Unraveling Mysteries and Sipping Margaritas: A True-Crime Cruise Launching in 2026
Attention to all crime enthusiasts: A true-crime themed cruise is coming your way in 2026.
Wondery’s Exhibit C will present: A True Crime Cruise, which will be hosted on the Norwegian Cruise Line’s ship, Norwegian Joy. This exciting journey is a cooperative effort between the festival and specialty cruise company Sixthman, and renowned podcast studio Wondery, famous for series like “Dr. Death,” which has its own television adaptation, and “Scamfluencers.”
The four-night adventure will depart round-trip from Miami on January 26, 2026, with a scheduled stop in Nassau, Bahamas, as per the promotional material. Attendees can engage in a multi-day murder mystery experience provided by Mystery Men Productions, participate in self-defense classes by Adrenaline Self Defense, meet podcast hosts, and much more.
The Silver Sleuths Package, one of two available options, features meals, numerous beverages, access to engaging panels and presentations, starting at $1,335 per person (based on double occupancy).
For those opting for The Diamond Detectives Package, which caters to guests in The Haven—a luxury suite concept within the ship—additional benefits include priority booking for meet-and-greets, photo sessions, exclusive onboard programming, and more. Prices for this package start at $3,235 per person (based on double occupancy).
The organizers will offer added perks to the first 500 Wondery+ annual subscribers who book their cabins, including access to a special members-only cocktail hour and lounge.
Further details regarding activities and the lineup of featured guests will be announced in early 2025.
