    The Loop was my favorite of all the areas we visited. Although it looks like a beautiful and normal place by day, you can't imagine all the things that happened years ago. Very interesting!

    Although it was a tour with horror content, there was no shortage of laughs! I had a very funny group. We were from about 4 different countries and we were all very interested in what the guide was telling us.
