On a CSI Experience Day, you step into the role of a crime scene investigator. Discover how the professionals work as you take on the challenge of solving a crime in this immersive full-day CSI and Forensics experience for two. Guided by experts and real case studies, you'll navigate the complexities of crime-solving while uncovering the truth behind common forensic myths. There's far more to an investigation than what you see on your favourite crime shows! These hands-on experiences are based on real-life cases and led by seasoned professionals, including active and retired crime scene investigators, senior detectives, forensic scientists, crash investigators, and major crime specialists. It’s as close to the real deal as it gets. Your day begins with a briefing at the ‘crime centre’ before diving into forensic techniques used by investigative teams. From DNA swabbing and blood analysis to fingerprint lifting and crime scene photography, you'll get a firsthand look at authentic forensic methods—and even use your own forensic kit. Our 'Ultimate' voucher includes an advanced 'Digging Deeper into Forensics' session. This segment delves into the finer details of forensic science, such as how blood spatter patterns reveal the victim's injuries and how anatomical evidence helps identify the weapon used. If you're a fan of Silent Witness, Death in Paradise, or even the sharp-witted Vera, you’ll be captivated by this thrilling and unique CSI experience.
