of crime detection work at the venue. The presenters, who were very approachable, were also really knowledgeable and informative. A perfect balance of powerpoint slides and interactive work.

Crime Scene Investigation Experience Day for Two
I enjoyed the experience. I think a full day or a morning & afternoon with a break in between maybe would have enhanced the day. There's a lot of info to take in & many questions I wanted to ask but tried to restrain myself because I was aware of time constraints. The staff were lovely, very knowledgeable & happy to answer questions. I loved the fact that we got to suit up & get hands on, but again, had there have been more time, we might have been able to try to solve the crime ourselves.

Interesting but not worth £115
Both myself & my partner enjoyed the day as a whole however we were very let down by the experience. 1.5 hours was spent talking, & of that we probably spent 5 minutes actually doing things like finger prints. Then it came to ‘solving’ the crime - awful. It was poorly staged & the room involved things unrelated to the scene (battery for laser room). We weren’t given enough time to thoroughly find clues, resulting in us being told who done it. Interesting but not worth £115 in my opinion.
