This tour was FANTASTIC. I cannot recommend it enough. Natasha was an incredible guide. She was exceptionally knowledgeable and friendly and ran a great Q&A at the conclusion of the tour during the beer tasting. The restaurants is the perfect setting for the tour and the beer was exceptional. If you’re thinking of doing a tunnels tour and enjoy history and spooky things (& beer) this is the tour for you.
